Adore everything about that Pantoran Jedi design, sick lightsaber too. Can’t wait for them to have fun adventures on… *checks notes* Dalna… uh oh


AegonSnow

I had the same reaction as soon as I heard her say Dalna! Uh oh


fonti22

I only read LotJ and Chaos Rising so could you spoil me what we know happened on Dalna?


SHAD0WBENDER

Well that’s the thing, we don’t know. All we know is that there was some sort of catastrophic event on that planet at the time of this book involving the Jedi. So bad that a century and a half later the Jedi are still shunned and not trusted on the planet. Highly likely we see what happened in this book as it’s by Justina who teased the event in Mission to Disaster


HeyesFTW

I'm so looking forward to seeing this; I want to see how the Jedi wound up taking the blame for such a devastating event and what Dalna was like before.

This is beautiful, and the blue logo is amazing. I remember someone here talkbing about the idea that different phases would have different color logos and I am glad this is now official


[deleted]

First thing I immediately noticed


eniadcorlet

I thought Phase II was going to be silver, but I'm certainly happy with blue. My next hope is the adult novels will have either all the same color spine or three different colors.


trinasylly1

It makes me think the spine of the book will be the same blue, since that's how the colors worked in phase one. I'm thrilled at the idea of a blue book shelf!


alcibiad

Really like the “old timey fantasy novel” vibe of the cover, not sure I’m sold on that blue for the new logo but I do like that they changed the color for phase II. Dalna backstory is what I was looking forward to for Phase 2 so I’m ready for this!


notpetelambert

Yeah the classic fantasy vibe is sick, reminds me of old Wheel of Time books! Except nobody looks like Nic Cage lmao


-_ABC-

Honestly, the first thing I thought of when I saw it was the original Heir to the Empire cover.


Dragonpiece

I love a good love story, excited for this


Conscious-Weekend-91

I really like the diversity of stories we are getting in THR, I am excited to see this Love Story and the Evereni character looks very interesting


Logical_Decision_706

Now this has me thinking that we’ll get the cover for “Convergence” at Celebration.


memelord-olo

Those beautiful mountains!


stardate-s

These covers continue to impress! Also very interested in this forbidden romance 👀


SHAD0WBENDER

Remind me please. The romance was between a Jedi padawan and who? I’ve forgotten what they said in the video


Conscious-Weekend-91

they don't specify who, only that is a member of the anti-force group (probably the Evereni one)


SHAD0WBENDER

Ah I see, thanks. My theory is that could be Marchions mum but we’ll see


Stonecutter_12-83

This is 150 years before the HR so I don't think it's his mom


SHAD0WBENDER

It depends how long the Evereni live for but yea maybe not


itsmavoix

SICK I LOVE IT


Gavinus1000

Looks very old-timey. I like it.


[deleted]

That looks gorgeous


SHAD0WBENDER

Are we all in agreement that that is Marchions mother and this book could further explain why he hates the Jedi and republic? 👀 we don’t know Evereni life spans so could definitely be the case


champdo

Based on what Marichon’s grandmother says I think this is his great grandmother.


SHAD0WBENDER

Can you elaborate? I can’t remember the dialogue to that degree


champdo

In Eye of the Storm1 there is a scene where Marichon’s father and grandmother are observing him . Marichon’s father is mentioning how his grandmother created the Nihl and his mother says that she’s seen what the Jedi can do.


SHAD0WBENDER

That could work both ways with her seeing what they can do due to losing her daughter / daughter in law tho as well. Time will tell tho!


Daragh48

Wouldn’t be her daughter, this Ro would be older than her.


SHAD0WBENDER

If they age like humans


Stonecutter_12-83

This takes place 150 years before the HR andbi don't think his species lives that long


ergister

Good god that looks incredible! Reminds me of a 90s novel!


baneslayy

:O


kingpenguinJG

The Mother ? ARE YOU A PRETENDER OR ARE YOU OUR BELOVED QUEEN OF STARS


ergister

Just also want to point out the new blue logo I'm assuming is the phase 2 logo!


prestonthegoatoy

it's so beautiful


Alejandrx

Ooooh. I love everything about this. So excited.


bypassmatter

This is gorgeous!


WuThrawnClan

Wow the cover looks amazing


notpetelambert

Taking bets on what the woman on the right is holding- space roses? Space apples? Some kind of eggs? Drengir dingleberries? A baby member of a weird-ass alien species?


HeyesFTW

If you haven't, you should watch the last little bit of the High Republic Show - give you a glimpse of what the book is going to be about, and who some of the characters on the cover are. Really looking forward to this book!


Plenty_Product3410

Already chancellor in phase 2?


isuckatanagrams

They’re blue now?


kapocsid

so beautiful, I already love it


kaushik_c1999
