Star Wars meets Romeo and Juliet in this epic YA novel that follows two best friends who find themselves on opposite sides of the war between the Empire and the Rebellion.
This thrilling YA novel gives readers a macro view of some of the most important events in the Star Wars universe: from the purge of the Jedi in Episode III, to the beginnings of the rebellion in Star Wars Rebels, and through the fall of the Empire in Episodes IV-IV. Readers will experience these major moments through the eyes of two best friends who grow up in these troubling times, and find themselves on opposite sides of the war.
As with other Journey to Episode VII titles, hints about the upcoming film will be included in the narrative, as well a original, post-Episode VI content that sets up the new film.
DUAL NARRATIVE: Chapters alternate perspectives between our two protagonists – one a Rebel pilot, the other an Imperial officer. By exploring these two different worlds, readers will experience many of the major moments in the original Star Wars trilogy – from the destruction of the Death Star to the battle of Hoth – through these two characters' eyes.
About Claudia:
Claudia Gray is a pseudonym. I would like to say that I chose
another name so that no one would ever learn the links between my shadowy,
dramatic past and the explosive secrets revealed through my characters. This
would be a lie. In truth, I took a pseudonym simply because I thought it would
be fun to choose my own name. (And it is.)
I write novels full-time, absolutely love it, and hope to be
able to do this forever. My home is in New Orleans, is more than 100 years old,
and is painted purple. In my free time I read, travel, hike, cook and listen to
music. You can keep up with my latest releases, thoughts on writing and various
pop-culture musings via Twitter, Tumblr, Pinterest, Goodreads or
(of course) my own home page.
If you want to contact me, you can email me, but your best bet
is probably to Tweet me. I don’t do follows on Twitter, but I follow everyone
back on Tumblr, Pinterest and Goodreads.
