SkyeWalkers: A Clone Wars Story

SkyeWalkers: A Clone Wars Story is a Clone Wars-themed novella written by Abel G. Peña. Originally commissioned for Hyperspace: The Official Star Wars Fan Club in 2011, it served as a prequel to the 1979 story Star Wars Annual 1: The Long Hunt, written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Mike Vosburg. The creation of SkyeWalkers: A Clone Wars Story lasted three years, which explains why Peña was absent from publishing between 2008 and 2011. That project, however, was put on hold for several years, and the novella was only released on StarWars.com in 2015, as part of "The Other Lost Missions: Rare Clone Wars Comics and Literature, Part 2."

SkyeWalkers recounts how Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Halagad Ventor were sent to the planet of Skye, over which the genetics terrorist Zeta Magnus had take control. The Jedi managed to defeat the mad scientist with the help of Skye's natives, the S'kytri, and a squad of clone commandos. The novella also includes "Lone Wolf," a narrative of Obi-Wan Kenobi facing the realities of a Jedi outcast in the immediate aftermath of the Clone Wars.
