I hope we get one more season like they've done with Clone Wars S7.
I need to find out what happened to Ezra and Thrawn. @Denkar98 the Thrawn in Rebels is not the same one from the books. Far too kind and not nearly as cunning.

Star Wars: Phasma is so good. Just finished and it's easily one of the best Star Wars books available. This canon novel never lets up from start to finish. Delilah S. Dawson has written a movie worthy story here. January LaVoy does an excellent narration for this audiobook. You can listen for free with the Libby app by Overdrive and your public library card right now. What are you waiting for?

Thanks for the great comments. Some very good points made on all sides. A lot to consider. I appreciate the great feedback.
Quinlan Vos, worst cultural appropriation of Native American stereotypes I've seen in Star Wars. Quinlan Vos first shows up in Clone Wars Season 3, Episode 9 Hunt for Ziro. If Lucasfilm and Disney wanted to pay homage to Native American or other North American tribes they shouldn't have a character who looks basically European but acts like stereotyped Native Americans, like those seen in the likes of early western TV serials like the character Tonto in the Lone Ranger.
Curios others thoughts about this character. Honestly always quite surprised when I see how writers and artists can completely miss the mark on character development that completely offends or continues racist and bias stereotypes.
Star Wars Ahsoka is an excellent novelization of the time taking place right after season 6 of the Clone Wars following her time after leaving the Jedi and Order 66. I highly recommend the audio version as it is narrated by Ashley Eckstein.
Ashley Eckstein is of course the voice of Ahsoka Tano on Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars Forces of Destiny, and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. She very pleasant to listen to, her voice talent is excellent both with female and male characters and she hits her marks with the action sequences in pacing and excitement. This audiobook is very well produced and a great listen.
After listening to this novelization I'm even more excited about season 7 of Clone Wars and I hope there will be some callbacks to her time on Raada. While this is a young adult novel I think you'll find Star Wars fans of all ages will enjoy this chapter in the story of Ahsoka Tano.

Yes, way more Kenobi.
Where can I buy one or three?
@Redonxulus last 1/2 of the novel was more satisfying and the end was enough to entertain. The sand people really carry this story though. In fact the sand people storylines are some of the best parts of this novel. They should have called this the Raiders of Tatooine or something because this is only a small blip in the timeline of Kenobi on Tatooine and unfortunately we don't get any insight into his years of watching over Luke Skywalker, instead we get some great backstory and connections into the history of the sand peoples. Overall a mixed bag.
@Redonxulus the first few chapters seemed solid, but then about half way I realized how few chapters are about Kenobi and actually about the townsfolk of Oasis. We'll see I may have a change of mind when I finish.
I'm about halfway through Kenobi by John Jackson Miller. It's taken half the book for the main protagonist to meet face-to-face with Obi-Won. The Oasis on Tatooine, very boring and obviously cookie cuttered from whatever Western movie the author based it on. Western towns can be more interesting than this "Oasis" is portrayed. Maybe that was the author's intention. A backwater boring place attacked by Tusken Raiders and only Obi-Wan can save the day.

@Redonxulus first few chapters of Kenobi are very good so far. @Remy5623 the Darth Bane trilogy sounds intriguing. I'll check that out. Friend was telling me the Courtship of Princess Leia was not very good actually. Hum. I guess I'll have to find out for myself.
I really enjoyed how Thrawn: Alliances is divided into two storylines. The time lines interconnect in ways that leave you hanging on for more after each chapter. It's a great storyline where Thrawn teams up with both Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader in the same novel. Think Darth Vader and a Chiss warrior can't keep a low profile on a planet where no one has heard of them? You'd be right.
Overall it's a great follow up to Star Wars: Thrawn. I can't wait to listen to the final novel, Thrawn: Treason.

Picked up the audiobook from audible today. It's in my cue to listen to soon.
Just finishing Thrawn Alliances and then I'll start Kenobi. Probably start it tomorrow. Thrawn Alliances has been a good adventure with two different timelines at play that interconnect. Hopefully finish the trilogy after Kenobi.
@Redonxulus if you have a library card a lot of libraries work with the Overdrive apps for audio books. Their new Libby app is really slick too. Makes holds on books very easy and even lets you know when you can expect your audiobook to be available. I've listened to a lot of books on audiobook for no cost from my public library. If you don't have a library card it's a really good reason to get one.
