Sean Stewart

Sean Stewart is an American-Canadian author. Stewart made his first entry into the Star Wars universe with the Clone Wars novel Yoda: Dark Rendezvous.^[1]

According to Steward, he had been interested in writing a Star Wars story that started with the phrase "the Force is weak in this one" since he was twelve years old.^[2] As he was finishing Yoda: Dark Rendezvous,^[3] specifically two days after he turned it in according to his later recollection,^[4] he moved onto the Halo project I Love Bees, which lead to Stewart drawing links between the Jedi Order and Halo Spartans, which affected how he wrote I Love Bees.^[3] He was surprised that he was able to find this connection, pointing to the origin story of both groups^[4] in that both Jedi and Spartians began their new life as children.^[3]
