Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Discover Captain Phasma’s mysterious history in this “Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi” novel.
One of the most cunning and merciless officers of the First Order, Captain Phasma commands the favor of her superiors, the respect of her peers, and the terror of her enemies. But for all her renown, Phasma remains as virtually unknown as the impassive expression on her gleaming chrome helmet. Now, an adversary is bent on unearthing her mysterious origins—and exposing a secret she guards as zealously and ruthlessly as she serves her masters.
Deep inside the Battlecruiser Absolution, a captured Resistance spy endures brutal interrogation at the hands of a crimson-armored stormtrooper—Cardinal. But the information he desires has nothing to do with the Resistance or its covert operations against the First Order.
What the mysterious stormtrooper wants is Phasma’s past—and with it whatever long-buried scandal, treachery, or private demons he can wield against the hated rival who threatens his own power and privilege in the ranks of the First Order. His prisoner has what Cardinal so desperately seeks, but she won’t surrender it easily. As she wages a painstaking war of wills with her captor, bargaining for her life in exchange for every precious revelation, the spellbinding chronicle of the inscrutable Phasma unfolds. But this knowledge may prove more than just dangerous once Cardinal possesses it—and once his adversary unleashes the full measure of her fury.

Phasma (Star Wars)
5By Red Five $.Really Enjoyed Dawson’s Style & Delivery! Looking forward to reading “Black Spire”The Great Captain
5By Joe Bro 😎This book is awesome! I think phasma is an awesome Star Wars character and it’s really cool to know all about her interesting past! It’s kind of violent and descriptive but if you don’t have a dark imagination you’ll be fine! I would highly suggest reading this amazing story of Captain Phasma!Phasma
3By MemeticDelilah Dawson is a very good writer and she did Phasma justice by revealing the dark trooper’s past. Still, she did take an awful long time to get around to the bottom line.Plasma
5By Peasant boyIt was really helpful but gory which I’m not saying is a bad thing And I learned so much about captain phasma.Poor
1By airrobertoSave your $$$ and don’t buy. Very disappointing storytelling.Good book if you're in to knitting
2By Danny SaizThis book is about Captain Phasma from the perspective of someone who heard a story from someone else who spent a lot of time around Captain Phasma. There is only one short chapter written from Captain Phasma's perspective... but not until the end where it really doesn't matter. After reading this book, you will have an understanding of what her character is all about. So you'll have that going for you. Which is nice. Don't be afraid to skip chapters towards the end. They are very boring and add absolutely nothing to the story. You'll know it when you get there.Well written
4By bojack horseoffIt's a solid beach read if you still have the opportunity. The ending will leave you wanting more (naturally)
