Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Written with input from director Rian Johnson, this official adaptation of Star Wars: The Last Jedi expands on the film to include scenes from alternate versions of the script and other additional content.
From the ashes of the Empire has arisen another threat to the galaxy’s freedom: the ruthless First Order. Fortunately, new heroes have emerged to take up arms—and perhaps lay down their lives—for the cause. Rey, the orphan strong in the Force; Finn, the ex-stormtrooper who stands against his former masters; and Poe Dameron, the fearless X-wing pilot, have been drawn together to fight side-by-side with General Leia Organa and the Resistance. But the First Order’s Supreme Leader Snoke and his merciless enforcer Kylo Ren are adversaries with superior numbers and devastating firepower at their command. Against this enemy, the champions of light may finally be facing their extinction. Their only hope rests with a lost legend: Jedi Master Luke Skywalker.
Where the action of Star Wars: The Force Awakens ended, Star Wars: The Last Jedi begins, as the battle between light and dark climbs to astonishing new heights.

Reviews
I only watched the movies till here and…
5By redpandazozo14I think dat Kello REN likes Ray 😏 PUT A 🌙 ON UR REVIEW IF YOU AGREE!Expanded, but still rushed
4By BlindGeekI love the fact that scenes were added to this novel which weren’t in the film. I just wish some of the scenes translated from screenplay to novel didn’t feel so rushed. Certain sequences which I think could have benefitted from more lavish description or more fleshing-out are all but glossed over. Other than that, this is a great book. I loved the movie, and thus loved the book. Writing this novelization had to be an unenviable task, what with being hamstrung by either not knowing the next part of the story, not wanting to give too much away about the next part of the story, or both. Given these restrictions, I think an admirable job was done.Fantastic!
5By GreagoneBeautifully written. Much more interesting than any Star Wars novel I’ve read! I love the way the plot connects everything, leaving you with that “Ooh” moment at the end of the book when everything starts making sense.No valuable information to add to the movie
3By DonsolracThis book is well written, but basically a recount of the movie. No further background information about Snoke or any of the other questions left by the movie are answered. I am a long time Star Wars fan (to the point that my daughter’s middle name is Leia) and in truth this story line (Ryan Johnson’s fault, not thus author) let me down. So badly I did not even go see Solo and I am waiting for it to be released for download.The Last Jedi
5By MemeticJason Fry does an excellent job of translating George Lucas’s ideas into entertaining and believeable literature. I like his style!Mym Nmntlioxq

5By 663322567&&@97;;:yes, i can’t wait! one more day until i get to see if my theories are correct!Sooo Goood😍
5By ShockawesomeI just preordered this book. I don’t understand why I have to wait a while to get it but I don’t mind waiting because I know this is going to be a masterpiece!! I love you already Jason Fry! I’m dying to read the scenes with Rey and Kylo!!💕Hehehe
5By greenfaery11How can people review this as being horrible before it is released! Makes me laugh! I love the anticipation of wondering what the thoughts will be and the words left unsaid by the characters that is to come! Hurry up March 6th! Hope there are some warm and loving thoughts to be written surrounding the “you’re not alone” scene! Movie was fantastic, and books are always better! CANNOT WAIT!!Quit complaining
5By StopChangingCookies!Why are people complaining about the release date? The book releases later to make sure everyone sees the movie. Quit complaining.Ok,but.......
3By BobonianSo first off I can see why some people are hating on this film. Although I do not see why they can’t get over having a unique plot that kills off some characters. I do have a complaint with how Admiral Holdo refuses to tell them of her plan. This results in a rather dull part of the plot that does not amount to much. As for the plot hole with the hyperspace ram. Solo says it himself that some Firs Order shields have a refresh rate that allows for things that go faster than light to get through. I really hope some of y’all see this.Horrible
1By Jack-JackarooooWhy would I want the book if the movie was horrible? 😭😭😭😭😭 screw this.Confused???
5By Le Product ManagerI loved the movie but like with TFA and Rogue One I wanted to read the book right after to see what was left out of the final cut of the film. Reading helped with my understanding of the character’s emotions and etc. With the book coming out so FAR after the release of the Last Jedi, I am left worrying that it may have been changed in the wake of the mixed fan response… Worried, confused, but nonetheless excited to read!Can’t fix this mess
1By Anchor AlarmSince they hacked this movie the book will make it worse. And what’s the point anyways since you trashed all the other story lines from the previous books.Why next March?
3By Sev364I wish it was released on the 15th apparently it wasn't released on the 15th I saw the movie already on the 14thWhat the heck!
1By #Love trumps hateThis is stupid why have it so far away from the release date of the movie. What were they thinking?!? I for one think that Star Wars is AMAZING but why the heck have this in a month far far away... (Star Wars pun for those who get it) it’s closer to the Solo anthropology then The Last Jedi. (May Han Rest In Peace.)What? .... March 6th?
1By MetootyredsRidiculous never has a book come after... so friggin mad
