Lauded Star Wars author James Luceno returns to pen an intense tale
of ambition and betrayal that sets the stage for Rogue One: A Star
Wars Story. War is tearing the galaxy apart. For years the Republic
and the Separatists have battled across the stars, each building
more and more deadly technology in an attempt to win the war. As a
member of Chancellor Palpatine's top secret Death Star project,
Orson Krennic is determined to develop a superweapon before their
enemies can. And an old friend of Krennic's, the brilliant
scientist Galen Erso, could be the key. Galen's energy-focused
research has captured the attention of both Krennic and his foes,
making the scientist a crucial pawn in the galactic conflict. But
after Krennic rescues Galen, his wife, Lyra, and their young
daughter, Jyn, from Separatist kidnappers, the Erso family is
deeply in Krennic's debt. Krennic then offers Galen an
extraordinary opportunity: to continue his scientific studies with
every resource put utterly at his disposal. While Galen and Lyra
believe that his energy research will be used purely in altruistic
ways, Krennic has other plans that will finally make the Death Star
a reality. Trapped in their benefactor's tightening grasp, the
Ersos must untangle Krennic's web of deception to save themselves
and the galaxy itself.
