The book will be released in October 2017 as part of the celebration of Star Wars‘ 40th anniversary. The book will consist of 40 stories and each will be told from the perspective of background characters from A New Hope – “from X-wing pilots who helped Luke destroy the Death Star to the stormtroopers who never quite could find the droids they were looking for.” It seems like a fun way to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the galaxy far, far way.
