![]() ![]() One of the best parts of Timelines is its inclusion of all Star Wars stories – not just the ones from the films and TV shows. There’s even a spread dedicated to Thrawn and the Chiss Ascendancy, which is a bright blue visual treat. There are spreads for the history of the Skywalker lightsaber and the creation and theft of the Death Star plans. The book also charts the histories of specific characters, groups of people and alien species, and even objects and ships. Timelines plots all of the major eras, of course - from the Old Republic and The High Republic to the Fall of the Jedi and the rise of the Empire (prequels), the Era of the Empire (original trilogy and Rebels), to the Rise of the First Order (sequels). Star Wars Timelines seeks to clear up a lot of that confusion by bringing together all the major events, characters, and even objects into one book that plots their journeys on the canon timeline. But for others, the Star Wars timeline is a sacred text, and it very much matters how many years before or after the Battle of Yavin something occurs (BBY or ABY). For many fans, when something happens isn’t as important as how or why it happened. ![]() One of the things that Star Wars fans love to argue over - beyond pitting new canon content against the former Expanded Universe - is when things occur on the timeline, a.k.a. There’s also so much more in between those eras, which are set tens of thousands of years apart. Spanning the entire Star Wars timeline, the book charts the galaxy’s earliest history - the time of the Old Republic and the dawn of the Jedi - to the most recent events like the fall of the First Order in The Rise of Skywalker. With the release of Star Wars Timelines this week, galactic history fans finally have the most detailed and comprehensive reference book seen in over a decade. Any and all support from fellow Star Wars nerds is greatly appreciated! *Note: The guide is a paid subscriber post, but I always offer a free trial for new subscribers.

Phase 3: Specific dates TBD, but it’s confirmed this phase will return to the stories and characters of Phase 1 - so, books and comics will likely be set around or after 230 BBY Phase 2: 382 BBY (over 350 years before the Battle of Yavin around 150 years before Phase 1)īegins with Path of Deceit and ends with Path of Vengeance - both young adult novels Phase 1: 232-230 BBY (over 200 years before the Battle of Yavin)īegins with Light of the Jedi and ends with The High Republic: Eye of the Storm comic ![]() Think of Phase 1 as the original trilogy films and Phase 2 as the prequel films. Phase 1 was released first, but occurs after Phase 2. ![]()
