Description



Book Synopsis



Now a New York Times best-seller!


Long before the Clone Wars, the Empire, or the First Order, the Jedi lit the way for the galaxy in a golden age known as the High Republic!

Vernestra Rwoh is a new Jedi Knight at age sixteen, but her first real assignment feels an awful lot like babysitting. She's been charged with supervising twelve-year old aspiring inventor Avon Starros on a cruiser headed to the dedication of a wondrous new space station called Starlight Beacon.

But soon into their journey, bombs go off aboard the cruiser. While the adult Jedi try to save the ship, Vernestra, Avon, Avon's droid J-6, a Jedi Padawan, and an ambassador's son make it to an escape shuttle, but communications are out and supplies are low. They decide to land on a nearby moon, which offers shelter but not much more. And unbeknownst to them, danger lurks in the forest....

Rich internal third-person dialogue reveals dollops of inner turmoil for each character at key moments as well as providing some much-needed world-building to make this a winning choice. A great read for Star Wars fans young and old. -- Kirkus Reviews
The comfort food that a Star Wars adventure ought to provide. -- SlashFilm

A Great Book for Jedi Young and Old

Helping to kick off a new era of Star Wars, A Test of Courage is a fantastic look into young minds in a galaxy far, far away as the Republic is threatened by a new relentless terror. As an adult Star Wars fan, I was hesitant to pick up this book, fearing I was outside its targeted audience. I couldn't have been more wrong. The connections to other stories in this era help fill out perspectives and events happening simultaneously with things touched upon in Charles Soule's The Light of the Jedi. The place this book shines, though, is with its characters. Their distinct (and entertaining) personalities and the challenges they must overcome make this a great book for readers young and old.
