This book is the polestar of Phase One of The High Republic. It takes everything built before it and delivers a heart-wrenching yet uplifting finale to the story arc. The Fallen Star not only culminates the three-story main adult novel arc of The High Republic but also hits on pieces established throughout the THR mediums from Junior Novels to Comics. This is a triumph in Star Wars literature and is not to be missed. I couldn’t put the book down on my reread and found myself crying throughout the second half of the book and sobbing through the final 2 chapters despite knowing what would happen.
