Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

The Sunday Times Bestseller takes readers beyond the cinematic experience with a novel that includes fresh scenes and extensive additions. As the ominous presence of the Empire swells across the galaxy, alarming rumors begin to surface. The Rebel Alliance uncovers a malevolent Imperial scheme that's designed to subjugate entire planets. Deep within the Empire's stronghold, a cataclysmic machine is nearing its final stages—a weapon of destructive capacity so immense, it defies comprehension. Amid such daunting threats, the embattled worlds have a single hope, relying on an improbable group of heroes: Jyn Erso, a spirited young woman driven by a quest for revenge; Cassian Andor, a seasoned rebel commander burdened by war; Bodhi Rook, a turncoat from the Empire's ranks; Chirrut Imwe, a blind spiritual warrior teamed with his vigilant companion, Baze Malbus; and K-2SO, an Imperial droid who has betrayed its creators. This collective holds the potential to shift the tide in the Rebellion's favor—should they manage to acquire the schematics of the Empire's latest weapon. Yet, while they hasten toward their perilous objective, a formidable adversary looms large, an entity as vast as a planet itself, poised to unleash the Empire's merciless rule with an obliteration befitting its foreboding title: the Death Star.
