List of Star Wars books

Last updated

Star Wars is an American epic space-opera media franchise, centered on a film series created by George Lucas that includes Star Wars (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and Return of the Jedi (1983). The series depicts the adventures of various characters "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away". Many derivative Star Wars works have been produced in conjunction with, between, and after the original trilogy of films, and later installments. This body of work was collectively known as the Star Wars Expanded Universe for decades.

Contents

In October 2012, The Walt Disney Company acquired Lucasfilm for $4.06 billion. [1] [2] [3] In April 2014, Lucasfilm rebranded the Expanded Universe material as Star Wars Legends and declared it non-canon to the Star Wars' franchise. The company's focus would be shifted towards a restructured Star Wars canon based on new material. [4] [5] [6] The first new canon adult novel was Star Wars: A New Dawn by John Jackson Miller, published in September 2014. [7]

This is a list of original novels, novel adaptations, original junior novels, junior novel adaptations, young readers, and short stories in the Star Wars franchise. This list does not include journals, graphic novels or comic books, which can be found in the list of Star Wars comic books. Reference books and roleplaying gamebooks can be found at the list of Star Wars reference books.

Fictional timeline abbreviations

  • BBY : Before the Battle of Yavin, prior to the culminating event of the original 1977 Star Wars film
  • ABY : After the Battle of Yavin, events following the original 1977 Star Wars film

Maturity rating abbreviations

  • AA : Adult audiences.
  • YA : Young readers; typically shorter than an adult novel, and accessible for younger audiences.
  • EB : eBook; originally released as digital short stories, but may be included with other novels.

Film, television and video game adaptations

The novelizations offer alternate takes on the events of the movies, with many including discarded or slightly altered plotlines. Those published before 25 April 2014 are considered Legends like all other media.
