- Description
- Author Bio
The aces of the New Republic have one final chance to defeat the darkness of Shadow Wing in this thrilling conclusion to the Star Wars: Alphabet Squadron trilogy!
In the wake of Yrica Quell’s shocking decision—and one of the fiercest battles of their lives—the remnants of Alphabet Squadron seek answers and closure across a galaxy whose old war scars are threatening to reopen.
Soran Keize has returned to the tip of Shadow Wing’s spear. Operation Cinder, the terrifying protocol of planetary extermination which began in the twilight of the Imperial era, burns throughout the galaxy. Shadow Wing is no longer wounded prey fleeing the hunters of the New Republic. With its leader, its strength has returned, and its Star Destroyers and TIE squadrons lurk in the darkness between stars, carrying out the fallen Emperor’s final edict of destruction—as well as another, stranger mission, one Keize has championed not for the dying Empire, but for its loyal soldiers.
Alphabet Squadron’s ships are as ramshackle and damaged as their spirits, but they’ve always had each other. Now, as they face the might of Keize’s reborn juggernaut, they aren’t even sure they have that. How do you catch a shadow? How do you kill it? And when you’re finally victorious, who pays the price?

Story Locale: The Star Wars Galaxy
MARVEL COMICS CROSSOVER EVENT: The Rebellion story in the Alphabet Squadron trilogy is mirrored in the crossover Marvel comics series, TIE Fighter, which tells the Empire’s side of the story. Shared characters and events appear in both stories, raising the profile of both the comics and the books.
THE FINAL CONFRONTATION: As the first Star Wars Novel trilogy since Star Wars: Aftermath (2016), the story of Alphabet Squadron is a truly epic one. Fans who loved the first two entries will be eager to experience the conclusion to this trilogy-spanning story.
GROWING AUDIENCE: Del Rey will give away over 4,000 copies of the first Alphabet Squadron at conventions this year to hook new fans on the series.
POST-RETURN OF THE JEDI SETTING: This novel takes place in the aftermath of the Original Trilogy, an era whose events receive intense speculation from fans. The desire to bridge the gap between the original and sequel trilogies will drive interest.
GENERAL HERA RETURNS: Popular Star Wars: Rebels character Hera Syndulla retuns as a mentor for the pilots of Alphabet Squadron.
X-WING NOSTALGIA: Like the new Thrawn series, the scope and material of this new trilogy hearken back to some of the most successful Star Wars books of Del Rey’s past, including the beloved X-wing series of novels.
PRAISE FOR ALPHABET SQUADRON: “Every fan who wants a taste of what the future of Star Wars has in store for us should read this novel.”—Star Wars News Net; “There’s a lot to love about Alphabet Squadron and you’ll be left wanting more in the best way possible.”—Cinelinx; “Alphabet Squadron is a wondrously constructed, character focused adventure that marries high flying thrills with respect and reverence for its subjects, and I can’t wait until we see the next title announcement soaring across our feeds.”—Youtini
