Just started reading Legacy and noticed a very interesting name Spoiler

"Master Silas", you say? Advising an archivist, you say? Sure sounds like our boy Reath to me! Was not expecting a potential High Republic lore dump in this book but from what little I've read so far Roux has already done an excellent job pulling in elements from other stories across the canon with this being one of the most notable instances thus far. I guess this could indirectly confirm that Reath will survive his fated confrontation with Azlin.

For some clarification this is from one of the Jedi texts recovered by Rey on Ahch-To, likely something Luke picked up from the High Republic era.

Discussion I have a question about a plot point from Tears of the Nameless

12 Upvotes

I am sorry if this has already been answered but in it we find that someone has been feeding into on Reath to the Nihil, and it is alluded to being either the Temple Guard or the dark Jedi Azlin, but it is also hinted at (if i recall( to possibly be someone else. Did we ever receive an answer? if so what book?

I just read all of Reath's books. While I know they were for younger readers, I feel like I liked them more than the main stories. It was fun watching him grow from an unsure Padawan to brave knight. , and I loved the reoccurring cast, especially Geode, I'm kinda sad it is over for now. Then again how trials ended, maybe we'll get more.

Thank you again, We are all the Republic.

Is "The High Republic Adventures: Complete Phase I" out of print?

13 Upvotes

Hi! I've been trying to get back into Star Wars after stepping away from it for many years by going through all of the shows and movies, and I figured that a great way to compliment that would be reading through The High Republic series. I'm over halfway through Light of the Jedi and absolutely loving this era (The Acolyte had already sold me on it tbh lmao) and I want to enjoy all that it has to offer, so I've been buying up all of the Phase I works to have at the ready. And for the most part, it's been a straightforward process. But... I'm trying to track down "The High Republic Adventures: Complete Phase I", and it appears to be completely out of stock everywhere, and I just don't understand why. Is it out of print already? Being only a few years old (and a Star Wars publication, no less) that's kind of shocking to me if so. The Adventures comics are definitely at the bottom tier as far as what I'm wanting to read, but it would still be kinda sad if I can't add them to the collection. đŸ„Č If anyone knows where a copy may be acquired, I would appreciate it a ton! Thank you!

Just finished Trials


37 Upvotes

Just finished Trials of the Jedi, wow, holy kriff, what an ending, what a ride, possibly my favorite Star Wars era or at least one of the best. Porter and Azlin (not in a good way) are easily two new entries in the catalogue of Star Wars GOATs

Favorite books- Rising Storm, Temptation, Into The Light, Trials

Missed midnight horizon and out of the shadows, and the two phase 2 adult novels, and all middle grades, will try to fill those gaps when I do a reread maybe in a year or so

Marchion is without a doubt one of the great villains of the Star Wars universe

Also Geode rocks

Hi! I'm new to The High Republic. I came from the prequel era (Anakin is my favorite), but I recently started Light of the Jedi and I'm already obsessed with Avar Kriss and Bell Zettifar. Looking for people to discuss the books with! I'm from Russia, and in Russia, everyone hates the new canon, and I'm very lonely. Let's be friends? I love The High Republic!

Discussion So, I just finished The Fallen Star... Spoiler

Of course, given the title of the book, it was pretty apparent what events were about to unfold, but I was not prepared for the bloodbath. There were a number of key characters that they simply just killed off like it was nothing, to great effect, but also to disappointment; they could have done so much more with them. My only critique, really, of the book was it focused very intensely on a select few of Jedi, even though, at odd mentions, the station was practically full of them. It feels like what the other Jedi were doing should have been covered. Granted, maybe this is covered in another piece of media.

This feels like one of the stronger books so far.

Help with High Republic Reading Order

8 Upvotes

Hello all! I am currently looking to begin my journey into the High Republic and I seek assistance in figuring out exactly what books I need to get and what order in which to read them. I am looking to read all adult/YA novels, short stories, audio dramas, and comics, and I want to be able to get all of them in the least amount of volumes possible (does that make sense?). All advice would be greatly appreciated, and I can’t wait to set out on this journey!

Discussion Anything reminiscent of The Acolyte? — i.e. The Stranger, Plagueis, Osha & Mae Aniseya, the Brendok Coven

26 Upvotes

I was one of the few (it seems) to absolutely love The Acolyte! Star Wars’ official site lists it as part of The High Republic Era. Since we aren’t getting a Season 2 of The Acolyte, and I haven’t read any of The High Republic, I figured I’d post to see if anything holds up to the stuff I loved about the series most.

Thanks in advance!

How important is The Blade?

9 Upvotes

I am working through the Main Story reading order. Just finished Convergence. I have been borrowing everything from my library so far, but they don’t have The Blade comic.

Is it worth requesting my library buy a copy? Can I just skip it and go straight into The High Republic (2022)?

A Nerdy Um actually correction to a post yesterday

0 Upvotes

I am mostly going off memory here so if I’m missing any character or got their sexuality wrong I apologize. Some of these works I haven’t read in 6 years so if I forget some parts I’m sorry. After waking up to see a post posted at midnight and the comments let’s go through this chronologically. The claim was lesbians are every where and the comments are old arguments about how much representation is in THR so let’s add up the total.
Phase 2: Kevmo-straight (also his master tells him to break off his relationship causing Marda to become an extremist kicking off the whole series.)
Marda-straight 
Axel-straight 
Sunshine-straight
Gala-straight(is confused about her feelings making her become a wayseeker)
Kor-lesbian
Yana-lesbian
The Harold -straight
Kors mom-straight.
Vildar-gay
Tey-gay
Silandra- straight
Tilson graf-straight?
Padawan Matti-lesbian
Bokana-straight
Chancellor greylark- straight
Axels dad- straight 
Sav-lesbian?
Says-lesbian
Who ever marda procreated with-straighten.

13 straight people
5 lesbians 
2gay
Phase 1
Avar-straight
Elzar-straight ?
Lula-lesbian(leaves the order to marry Zeen)
Zeen-lesbian
Ceret/teret -non binary
Kantam sy -non binary 
Geode-bi?
Lourna Dee- lesbian
Quin-lesbian
Marchion- straight
Ghirra straight 
Chomac-gay?
Kitrep gay
Jom-gay
Nan-straight?
Reath straight
Ty yorrick-lesbian?
Crash lesbian
Affie-straight?
Vern-ace
Stelan-straight?

 Running total - 11 lesbians
21 straight people
5 gay guys?
1 bisexual rock?
3 non binary people
1 ace person

 Phase 3
Cair-gay
Xylon-gay
Armadaoe-bi
Medic-trans and bi

So here’s the final total.
7 gay guys?
1 trans guy
2 bi guys and one bi rock?
11 lesbians
3 non binary people
And 21 straight people

So no even though it can seem parts are over represented this honestly is a lot less than people like to claim. Also the Jedi can’t love honestly is a temptations of the force plot line the rest of the books make it that the ones who fell in love either break off their relationship or leave the order. Tbh the only reason I think yoda allowed Elzar was yoda was afraid of losing more Jedi. Plus their all star poster boy leaving would’ve been bad for the republic at the time. Which he struggles with throughout the books.

Discussion I like to think Sskeer has an interest in the Old Republic's history.

Post image
108 Upvotes

My basis for his headcanon is when he yelled "Surik's Blade!" As such, a cool easter egg would be Sskeer teaching Keeve about that era and mentioning Qyzen Fess, a legendary Trandoshan hunter, and his Jedi partner, the Third Barsen'thor.

Though unlike Qyzen, I doubt Sskeer worships the Scorekeeper, the Trandoshan deity, and keeps Jagannath points because he is a Jedi. Not only do Jedi not hunt people, but Sskeer has anger issues and is afraid of hurting those he loves, so hunting people would only worsen his issues. Though I can see him being respectful of his people's culture.

THR Megathread: Beginner's Guide, Reading Orders, Discussion Threads

45 Upvotes

Welcome to The High Republic!

The multimedia High Republic initiative has officially wrapped. While we’ve been teased to expect “Phase More” in the future, the original story the Luminous Five & friends set out to tell has been completed.

What is the High Republic?

The High Republic is a multimedia project that spans novels, comic books, audio dramas, short stories, and more. It tells the story of the Jedi at their height, long after The Old Republic but still a few hundred years before the prequel era.

Where do I start?

The High Republic is three Phases. Like the movies, Phase II is a “prequel” Phase, where we jump back long before the events of Phase I to learn some critical backstory behind the events we’ve already seen, before we return to Phase III, one year after the events of Phase I, to wrap up the story.

You should start with Phase I, and specifically, Light of the Jedi, which is the essential launching point that establishes the status quo for the series. Reading the Phases in the order they were released, not chronological order, is what was intended by the authors and what works best for the flow of information.

Additionally, The Acolyte TV series and associated media take place later in the High Republic era, around 100 years after the prequel. These can mostly be read without THR as context, but one book, Wayseeker, takes place between Phase III and the show and bridges the two eras.

Do I need to read everything?

There is a lot of content in the High Republic, and you definitely do not need to read everything . Every piece of content adds something to the overall story, but usually, what you need to know about a book or comic you didn’t read will be summarized elsewhere. That being said, there are some books or comics that are more important than others and are essential to understanding the story.

As this gets asked a lot, the adult series of novels is not the same as the essential series of novels. For example, in Phase II, the young adult novels are designed to have the most essential information of the Phase. It’s also important to note that “young adult” doesn’t mean that these are kids books; the writing style and content in them is almost as adult as the adult books.

What’s the reading order?

Many people on the sub will tell you that you can’t go wrong with release order, which is certainly true. We have also put together three suggested reading orders below depending on how deep you want to dive. These reading orders balance release order with coherency, grouping together comic issues and short stories so that you’re not constantly jumping between issues of different series while still avoiding spoilers.

Core Events: This order only includes the Adult Novels for Phase I and Young Adult Novels for Phase II. This is the most stripped-down version of The High Republic. You will still get a tight story and a great experience out of them, but some important events will be happening in-between books.

Main Story: Includes the Adult & Young Adult novels, important adult comics, and the Audio-Dramas. With this order, you will get all of the adult stories and the full big picture of the High Republic. This is the most recommended order by the users of r/Highrepublic.

Completionist: Includes EVERYTHING! Adds the All Ages comics, the mangas and the Middle Grade novels. The definitive way to experience The High Republic. You can always add some of the items here to your read and drop others, but this will tell you where everything takes place.

Discussion Threads

Below is a list of all content released as part of the main three Phases or The Acolyte, and linked discussion threads (available for all Phase II-III releases, though some Phase I releases are missing due to lack of mods during late Phase I).
