Star Wars: A New Dawn is a Star Wars novel by John Jackson Miller, published in September 2014. A prequel to the animated television series Star Wars Rebels, it introduces the characters Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla. A New Dawn was the first novel published in the franchise after Lucasfilm redefined Star Wars continuity in April 2014.

Overview

Set ten years after the events of the 2005 film Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith and five years before Star Wars Rebels, A New Dawn introduces the television series characters Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla.[1]

Publication

With the 2012 acquisition of Lucasfilm by The Walt Disney Company, most of the licensed Star Wars novels and comics produced since the 1983 film Return of the Jedi were declared non-canon to the franchise in April 2014.[1][2][3][4] A New Dawn was subsequently announced as the first of four canon novels to be released in 2014 and 2015.[1][4]
