Alice White (@alicewhitethp) and Buddy Duquesne (@buddy_duquesne) have read the first thirteen chapters of Catalyst by James Luceno and have many thoughts and feelings! This section of the book follows the very attractive and fascinating couple Galen and Lyra Erso through the birth of their child Jyn (sounds familiar), their imprisonment by the Separatists and their rescue by none other than Orson Krennic, and their struggle to find a safe foothold during the end days of the Clone Wars.
