Wir sind wieder da aus der Sommerpause! Und wir starten direkt mit einem Werk, bei dem wir ordentlich Gesprächsbedarf haben. In Die Kristallkrone von Tessa Gratton erleben Jecki und Yord aus The Acolyte ein Abenteuer, welches vor der Serie spielt (logischerweise, bedenkt man ihr Schicksal). Doch die Story nimmt nie wirklich Fahrt auf und wirkt fast wie eine Parodie ihrer offiziellen Inspiration. Denn als The Hunger Games im Star Wars-Universum wird das Ganze im Klappentext angepriesen. Stattdessen: Gähnende Langeweile und am Ende kaum nachvollziehbare Intrigen. Genug Anlass, dass sich Ines und Tobias auf das Werk stürzen wie ein Lylek auf eine privilegierte Jugendgruppe auf einem entspannten Camping-Trip. Wir sprechen darüber, warum wir so enttäuscht waren. Wieso allein schon der Ablauf der Spiele unlogisch erscheint und warum wir uns nicht erklären können, wieso Tessa Gratton das Werk so in den Sand gesetzt hat. Es geht um die Frage, warum weder Handlung noch Charakterentwicklung stattfinden und die wenige, die wir bekommen, oft zu konsequenzlos bleibt. Und um die Überlegung, ob die besondere Eigenschaft einer Figur nicht das Gegenteil dessen bewirken könnte, was sie eigentlich intendiert.

Juli 2025 auf Englisch bei Disney Lucasfilm Press Am 23. September 2025 erscheint die deutsche Version bei Panini Ein englischsprachiges Hörbuch, gesprochen von Kristen DiMercurio, erscheint am 28. Oktober 2025 Die Rezension Ines hat das Werk nach Release für euch rezensiert. Nach ihrer anfänglichen Faszination und hohen Erwartung aufgrund ihrer Liebe für The Hunger Games, kam die Ernüchterung dann umso härter. Sie reümiert daher: "Ich bin mit positiven Erwartungen an The Crystal Crown herangegangen, doch nach einigem interessanten Worldbuilding und Build-up kam dann nichts mehr. Ich bin wirklich ziemlich enttäuscht, wie man aus dem eigentlich immer packenden Battle-Royale-Prinzip so wenig Spannung herausholen kann. Ein absurdes Finale setzt dem Ganzen die Kristallkrone auf, sodass ich leider nur zwei von fünf Holocrons vergeben kann."

Our August piece is by novelist (and Fansplaining SDCC 2025 panelist!) Tessa Gratton, about navigating the intersections of the fan and pro writing worlds, and how their queerness shapes their framings of these worlds. "The Fan, the Pro, and the Spaces In Between" by Tessa Gratton. Writing for Star Wars challenges me to interrogate fandom power dynamics—and figure out where I fall in a rapidly shifting landscape.

In this episode, Tessa takes us on a trip down memory lane as we take a deep dive into all things Temptation of the Force. Along the way we chat about the writing process, the camaraderie between The High Republic Authors, and just how much heart and soul it takes to write a novel of this magnitude. Tessa also brings us through the monumental task of reuniting two fan favourites in Elzar Mann and Avar Kriss.

Liam and Sanak review the latest book in The High Republic multimedia initiative, Temptation of the Force by Tessa Gratton. In this book, the Jedi and the Republic look to press their advantage against the Nihil after Avar Kriss and Avon Starros both found ways past the Storm Wall in The Eye of Darkness and Defy the Storm. Meanwhile, Elzar Mann must grapple with the decisions he's made in the previous books as he's offered Stellan Gios's seat on the Jedi High Council. The book also picks up with new developments from Defy the Storm, as Marchion Ro becomes infatuated with the blight seen in that young adult novel. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/starwarslads/support
