The Legends of Luke Skywalker

From the publisher:

As a cargo ship rockets across the galaxy to Canto Bight, the deckhands on board trade stories about legendary Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker. But are the stories of iconic and mysterious Luke Skywalker true, or merely tall tales passed from one corner of the galaxy to another? Is Skywalker really a famous Jedi hero, an elaborate charlatan, or even part droid? The deckhands will have to decide for themselves when they hear The Legends of Luke Skywalker. A collection of myths and tall-tales about the legendary Jedi Luke Skywalker, written by Nebula, Hugo, and World Fantasy award-winning author Ken Liu.

The illustrations are by J.G. Jones.

There is an audio version narrated by January LaVoy.

Media on The Legends of Luke Skywalker

MC of What the Force did some interviews with me about the book, focusing on its mythmaking aspects.

The Star Wars Show Book Club featured The Legends of Luke Skywalker (with panelists Jenny Ely, Cavan Scott, and Christopher Sean), and I got to chat with host Kristin Baver in an interview about Luke Skywalker, what is “canon,” the power of storytelling, and lots of other topics near and dear to my heart.
