The prequel trilogy of Star Wars films (and similar material set in the same time period) introduced audiences to plenty of new Jedi, with one of the most striking being Samuel L. Jackson’s Mace Windu. Though he’s one of the most important players of that era, he hasn’t always gotten a chance to headline a story all on his own: the only novel in which he’s a leading man was 2004's Shatterpoints by Matt Stover.
Lucasfilm has opted to change that with a brand new novel all about Mace. Star Wars: The Glass Abyss by Steven Barnes, the book will pick up some time after The Phantom Menace and see Mace reeling from Qui-Gon Jinn’s death. When a message from the late Jedi asks for Mace by name to go to the Outer Rim world of Metagos, Mace sets out to fulfill his friend’s last wish. But the situation on the planet is complicated—namely, the planet’s surface is irradiated glass thanks to a solar flare, and the Sa’ad farming clan that Qui-Gon was protecting has enemies who need being dealt with.
