Thrawn: Remnant - a Thrawn’s War novella

Title: Star Wars: Thrawn: Remnant
Author: Sinrebirth

Genre: Space Opera
Time Frame: During the events of Ahsoka, late 16 ABY in Legends
Characters: Ensemble Cast across Legends and Disney Canon

Summary: After more than a decade trapped on Peridea, Grand Admiral Thrawn is poised to return to the galaxy at large. He will have to be a quick study, for since he has been in exile, the Galactic Empire has fell, Emperor Palpatine has been finally slain, and even a clone of Thrawn has been defeated. In a galaxy divided between the New Republic and Imperial Remnants, it is his clone's legacy which will cause him the greatest issue... can he overcome it?

Author's Notes: This book is to be read in tandem with Ahsoka season 1 and 2, the Black Fleet Crisis and New Rebellion. It is intended to end before the events of Hand of Thrawn: Vision of the Future.

Special thanks: @Delpheas and @darthbernael for proofreading and being a sounding board.

House Keeping!

1. Ben Solo is the fourth child of Han and Leia. He was born one year after Dark Empire: Empire's End, from Legends. This coincides with the Battle of Jakku in Canon. In that respect, all Canon post-Endor references begin from the Battle of Onderon, not the Battle of Endor. So anything set, for example, five years after Endor in Canon actually takes place in 15 ABY, such as Mandalorian season one.
2. The Yuuzhan Vong War lasted four years.
3. The Legacy of the Force novels take place in their original timeline placement i.e. 37 ABY, as mentioned in Betrayal.
4. Episode VII: The Force Awakens, takes place in 41 ABY.
5. The final death of a character in the timeline is considered their final appearance, so any contradictions will be smoothed out.

 

Back Page Blurb

As Grand Admiral Thrawn returns from Peridea he finds a galaxy that has much changed in the last decade. In the place of the Empire stands a New Republic, with Palpatine dead, and much of the galaxy standing independent, waiting to see the if the galactic order will prevail in the long term.

Five years after the Battle of Jakku, Thrawn must come to know his enemies and allies - Chief of State Leia Organa, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, Captain Han Solo, yes, but he must decide what to make of Chancellor Mon Mothma, Grand Vizier Mas Amedda, Grand Inquisitor Tremayne, Admirals Ackbar, Pellaeon, Daala, Parck and Sloane.

For even opponents can be levers, and allies can be impediments - but his ultimate foe will be the Legacy of Palpatine, incarnate in the most surprising form… and Thrawn will discover that his dead clone may have created an enemy he cannot defeat…
