The novel that’s headed this entire High Republic initiative is Charles Soule’s Light of the Jedi, which is the next title on our list. It does fit on the timeline earlier, but if this is your first time reading through any of these novels, I recommend you holding off on this book until after you’ve read Light of the Jedi. Technically, the third novel to be released, Claudia Gray’s Into the Dark, begins at the very least 2 days prior to the start of anything else in this era, and ends short hours before other books, like Light of the Jedi.

So we placed the earliest event on day one of the year, unless more info is given to us. So 232 BBY, Before the Battle of Yavin – but at what point in the year any of the events occurs? No idea. The reference book, The Star Wars Book, claims the Dedication of the Starlight Beacon occurred 232 years before the events in the original Star Wars film. So when does the High Republic take place? The events in this era are said to occur some 200 years before the start of the Prequels. I’ll elaborate on those timeline inconsistencies between books at the end of the video as it gets pretty spoiler heavy. Some titles are very specific as to the amount of time that elapses between beginning and end, while other titles are less interested in giving you exact timeframes – and this actually causes what I perceive to be some pretty big plot holes in the narrative. Heads up though, there will be minor spoilers for all titles, as each revolves around three primary events, the Great Disaster, the Battle of Kur, and the Dedication of the Starlight Beacon. Fans of our Complete MCU Timeline Explained series will hopefully enjoy this article enough to give it a big thumbs up, as I put a lot of thought into where everything occurs, as you’ll see shortly. So here I am, coming at you with another timeline. Each title has its strengths and its weaknesses, but the project as a whole paints a wider, more immersive picture of the galaxy – one that is meant to be experienced as a collective, and by only reading one novel or comic from the series would be doing yourself a disservice.Ī look at a rough timeline of each High Republic title in relation to each other And I enjoyed them enough that I’m currently going through them a second time. And now, almost a year later, the first wave of titles has been released. It’s an era we’ve yet to explore in canon or legends, and it’s far enough removed from the Skywalker saga to be a wholly new story for Star Wars – but not so much that the galaxy far far away is an unfamiliar place. When Lucasfilm finally announced what they were planning with Project Luminous, detailing the new publishing campaign that would culminate in The High Republic, I was thrilled.
