Dear Star Wars Book Readers: Unfortunately, a policy change at Amazon has broken all the images on this site, and it would take many hours of tedious work to fix them all. Since the Book Finder tool doesn't seem to be very popular anyway, I'm planning to stop updating it for the foreseeable future. But if you have strong feelings about this (or suggestions), do feel free to let me know by email: books@yodasdatapad.com. You can still use the tool if you don't mind that the pictures are missing and it doesn't include the newest books.

Star Wars Insider: The Fiction Collection, Volume 1 by various authors
Star Wars Insider magazine, the official magazine of Star Wars, has often published exclusive short stories set in the Star Wars universe, sometimes as tie-ins to new novels and movies, and other times just to explore new corners of the galaxy.
Now people who aren't subscribed to the magazine can finally read many of those obscure tales in this new book, the first of at least two collecting short fiction from Star Wars Insider.
Unlike other Star Wars short story collections, this book includes a mix of canon stories and stories from the old Legends expanded universe, since it covers magazine issues from a period spanning 2011 to 2017.
Buy from Amazon!
This book contains a mix of stories from the New Canon timeline and the Legends timeline. While some stories in it are consistent with newer Star Wars movies, TV shows, books, and comics, others are not.
