Barnes, Steven. Star Wars : the glass abyss : Mace Windu. [New York, New York] : Random House Worlds, [2024].

Mace Windu: Glass Abyss delivers exactly what many fans have wanted: a focused, character-driven look at Mace that still moves like a true Star Wars adventure. Picking up right after The Phantom Menace, it explores who Mace is—his discipline, his doubts, and his leadership—while thoughtfully engaging with the legacy of Qui-Gon Jinn. The result is a book that adds meaningful context to this era of the Jedi without spoiling future films or overwhelming casual readers with lore. The pacing balances introspection and action, making it a compelling pick for both longtime fans and anyone curious about the Jedi at a pivotal moment in the timeline.

May the Force be with you, always.
