This week on Book Wars Pod, we conclude our coverage of Queen’s Hope with special guests @candaceisageek of The Geeky Waffle and @ashjeffys of Rogue Podron. We consider Padmé’s role as a leader of the rebellion, tie-ins with other canon (and non-canon) media, and handmaiden zodiacs.

For this book, we’re highlighting Transformations KC. Transformations KC is a trans people of color led organization focused on capacity building and leadership development among trans communities of color, particularly youth without traditional systems of support, in Missouri, Kansas, and the Ozark Mountain region in Northern Arkansas.
