For Miranda‘s first official episode as a pod co-host, we’re discussing LEIA: PRINCESS OF ALDERAAN by Claudia Gray! This week, we’re charting Leia’s character growth throughout the known Star Wars timeline, her life of privilege (and what she chooses to do with it), and the different faces of war. Plus, Chris has a lot of feelings about Moff Panaka and Leia being Padme’s daughter.

This podcast is NOT spoiler-free and covers chapters 1-14. It also mentions plot points from BLOODLINE by Claudia Gray, which we read in our episodes 4-8.

Book Wars Pod explores the Star Wars universe through the franchise’s non-screen media: the canon novels, comics, and video games.
