We’re continuing our journey through Delilah S. Dawson’s PHASMA this week! Join us as we discuss how this book shows us a side of the galaxy we’ve never seen before, the “humanity” of droids, and how much we understand so far of who Phasma really is.

This week, we’re starting PHASMA by Delilah S. Dawson, the origin story of the First Order’s most feared — and most mysterious — soldier. Join us as we discuss Parnassos, a world unlike any other in the current Star Wars canon; hope and the First Order; and how, right off the bat, the writing itself is different from the canon novels we’ve discussed before.

Also, Kate mixed up Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights in this episode; she meant the latter. Bronte sisters confusion.

This podcast covers chapters 1-13 of PHASMA and is NOT spoiler-free!
