The Jedi and the Republic’s conflict with Marchion Ro and the Nihil concludes with the grand finale of The High Republic by Charles Soule.
After more than four years, The High Republic has reached its conclusion with Charles Soule’s Trials of the Jedi. In conclusion to this multi-media publishing event, the Jedi and the Republic get their grand showdown with Marchion Ro and the Nihil. The fate of the galaxy, literally, is at stake as the Jedi travel to the home planet of the Nameless, the Force eating monsters that have devoured Jedi across the galaxy. Marchion’s grand scheme is finally revealed and a great mystery of the blight is explained. Our discussion of the finale of The High Republic begins here. There is a lot to unpack, and we can’t wait to get started here on Podcast Stardust.
Greg Cass (@eyeonecanaon on Instagram, The Long Take Review, and The Rebel Base Card) joins us for the discussion.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Our overall thoughts on the final adult novel in The High Republic,
- How Charles Soule successfully incorporated so many characters from across The High Republic in Trials of the Jedi,
- Marchion Ro’s motives and his ultimate fate in this novel and The High Republic, and
- The mystery behind the Nameless homeworld, its impact on the galaxy, and connection to the blight.
Part two of this discussion will be available next week.
