MEAN What INTRODUCTION DOES IT TO BE GOOD It’s one of life’s eternal questions questions with many possible answers and not one that can be resolved in this short introduction introduction But when I think about the effort to be a good person the Jedi come to mind as an example of those who always at least try to be good None of us are perfect including the Jedi but Jedi Knights give us an ideal to strive for Whether it’s Luke standing tall and refusing to strike down his father or Obi-Wan taking on a young Padawan because he thinks it’s the right thing to do or Rey fighting against the evil of Palpatine Star Wars provides us with plenty of heroes on the side of the light doing everything they can to push back the darkness
But of course you can’t have that light without the darkness or good without evil And Star Wars has no shortage of memorable villains too From the demonic-looking Darth Maul to the twisted and vile Palpatine to the undeniably iconic Dark Lord of the Sith himself Darth Vader evil is always there for the Jedi to face in their fight for the light Then there are those like Asajj Ventress who live in the shadows between reminding us that the definitions of good and bad are not always black-and-white I’m so pleased to present ten exciting original stories by a group of incredible authors stories that explore what it is to be good bad and everything in between There are some important questions asked here What makes a Jedi What does it mean to stand for justice In a complicated galaxy what’s really the right thing to do but there’s also thrilling action adventure and humor in timeless Star Wars stories that feel like they’ve jumped straight off a movie screen So enjoy and choose your side Jennifer Heddle STORIES OF JEDI AND SITH
