Television Review | Obi-Wan Kenobi
This show is sort of a reverse Solo, a television series that should have been a movie. If you’ve avoided the show due to bad word-of-mouth, I’d say give it a watch, expecting something a little small-scale but which builds every episode toward a satisfying finale. 7/10
Television Review | The Book of Boba Fett (Season 1)
Good, not great, but good. Treats the main character as a character, against the obvious direction such a show might take.
Film Review | Black Widow
Black Widow succeeds in showcasing the title character while telling its own compelling story. It's not the best MCU film, but it's exciting and never collapses under the weight of detailing a known character's backstory.
Book Review | Thrawn Ascendancy: Greater Good
This book works well as the middle chapter. It follows from the previous volume smoothly, it points toward an interesting third book, and the story of Thrawn, et al, racing to prevent a civil war between the Chiss is more than enough to justify Greater Good in it’s own right.
Book Review | Star Wars: Victory's Price
This book, and this trilogy, is the best thing to come out of Star Wars in some time. You should read it. It's well worth your time, even if you aren't much of a Star Wars fan.
Book Review | Star Wars: Light of the Jedi
While I read this without ever feeling like I should quit mid-way through, I have no real desire to read it ever again. Its strength, and its purpose, really, is in its world-building. By itself, that's not enough to make a good book.
Television Review | The Mandalorian (Season 2)
This season The Mandalorian really took the mantle of being the current flagship Star Wars property. Season 2 was a solid improvement over Season 1, and both were great television.

Book Review | Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos Rising
If you’re a fan of Thrawn, you’ll probably appreciate this book. If you aren’t a Thrawn fan, I’d probably recommend you read some other books ahead of this one.
Book Review | Shadow Fall
If you read Alphabet Squadron and liked it, go ahead and read this one too. It builds from the same themes as that last book, and goes in some interesting directions, setting up the next book to be, hopefully, something pretty good as well.
Game Review | Warframe
I don’t play much in the way of video games; I just play Warframe.

Book Review | The Force Awakens novelization
A passable product to fill bookstore shelves and give the studio an opportunity at another market space. Unless you’re really interested in Starkiller Base, just watch the film.
Film Review | Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
This whole film seems incredibly trimmed down, I’d say to bare bones in many points, but that’s not enough. This film is partial skeletal remains, whose presence points to the one-time existence of some magnificent creature, much of the full nature of which can only be guessed at.
