Star Wars : The High Republic, The Edge of Balance: Precedent: Volume 1 (Star Wars: The High Republic: Edge of Balance)

Product description

The next phase of the interconnected cross-publisher initiative, Star Wars: The High Republic, an all-new era of Star Wars storytelling.

In the all-new era of the glorious HIGH REPUBLIC, the noble and wise Jedi Knights must face a.

A good book set in (Phase 2 and Phase 1) both eras of the High Republic.

I would reading Cataclysm and the Edge of Ballance comics before reading this one.

Towards the end of the battle of Dalna Jedi Apprentice Arkoff, his Master Ravna, and her droid ZZ fought bravely against the Path of the Open Hand.

However, after the &quot

victory,&quot

they made a discovery devastating yo the Jedi.

Those who survived will be scared or broken.

Not the remnant if the Path and the Nihil want what was hidden.

It was great to see both Arkoff and Ravna in action.

There is not too much new information here, but a good bridging book.

The book finishes with some character sketches.

I really like this book and will definitely read it again.

This is classified as a spin-off but is a must read IMO.

This book covers Azlin Rell's compelling backstory and is my favorite volume in the series.

It's the real #3 in Edge of Balance.

With the release of The Edge of Balance — Precedent, phase two of The High Republic has officially come to an end.

But some of the stories are far from over, as phase two was a prequel to the events of the main/phase one storyline.

And the newest manga volume is a solid conclusion to phase two while also subtly teg what’s to come when phase three arrives in the fall.

The story begins in phase one when Vol Garat (an arachnoid type species called a Harch), who’s an ex-member of the Path of the Open Hand, and the Nihil are looking for more information on the Nameless creatures.

Like the Nihil and Eye Marchion Ro, Vol hates the Jedi and wants revenge after the tragic Battle of Dalna.

That’s where droid ZZ comes in, as the story turns into a flashback to Wookiee Jedi Arkoff and his Master Ravna on that galaxy-changing night.

Because of Cataclysm and Path of Vengeance, we know many Jedi were killed, injured, or traumatized by the effects of the Nameless creature during the climactic battle of phase two.

And in Precedent, we see the final moments of that battle from Arkoff’s and Master Ravna’s points of view — as well as Jedi Knight Azlin Rell, arguably the one suffering from the most brutal PTSD.

Star Wars manga has been famous for stunning illustrations, dynamic panels, and individual contemplative elements that make it stand out from its prose counterparts.

Precedent does have those elements, but it’s a much more plot- and action-forward story than the other two Edge of Balance volumes.

For a story with Arkoff at its center, I felt more intrigued by Azlin’s plight than any of the others.

As seen in Path of Vengeance, Azlin is mentally scarred by his encounters with the Nameless creatures, and that nightmarish darkness and hallucinations don’t let up.

Precedent is another entry in the long list of stories of Jedi being tormented by the Nameless creatures and how far those effects reach.

With Daniel José Older and Tomio Ogata at the helm, the manga volume is a fast-paced read that adds even more depth to the phase two-defining Night of Sorrow.
