Ep. 54 - Book Chat: Thrawn Ascendancy - Chaos Rising

Today we’re discussing the first book in the new trilogy from fan-favorite Star Wars author Timothy Zahn, Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos Rising. The latest entry into the life of the legendary Chiss warrior turns back the clocks to a time long before Thrawn was a member of the Imperial Navy, and shines a light on his adventures protecting his own people, the Chiss Ascendancy, hidden deep within the mysterious Unknown Regions.
