After watching Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, you may have walked away with more than a few questions about everyone’s favorite sequel trilogy X-Wing pilot, Poe Dameron. It turns out that the hotshot hero wasn’t always so heroic. There was a time in his youth when he illegally smuggled spice with Zorii Bliss and the Spice Runners of Kijimi. So how did he go from a life of crime to one of valiant purpose?
That’s what the new Star Wars novel titled Poe Dameron: Free Fall, by Alex Segura (Archie, Silent City), is set to explore. IGN is excited to exclusively debut the first chapter of the book for you to read before its release on August 4.
