WITH A NEW MOVIE AND MUCH MORE, THE FORCE WILL BE ESPECIALLY STRONG THIS YEAR.

If you thought 2015 was a good year to be a Star Wars fan, wait until you see what’s in store in the coming months. Here’s where the fun begins in 2016.

1. New Books

If your New Year’s resolution is to read more Star Wars novels, you will have no trouble fulfilling your goal tenfold. Start by picking up copies of Claudia Grey’s Lost Stars and Chuck Wendig’s Star Wars: Aftermath (if you haven’t already!) and get ready for more! This spring/early summer, the authors will give us even more information about the events that occurred before the new trilogy ranging from the start of the New Republic to…well, that’s about all we know so far. In Grey’s New Republic: Bloodline, we will be introduced to new characters and storylines separate from Lost Stars, in a story that will take place six years prior to the events of The Force Awakens. Wendig’s Star Wars: Aftermath — Life Debt, due out early summer, remains mostly a mystery aside from a shot of our favorite hunk of junk on the newly-revealed cover. Either way, we’re making room on the bookshelf (physical and digital).

2. The Rebels Return!

Darth Vader. New Inquisitors. Ahsoka Tano. And tons more. Star Wars Rebels‘ amazing second season is set to continue shortly — so what can we expect this year? Who knows…and that’s the fun of it! We can’t wait to see what new adventures await the Ghost crew when Rebels picks up this month after a short hiatus. And for those already dreading the end of Season Two, worry not — Season Three will also commence sometime in 2016. Even Chopper is excited, we think.
