Are you a Star Wars fan? Do you know all the trivia and often make edits on Wookieepedia? Does it drive you absolutely nuts to read the books out of order? Or maybe you’re trying to find the books that are canon now that Disney acquired the Star Wars franchise and removed the “Extended Universe” novels. We at the Talking Book Program (TBP) have your back. Below is a list of the books in our collection, both “canon” and “legacy,” as well as organized chronologically by era and when the action occurred.
This is an ever-evolving list. The current iteration was compiled using the source below. As the NLS collection grows daily, this may not be a complete list of our holdings.
