Star Wars Officially Returns This Month With Rey’s Next Story

We’ve been waiting a long time to see more of Rey. The heroine of the Star Wars sequel trilogy has been waiting patiently for her next adventure in a galaxy far, far away and, with her upcoming film in the works, we were waiting for a big update. Wlel, now we have it as Daisy Ridley‘s most famous role is fnally getting her next story.

Written by Madeleine Roux, Star Wars: Legacy, a new novel, arrives on July 28 and takes place between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker. It finds Rey still reeling from Luke Skywalker’s death, with the Resistance trying to rebuild after the Battle of Crait and Rey’s lightsaber causing one or two issues for her, since it’s, you know, broken.

In the wake of Luke’s death, Leia Organa is doing her best to continue Rey’s Jedi training but it’s fair to say that neither of them are in the best place mentally or spiritually. Rey continually has concerns about where she belongs, Leia’s Jedi knowledge is limited at best, and the two of them remain tormented by the presence of Kylo Ren, for very different reasons.

Are You?

The scores below reveal how the Force sees you. Your highest number is your true alignment. Read on to understand what that means — and what it will cost you.

🔵
Jedi Master

🟡
Padawan

🔴
Sith Lord


Inquisitor


Grey Jedi

Disciplined, compassionate, and deeply attuned to the living Force, you have walked the path long enough to understand its demands — and accept them. You lead not through authority alone, but through example. You have felt the pull of the dark side and chosen otherwise, every time. That is not certainty. That is courage.

You are earnest, powerful, and brimming with potential — and you know it, which is both your greatest asset and your most dangerous flaw. You act before you think, trust your gut over your training, and sometimes confuse impatience for bravery. The Masters see something in you, though. The question isn’t whether you have what it takes — it’s whether you’ll be patient enough to find out.

You are not simply dangerous — you are certain, and that is worse. You have decided what the galaxy needs, and you have decided you are the one to deliver it. Your power is genuine and formidable, earned through sacrifice that would have broken lesser beings. But examine your victories carefully. Every Sith believed their cause was righteous. The dark side’s cruelest trick is that it agrees with you.

You were forged in fire and reshaped by those who found you at your lowest. You serve, because service gave you structure when you had none. Your allegiance is not to an ideology — it is to survival and to the master who gave you purpose. But there is something buried beneath the conditioning. The Jedi you hunt? You recognize them. Because you remember what it felt like before the choice was taken from you.

You have looked at the Jedi Code and the Sith Code and found both of them incomplete. You walk the line not out of indecision but out of conviction — you genuinely believe both extremes miss something essential. The Jedi don’t fully trust you. The Sith think you’re wasting your potential. They’re both partially right. But so are you.

What’s ‘Star Wars: Legacy’ About?

Rey and Leia set off for Tython after ancient Jedi texts point them toward a long-forgotten temple that may hold the key to repairing Rey’s lightsaber, but wouldn’t you know it, the trip soon turns into much more than a repair job. Turns out the temple is chock-full of dangerous trials for them to overcome, long-buried mysteries and a First Order officer busy hunting for refugees. Sounds a bit like a Tomb Raider game, actually.

The book is also promising that it’s going to dig a lot more deeply into the mentor and student bond between Leia and Rey. That relationship was central to The Rise of Skywalker, but for obvious reasons it was difficult to show that relationship off properly given that one of the actors was no longer with us. Being able to write a story about the duo should give it a lot more depth.

Roux has said the novel gets inside the heads of Rey, Leia, and Kylo Ren, while introducing new characters and expanding on Captain Wolstenholme, a First Order figure previously glimpsed in Marvel’s Age of Resistance material.

Star Wars: Legacy arrives July 28.
