Journey to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Force Collector
January 6, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
FreeKarr is a teenage boy like many others in the galaxy. He goes to school, helps his parents with the family business, likes speeders and droids. But Karr also has a secret: when he touches certain objects, he gets searing headaches and blacks out. And along with the pain sometimes come visions of people he doesn’t know and places he’s never been. Karr’s parents worry that he’s sick; his grandmother is convinced the visions come from the Force. But it’s been years since anyone has heard from the last of the Jedi – Luke Skywalker. Are there any Jedi left to guide Karr in the use of his abilities? Journey to Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Force Collector (Disney Lucasfilm) is the new YA novel from Emmy Award-winning author Kevin Shinick.
