Probably to make sure people didn’t think he was Snoke. Also, in this book Jar Jar Binks is alive and living in disgrace on some random planet. I got nothing more from the book than the single sentence that was stated in the video. I read this book because a YouTube video I watched eluded to information about Snoke in it. I didn’t read the other two Aftermath books, but this novel details the Battle of Jakku and how the Empire came to be defeated, and how The First Order came into being. The book is fairly similar to Star Wars: A New Dawn, in that you see a Jedi trainee post Order 66 find their way drifting towards rebellion of the Empire. Ahsoka is just trying to make a life for herself post Jedi Order, until she starts to encounter Palpatine’s plans to not only eradicate the Jedi, but to make sure a new generation doesn’t show up later. This novel explores the life of Ahsoka Tano between the time she left the Jedi Order in Clone Wars up to her appearance in Rebels. This book doesn’t exactly endear anyone to Galen Erso, either. (And yet, they built a second functional one like 4 years later which was larger in size). It explains some of the hardships it took to construct the first Death Star aka, the 20 year project to build a moon-sized space station. It is primarily a story about Galen Erso and Orson Krennic, particularly since Jyn isn’t born, and when she, is she is a young child.
This novel starts right near the end of the Old Republic, and goes up to a couple of years before Rogue One: A Star Wars Story starts. If you thought Tarkin just got a bad rep for blowing up an entire planet just to test the Death Star, but was otherwise an okay guy, then this book will correct you of that gross misjudgment of character. It jumps from period to period (boy, young Judiciary Force commander, Imperial Officer), skipping over his appearances in Clone Wars. This novel explains the rise and career of Wilhuff Tarkin, up to his appointment as a Grand Moff. And by recent, I mean, within the last couple of years.
