NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * A one-of-a-kind Star Wars experience that sheds new light on the original film.

On May 25, 1977, the world was introduced to Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, C-3PO, R2-D2, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and a galaxy full of possibilities. In honor of the fortieth anniversary, more than forty contributors lend their vision to this retelling of Star Wars. Each of the forty short stories reimagines a moment from the original film, but through the eyes of a supporting character. From a Certain Point of View features contributions by bestselling authors, trendsetting artists, and treasured voices from the literary history of Star Wars:

* Gary Whitta bridges the gap from Rogue One to A New Hope through the eyes of Captain Antilles.
* Aunt Beru finds her voice in an intimate character study by Meg Cabot.
* Nnedi Okorofor brings dignity and depth to a most unlikely character: the monster in the trash compactor.
* Pablo Hidalgo provides a chilling glimpse inside the mind of Grand Moff Tarkin.

* Pierce Brown chronicles Biggs Darklighter’s final flight during the Rebellion’s harrowing attack on the Death Star.
* Wil Wheaton spins a poignant tale of the rebels left behind on Yavin.

Plus thirty-four more hilarious, heartbreaking, and astonishing tales from:
Ben Acker * Renee Ahdieh * Tom Angleberger * Ben Blacker * Jeffrey Brown * Pierce Brown * Meg Cabot * Rae Carson * Adam Christopher * Zoraida Cordova * Delilah S. Dawson * Kelly Sue DeConnick * Paul Dini * Ian Doescher * Ashley Eckstein * Matt Fraction * Alexander Freed * Jason Fry * Kieron Gillen * Christie Golden * Claudia Gray * E. K. Johnston * Paul S. Kemp * Mur Lafferty * Daniel M. Lavery * Ken Liu * Griffin McElroy * John Jackson Miller * Daniel Jose Older * Beth Revis * Madeleine Roux * Greg Rucka * Gary D. Schmidt * Cavan Scott * Charles Soule * Sabaa Tahir * Elizabeth Wein * Glen Weldon * Chuck Wendig
