As the Empire reels from its critical defeats at the Battle of Endor, the Rebel Alliance — now a fledgling New Republic — presses its advantage by hunting down the enemy’s scattered forces before they can regroup and retaliate. But above the remote planet Akiva, an ominous show of the enemy’s strength is unfolding. Out on a lone reconnaissance mission, pilot Wedge Antilles watches Imperial Star Destroyers gather like birds of prey circling for a kill, but is taken captive before he can report back to the New Republic leaders.Meanwhile, on the planet’s surface, former Rebel fighter Norra Wexley has returned to her native world — war weary, ready to reunite with her estranged son, and eager to build a new life in some distant place. But when Norra intercepts Wedge Antilles’s urgent distress call, she realizes her time as a freedom fighter is not yet over. What she doesn’t know is just how close the enemy is—or how decisive and dangerous her new mission will be.Determined to preserve the Empire’s power, the surviving Imperial elite are converging on Akiva for a top-secret emergency summit — to consolidate their forces and rally for a counterstrike. But they haven’t reckoned on Norra and her newfound allies — her technical genius son, a Zabrak bounty hunter, and a reprobate Imperial defector — who are prepared to do whatever they must to end the Empire’s oppressive reign once and for all.Aftermath is a Star Wars Expanded Universe novel by Chuck Wendig and the first Post-Endor story released following the Continuity Reboot by Disney.The Rebel Alliance is busy trying to make the switch from guerrilla military movement to a legitimate government, but the Empire, though crippled by the events at Endor, is still a force to be reckoned with and now one of its powerful fleets is marshaling at the Outer Rim world of Akiva in preparation for a devastating counter-attack on the fledgling New Republic. Fighter Ace Wedge Antilles has learned of this fleet's movements but before he can warn the Republic leadership of the danger he is captured by Imperial forces. Now it is up to veteran rebel soldier Norra Wexley and whatever forces she can scrape together to rescue Wedge and report back to the New Republic about the Imperial plans.Aftermath's sequel, and the second novel of the Aftermath trilogy, is Aftermath: Life Debt. The third novel of the series is Aftermath: Empire's End. | |

The War Has Just Begun | |

The War Has Just Begun: Endor hurt the Empire bad but it didn't collapse outright and now its forces are rallying for a counter-attack. Admiral Ackbar says as much during his Endor victory speech at the start of the book. | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: In one of the later "Interlude" chapters, a man named Corwin Ballast comes to the desolate Outer Rim planet of Jakku to escape the ongoing war between the Empire and New Republic, because even though he was unaffiliated with either side, his wife and daughter were caught and killed in the crossfire between the two. The bartender of the dive he's in assures him Jakku is far too remote and worthless for the war to ever come to it, promising him all the free drinks he wants if it ever does. A year after the battle of Endor (also after this chapter takes place), the Empire and New Republic would engage in another massive battle directly over Jakku, which would lead to the planet being littered with debris even thirty years afterward. One assumes the bartender came to really regret making that offer with Corwin... | |

Small Name, Big Ego: Valco Pandion was just a regular Moff in command of one Star Destroyer who fled the battle of Malastare as his garrison was overrun. By the time of Aftermath he has promoted himself to Grand Moff and thinks he should be the one in command of the SSD Ravager while completely unaware that its original commander is still very much alive. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: Pretty much everyone at the gathering on Akiva realizes that the Emperor ordering the construction of two massively expensive superweapons instead of thousands of Star Destroyers (which would have been more useful in a wide variety of ways) was a stupid idea. | |

Sequel Hook | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: Who is this mysterious Fleet Admiral in charge of the Super Star Destroyer Ravager and its fleet? What does he know about the Empire's secret expansion into the Unknown Regions? A group of dark side fanatics known as the Acolytes of Beyond appear, and purchase what may be Darth Vader's lightsaber. The group may be connected to Kylo Ren and the First Order, the villains of The Force Awakens. This aspect drew a large amount of attention from fans, since J. J. Abrams has hinted that Kylo Ren worships Darth Vader, much like the Acolytes. Han Solo is convinced to take part in a campaign to liberate the Wookiee homeworld. If its title is any indication, the second novel in the trilogy will follow up on that plotline. | |

Bolivian Army Ending: How the Happy Ending Override scene in the prologue ends, with the crowd throwing pieces of the destroyed statute at the police shooting at them, while Rorak mentally reflects how he'd always felt that the war wouldn't just be won with one big battle, and that it still needs to be fought. They then jin the crowd, with a later chapter mentioning that Rorak was killed but his son survived: "He holds his son close. Then he puts a hunk of statute in the boys hand. And he picks up one himself." | |

Been There, Shaped History | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_9a1d239e | comment |
Been There, Shaped History: Norra is the Y-wing pilot that flew beside the Falcon in the attack on the second Death Star, the one that broke off and headed back to the surface on Lando's orders, taking about half the pursuing TIE fighters with her and her wingmate. | |

Took a Level in Badass | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_9bcd82c0 | comment |
Took a Level in Badass: Temmin has a B-1 battle droid bodyguard named Mr. Bones. Yes, those B-1s from the Prequels and The Clone Wars, the joke characters. Well, guess what they can do when you heavily mod one. | |

Continuity Nod | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_9dab0a6e | comment |
Continuity Nod: Wedge notes there are stories about Mustafar saying that was where Darth Vader took Jedi to execute them. Much like how Rebels said Mustafar was where 'Jedi go to die'. Sloane uses Denetrius Vidian's old catchphrase, "Forget the Old Way", from A New Dawn. Wedge was recruited by Fulcrum. The events of how this unfolds are explored in the later-released Season 3 of Rebels. An interlude chapter on Saleucami has characters discussing their war-weary neighbor, "Old Man Lawquane", from The Clone Wars episode, "The Deserter". Jas is the niece of Sugi, a Zabrak bounty hunter. Mister Bones' programming is strongly implied to be partially based off that of General Grievous. On Tatooine, a group of Jawas are shown selling debris and artifacts recovered from the remains of Jabba's pleasure skiff. This includes an acid-scarred suit of Mandalorian armor, implied to have belonged to Boba Fett. The Season 2 premiere of The Mandalorian outright confims that the armor is Boba's... and that he's still alive. Another interlude mentions a New Republic art installation on Chandrila made of painted-over Imperial helmets, with one of the characters about to say the artist's name before being cut off. Sounds like the work of a certain Mandalorian warrior. | |

| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_a1b141f4 | comment |
My God, What Have I Done?: Temmin has this reaction when his plan to stay on Akiva by selling out Sinjir and Jas blows up in his face and he learns the hard way about making deals with Imperial Stormtroopers breathing down your neck. | |

Benevolent Boss: Sloane, in contrast to the other Imperial commanders on Akiva with the possible exception of General Jylia Shale. She is supportive and protective of any competent officer under her command, especially her longtime shuttle pilot Morna Kee and attaché Adea Rite. | |

Authority in Name Only | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_a5398aba | comment |
Authority in Name Only: Tattooine's self-appointed lawman Cobb Vanth is this during his scene in this novel (albeit with a worthier cause than usual), but once he gets his hands on Boba Fett's armor, by the time of the sequels (and later The Mandalorian) he's gone From Nobody to Nightmare in the eyes of the local criminals, and becomes a savior to the common people of Tatooine. | |

Rousing Speech | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_aaece264 | comment |
Rousing Speech: The book opens with Admiral Ackbar's victory speech at Endor, where he thanks the soldiers for their sacrifices and efforts but at the same time reminds them the Empire is still the dominant force in the galaxy despite the loss of the Death Star, the Emperor and Darth Vader. Leia gives a propaganda broadcast that is repeated several times throughout the book. | |

Four-Star Badass | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_ac928039 | comment |
Four-Star Badass: Sloane, despite being a fairly high ranking admiral, personally takes charge on the front lines several times in the book. She personally leads the team hunting for Wedge through the Vigilance and is the one who captures him, then a few pages later she uses her personal shuttle as a gunship against Jas. Then, she personally leads the stormtrooper unit that captures the heroes and when Mr. Bones tries to intervene Sloane is the one who destroys him. Finally, when Moff Pandion tries to seize command she beats the crap out of him, shoots him in the gut and leaves him on-board an exploding shuttle. | |

Stupid Evil | |
| Star Wars: Aftermath / int_affd30b0 | comment |
Stupid Evil: Pretty much everyone at the gathering on Akiva realizes that the Emperor ordering the construction of two massively expensive superweapons instead of thousands of Star Destroyers (which would have been more useful in a wide variety of ways) was a stupid idea. | |

Mistaken for Pedophile: After Sinjir informs Jas that he's gay, he tells her they need to talk about Temmin (since he noticed something was burdening the boy). Jas responds by telling him Temmin is way too young for him. | |
