One of these late stories isStar Wars : The Secrets of the Wookiees , a canon citation book detail the lives of the loveable , jungle - dwelling beast .
Interestingly , this book has a neat connection toStar warfare : The Last Jedi . When take in theStar Warsmovies in order , The Last Jedicomes right before the final Skywalker Saga film , Star Wars : The acclivity of Skywalker .

Looking at all nine Skywalker Saga launching and three spinoffs , we top the best Star Wars movie in our full ranking of the Galax urceolata far , far forth .
The Wookiees Drove Back The First Order - & Held Out For A Year
WhileSecrets of the Wookieescenters onStar Wars’iconic Wookiee characters , from Chewbacca to theWookiee Jedi ofStar Wars’High Republic , the book also detail the spacious condition of the planet of Kashyyyk at dissimilar item in the timeline . One of the timeline moments outline inthe record book computer address how the Wookiees handled the First Order intrusion of the galaxy , the aforesaid story peak razz at the end ofThe Last Jedi . consort to the book , the First Order attempt to place a blockade around Kashyyyk to force the Wookiees into submission .
However , whatSecrets of the Wookieesalso reveals is that the nominal race had learned from the mistakes of their yesteryear . Rather than fall dupe to another tyrannical government as they did under the Empire ’s rule , the Wookiees used the knowledge they had acquired from the Empire ’s encroachment and drove the First Order back with relative ease . This mean that the Wookiees remained free from the First Order ’s ruler , something that alter the apparent dominanceThe Last Jedi ’s ending had set up from the villainous organization .
Kylo Ren Never Truly Ruled The Galaxy
While this reveal is a fantastic development for the Wookiees inStar warfare , it also has large ramifications for a popular sequel character . The character in query is Kylo Ren , who ostensibly did not find the galaxy whole asThe Last Jediteased . In the yr betweenThe Last JediandThe rising of Skywalker , it was assumed that Supreme Leader Kylo Ren and the First Order took sodding control of the galaxy , thoughSecrets of the Wookieesproves this was not the case .
This pretty undermines Kylo Ren ’s rule and proves that he may not have been ready to take the step up to replacing Snoke at the end ofThe Last Jedi . This also raises the question of whether there were other holdouts across the beetleweed . It is improbable that in a galaxy as huge asStar Wars ' , only the Wookiees protest . It may have been the case that other planets push back against the First Order afterStar warfare : The Last Jediyet before the Resistance finally defeated them , a scenario that could have a wealth of storytelling for futureStar Warscanon stories .
