Ryan Gosling is about to star in Star Wars: Starfighter, a new film by Deadpool and Wolverine director Shawn Levy that will pick up the saga after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. But before that, the first story told in post-Rise of Skywalker continuity will come in the form of a young adult novel that stars Finn and Jannah, as seen on the Penguin Random House catalogue site.

Titled Star Wars: The Last Order, the novel is written by author Kwame Mbalia, best known for his award-winning YA novel Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky. It follows freedom fighters Finn and Jannah as they attempt to rescue children who have been kidnapped by the First Order.
