[@supremeleadermatt8733]

I think it's likely the name came from the game development which started a year before Dark Disciple's release, too

[@StarWarsExplained]

SUPER IMPORTANT INFO lol

[@jordanjamison97]

I disagree I think it came from the game development team, which started a year before this books release

[@josephyml]

are you sure? i think i heard somewhere that it came from the game development which started a year before Dark Disciple's release.

[@SharpDesign]

Lol..I was about to comment on that.

[@Curttehmurt]

I thought I was having a stroke

[@KOPMEMBER1]

I wasn't ready for how emotional this book would get.

[@bazuka420]

one of the best books in the new canon

[@TheNuisanceBird]

Not for me. The Council Forcecast.

[@chrissonofpear3657]

Eh, Quinlan just did not feel the same.

[@llemp4205]

This is one of the worst Books ever...

[@bazuka420]

LLemp why do you say that

[@bazuka420]

Eric Santucci I loved lost stars did you see they just released the lost stars manga

[@simonjones845]

Great book with a heartbreaking ending

[@dandypants1983]

Simon Jones this. This. THIS. 😭😭😭

[@I_dont_think_therefore...]

Why did Ventress die?

[@dandypants1983]

Brian Garner not gonna spoil it for you. 😊

[@kaleeshmatriarch455]

Totally loved reading Dark Disciple when I first got into Star Wars. It is really one of my favorite CANON books and got to make a compelling connection with the characters whose developing ardent relationship/emotions towards one another were uniquely well-conveyed. AMAZING read!! 🙂😎👍💖🏹📚✒

[@williamrugendyke399]

Funny, i just started reading Dark Disciple again, great video BTW

[@henry7655]

minor mistake at 1:46 just want you to make you aware!

[@mayeastrise]

The Quinlan Vos arc was amazing in both versions of the Clone Wars :)

[@oscarrosales6862]

Just finished reading this book today, I loved i teared up at the end

[@mitwhitgaming7722]

One of the only new canon books I haven't read, but now, looking at some of the comments, I want to give it a go.

[@Plasticcaz]

It is one of my favourite Star Wars stories. I listened to the Audiobook, and it is awesome.

[@mckmitte]

Can’t recommend it enough if you enjoy the clone wars

[@danielantunano7708]

I read it recently, and its amazing! If you like The Clone Wars (and particularly Asajj Ventress) , you will love this book for sure.

[@sanderflop]

Don’t

[@mitwhitgaming7722]

kirschakos I have enjoyed pretty much all of the new canon novels and very few have disappointed. Although, I just finished Outbound Flight and just started Heir to the Empire, so I don't have much Legends experience to compare it to.

[@dominickferrara8077]

1:54 editing issue

[@kuhpunkt]

Shut up!

[@Cbb88dragonborn]

I hope we get a knights of Ren book eventually. Still don’t know what the deal is with those guys

[@sam.e.a6422]

It just takes an attentive person to understand, its said in the last Jedi that kylo turned a few of Luke's students to the dark side and killed the rest, it's implied they are the knights of ren

[@alexfick2049]

Also, Vulptex.

Cloned human

Yoda’s species

[@jeremiahsimanjuntak4599]

Sand Forgot to mention that these are sentient species and both of those are non-sentient

[@lukekersten3421]

This is the first book I decided to read to start getting into the Star Wars canon books and I loved it!

[@jacobbrowning3804]

I'm in the middle of reading this one right now, so I'll watch in a few days!

[@brycebomb131]

I absolutely loved DD. It's probably my favorite canon book for two reasons. 1)It's a great book, and 2)Marc Thompson's audio adaptation is fantastic.

[@user-Jay178]

Great video and this book looks cool.

[@mikereilly5868]

So close to 500k!

[@madisonbadger9454]

She’s back!!!!

[@ThatDragonGuy]

Do Lost Stars

[@Beatness121]

The real best SW book imo.

[@gauthierlaventure5494]

Hi Star Wars Explained! I'm new to this channel and I must admit I'm impressed by the huge amount of hard work your videos must have required. Many thanks for that! I've come to this channel with a series of specific questions in mind. Not knowing if they have already been asked before... and I think these questions could be of interest for any Star Wars Classic Era RPG fans: - What would any citizen under the rule of Palpatine's Empire know of History? - And any citizen of the Outer Rim? I know the Empire has led a propaganda aiming at destroying any traces of the Jedi Order in order to wipe it from memories. Resulting in Jedi being demoted as legends and supersitions at the time of Rogue One and A New Hope. But Jedi History and Republic History are so profoundly intertwined that I wonder what every youngster would be taught about history by pro-empire education system. - Subsidiary question: Any Dictatorial Regime would require heroes to display ideological indoctrination to the youth: if any, what would be Empire 's heroes? TLDR; What would the Educational System and Propaganda be like under Palpatine Empire's rule? Hope this question is not redundant. Anyhow, thanks for the hard work!

[@chrissonofpear3657]

They'd know a fair bit of history, but details and history of the Jedi would be heavily suppressed, painting them as a cult or a shadowy group. Propaganda would be around at various levels, possibly with human cultural bias. Things get more awkward from a Legend's perspective with the sheer number of conflicts against the Sith that have apparently happened, something Palpatine might want distorted in various ways.

[@skydrathik3329]

Asajj looks SO MUCH BETTER WITH HAIR

[@iououu]

This is one of my favorite books and one of the first new canon books I’ve read.

[@user-li6zy5pq4j]

Just started this book ☆ it's great!

[@treyhaddon2004]

Just read dark disciple and loved it!

[@sand4273]

This is my favorite novel so far in the Disney canon!

[@metsfan7376]

Loved this book,

[@danielkeyworth4611]

Great video just finished the novel i also agree with you that the novel is completely worth the time to read.

[@grandadmiraltacoman8643]

I just finished this book. Right when this video released, Wow!

[@cavtastic5523]

Disckiple

[@kwfilms6427]

I loved this book!

[@UraiFen44444444]

Nice Video :)

[@dickrobot]

Nice. I was just about to read this book for a 3rd time.

[@alc4117]

This needs to be adapted. Dave filoni and team should think about adapting some novels canon to the clone wars. The story was sooo good

[@dandypants1983]

Thoroughly enjoyed that book. It may have been the first or second "new canon" book I purchased and read. It came out before the Aftermath trilogy, iirc.

[@YusufKudsiKoc]

I Just finished the book yesterday :D

[@groundmustard]

Yesss this is my fav canon novel

[@colinfitzgerald007]

You should actually cover the stories of these older books. For those of us who read them awhile ago...it's nice to be reminded. For those that just don't read at all (or do audio books) it'll help the understanding of what has actually occurred in SW canon.

[@lordnanni3177]

@Star Wars Explained Darth Vader Annual 2 contradicts several chapters of Catalyst: A Rogue One Novel, specifically chapter 20 and the subsequent three chapters. How can that be explained?

[@lifemattersnot]

Dark disciple and A new dawn are two of my favorite star wars anything I'm a sucker for romance

[@patchodraws9200]

Can you make a list of best canon books and comics?

[@ajzeg01]

1:55 What?

[@ExpedienteGonk]

-What about the References attack on the Canon? -The Easter Eggs are catastrophic.

[@seanaldmcdonald9878]

I would rather see this in clone wars season 7 than Bad Batch

[@aaronpaul04]

#darkdisckiple

[@abrakadabra6364]

I bet Tholme fans were pissed 😡

[@tjsworld98]

Perfect timing literally a day after clone wars was announced.

[@nokopanda4642]

I can't help but think that a griddy Star Wars show centered around the coruscant underworld police would be cool.

[@gamersgamestorm8291]

You forgot when, when I think it was Vos, that said, “I have a bad feeling about this!”

[@l33t9r0u93]

2:58 that's incorrect if my memory doesn't fail me, it's 1st appearance is in the 1st edition of "Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game" (1987). i.stack.imgur.com/EKnrI.jpg

[@Tutorial7a]

Best canon book I've read. Period.

[@mr.nobody5669]

I think it's likey the name came from the game development that came before the release I think it's likely the name came from the game development that came before the release

[@Revilod]

1:47 nice...

[@ryanjohnson3392]

Dark Diskiple!!!!!!

[@Some_Call_Me_Pietro]

What about Desh saying to Obi Wan "Master Kenobi, must you _always_ take the high road?"

[@KOPMEMBER1]

Star Wars Explained + Off topic but my question is about something that happened in the Vader comic #18 where limitations were put on the distance Vader can kill with the force. Episode 5 clearly contradicts this so is it fair to assume that Vaders power hasn't reached those levels yet??

[@Beatness121]

I think that's a good explanation since the Vader comic takes place earlier than the movies.

[@xseros2110]

What a nice title...

[@LegendOfSolidus]

Still my favorite book in canon. The new canon books have yet to top this one

[@jayjansen9086]

Disciple

[@Ronin_Vector]

Was there ever an IRS equivalent in the Galactic Empire?

[@Mike1064ab]

Such a shame they never developed this into an episode. I mean they did season 7 of the clone wars the tales of the Jedi AND bad batch why couldn’t they have adapted this like originally intended?

[@DogsNotGods]

Retconning the Dark Horse Clone Wars comic series is one of the primary reasons I'm so mad at new canon.

[@nich6200]

Misspelled Disciple in the title

[@SuprSecrtClub]

Oh, this book was great. I love the way the story built up throughout reading it.

[@andregurkenstein9192]

Wait Dark Disciple is canon?

[@cooperv.6083]

It was going to be an arc in season 6 or 7 of the clone wars but the show got cancelled and the story was turned into a novel instead

[@grayjedi9877]

André Gurkenstein yeah

[@chrissonofpear3657]

Borrows stuff from the old Dark Horse comics...

[@Bidoofus]

You misspelled the title

[@kirtan_singh]

Not only my favourite Star Wars book but my favourite book period.

[@alderalijd]

yo

[@Revilod]

Why did you change your name from Star Wars Minute to Star Wars Explained

[@ifonlycainwereabel2110]

Revilod 2000 copyright i think with a podcast

[@VelvetMagician]

Disciple* You might need a Grammar correction for the title my friend

[@jayturtle0523]

1:48 you repeated the same line lol

[@asilturkklc171]

I haven't read this, but frick that.

[@nully8765]

you should be an official partner with lucasfilms.

[@ethanroberson3141]

Hi

[@donaldduckdumb]

Fix the title

[@runningthemeta5570]

Alex did you just not get enough sleep or did you intentionally misspell disciple and repeat the part about a game being in development about a year before dark disciple

[@jfarfivethreetwosthree9522]

Disciple*

[@angelomatrix626]

.
