For a considerable time, the galactic landscape between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope remained shrouded in mystery for Star Wars enthusiasts. However, with the advent of Star Wars Rebels and Rogue One_, and more recently,_ Obi-Wan Kenobi and Andor_, a captivating new era, known as the Dawn of Rebellion, has begun to unfold._
Prior to Luke Skywalker's introduction to the lightsaber, the rebels consisted of scattered and determined groups of idealists, each waging their own battles against the formidable Empire. Successes were infrequent, losses were substantial, and danger was ever-present. This Visual Guide meticulously documents this era of darkness, showcasing prominent characters, locations, vehicles, and weaponry featured in the acclaimed Disney+ series Obi-Wan Kenobi and Andor_. It also includes never-before-seen cross-sectional illustrations._
The official announcement regarding the creation of Star Wars Dawn of Rebellion The Visual Guide occurred on March 9, 2023. Subsequently, on April 12, Pablo Hidalgo, one of the book's co-authors, verified the completion of the initial draft.
Dawn of Rebellion indicates that Alexsandr Kallus' squad was lost during 7 BBY. Conversely, Star Wars: Timelines, a reference book also published in 2023, places the attack in 18 BBY and dates Kallus's appearance in "Flight of the Falcon, Part 1: Spy Games" around 10 BBY. The 2019 reference book Ultimate Star Wars, New Edition, along with its 2024 update, Star Wars Encyclopedia: The Comprehensive Guide to the Star Wars Galaxy, identifies Kallus's mission to Onderon as his first assignment for the Empire. Considering the Timelines date for "Spy Games" and the fact that the Onderon attack must be Kallus's first mission, the attack cannot logically take place in 7 BBY.
