Book of Interest: Star Wars: The Last Order

I had no idea that Finn and Jannah had a Star Wars book, Star Wars: The last Order by Kwame Mbalia. According to the description, it takes place after the final Disney Star Wars sequel trilogy movie The Rise of Skywalker which was an okay movie that could have been better. Anyway, at the end of the movie, Finn and Jannah left with Lando Calrissian in search of their past. And with the way Finn was sidelined throughout most of the sequel trilogy, it's nice to see him get some attention with this book. As well as Jannah who was introduced in The Rise of Skywalker.

I think it will be interesting to see what parts of their past will be uncovered and focused on. I'm sure their past as former stormtroopers will be explored especially with how the First Order abducted and brainwashed children and turned them into soldiers. I wonder if Lando will make an appearance in this story. Anyway, The last Order seems like it'll be an interesting read.
