New Star Wars Book Explores Vader’s Obsession with Death
Lucasfilm Unveils New Star Wars Novel: Master of Evil by Adam Christopher
In an exciting development for Star Wars fans, Lucasfilm has announced a new addition to its publishing lineup: Master of Evil, a novel centered around Darth Vader and his chilling obsession with the power to conquer death.
Written by New York Times bestselling author Adam Christopher, Master of Evil promises to explore the darker, more haunting elements of Vader’s journey—both as a Sith Lord and as the tortured soul of Anakin Skywalker. According to early details, the novel “chronicles Vader’s haunting pursuit for the power to conquer death,” hinting at a storyline that may echo his past desperation to save Padmé Amidala and his continued obsession with immortality.
Christopher, who previously penned Shadow of the Sith, returns to the galaxy far, far away with what many expect to be a chilling psychological dive into the inner workings of one of pop culture’s most iconic villains.
While a release date has not yet been confirmed, the announcement has already ignited excitement across fan communities, with many speculating how Master of Evil will tie into both canon and lore from previous films and novels.
