This article contains spoilers for "Star Wars -- The High Republic: Escape From Valo."
"Escape From Valo" is the latest novelized "Star Wars" offering in the era of "The High Republic." Written by Daniel José Older and Alyssa Wong, it follows the Jedi Padawan Ram Jomaram (previously seen in books like "The High Republic: Race to Crashpoint Tower" and "The High Republic: The Rising Storm") as he finds himself deep inside the Nihil Occlusion Zone, trapped on the planet Valo. Valo was the site of the Republic Fair -- sort of an intergalactic World's Fair -- and a brutal attack by the Nihil.
For those not up to date on the High Republic Era, the Nihil is a brutal band of pirates that uses secret paths in hyperspace lanes to maraud the Republic. After causing a massive calamity in hyperspace, they drew the attention of the Jedi, who became their sworn enemies.

Following the recent news about Patty Jenkins' departure from "Wonder Woman 3," the director posted an update on social media to set the record straight:
"I originally left 'Rogue Squadron' after a long and productive development process when it became clear it couldn't happen soon enough and I did not want to delay 'Wonder Woman 3' any further. When I did, Lucasfilm asked me to consider coming back to 'Rogue Squadron' after 'Wonder Woman 3,' which I was honored to do, so I agreed. They made a new deal with me. In fact, I am still on it and that project has been in active development ever since. I don't know if it will happen or not.
