Star Wars: A New Dawn is a Star Wars novel by John Jackson Miller, published in September 2014. A prequel to the animated television series Star Wars Rebels, it introduces the characters Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla. A New Dawn was the first novel published in the franchise after Lucasfilm redefined Star Wars continuity in April 2014.
Set eight years after the events of the 2005 film Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith and seven years before Star Wars Rebels, A New Dawn introduces the television series characters Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla.
In April 2014, most of the licensed Star Wars novels and comics produced since the originating 1977 film Star Wars were rebranded by Lucasfilm as Star Wars Legends and declared non-canon to the franchise.A New Dawn was subsequently announced as the first of four canon novels to be released in 2014 and 2015.
In addition to Star Wars Rebels characters Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla, A New Dawn introduces Imperial captain Rae Sloane, who is later a Grand Admiral in the Aftermath trilogy (2015–2017).
