This is welcome news. As a Thrawn fan, I was troubled when Del Rey Star Wars announced the unforeseen scheduling conflict that had forced a delay to the book’s hotly-anticipated release. But at least we can all look forward to returning to the galaxy far, far away alongside our favorite Imperial tactician one month earlier than expected.
Also of note, the publisher has confirmed that the audiobook version will once again be narrated by Marc Thompson.
Mark the date on your calendar. Grand Admiral Thrawn strikes back on September 1st.
