The Secrets of the Sith (2021)

This book will explore the dark side of the Force -- with Emperor Palpatine serving as narrator. Like an artifact found in a Sith temple, The Secrets of the Sith is filled with many elements that some consider to be unnatural, including arcane knowledge, incredible artwork, and other interactive features, such as pop-ups, booklets, and lift-the-flap inserts.

The book, a follow-up to the popular The Secrets of the Jedi, covers everything from the Star Wars films to series to comics and beyond; readers will discover entries on some of the most legendary dark-side warriors, including Darth Maul, Asajj Ventress, Darth Vader, and Kylo Ren, along with Palpatine's own thoughts on several dark-side abilities.

Release date slated for August, 2021.

Could be interesting...

Could definitely be interesting. Learning from Sidious himself is such a great honor

Canon version of Book of the Sith it sounds like.

Should be a fun read. May also expand on the essence transfer ability that's been heavily debated. Along with Snoke.

Awesome Galan reckon it will mention the powers and abilities of each sith and their rank etc ?

This looks interesting I might have to buy

Oh cool, Nu Canon with an unreliable narrator.

I can't wait.

^ That's the only real 'problem' with this guide. Palpatine is the storyteller, which effectively makes most of the information provided... dubious.

I'm curious...

SW has a long history of in-universe sources for things like encyclopedias and such. It's been a point of contention on this very sub-forum because of absolute quotes taken absolutely when they're presented from in-universe, fallible, and possibly biased sources.

This book is likely to add to the fire, but since Disney canon is a mess anyways, who cares?

A few preview pages:

Also sounds like the release date has been pushed back to October 5th.

@Galan scans from this? I”ve been seeing some people posting scans.

There are a handful of preview pages floating around, but that's all I personally know of.

Awsome Galan when does it come out exactly?

October 5th.

Great awesome! Sorry i take it its Cannon?

The book is definitely canon. But the content of it is questionable since it is written by Palpatine

Palpatine seemed like a trustworthy guy.

The chancellor is a good person, don’t believe in Jedi peopaganda

where would you recommend the best place to buy it from ? Amazon etc?

Most people are going to download it illegally here including the mods.

Me? I go through Amazon.
