KLEYA’S WAR - A STAR WARS SERIES.

She was never meant to survive… When her people are erased by the Empire, a young survivor is drawn into the orbit of Luthen Rael. Grief becomes discipline, discipline becomes deception, and deception becomes one of the Rebellion’s greatest weapons. Spanning the events of Andor, Rogue One and beyond, Kleya’s War follows Kleya Marki through the unseen conflict that helped ignite the Galactic Civil War. From Imperial academies and Army corridors to the hidden underground networks that keep the Rebel Alliance alive, every victory demands another piece of herself. As Kleya moves deeper into the shadows, she discovers that surviving the Empire is only the beginning. The harder battle is surviving what the Empire, and the Rebellion, ask her to become. A character-driven saga of espionage, sacrifice, moral compromise and memory, Kleya’s War explores the hidden cost of rebellion, where every alias leaves a scar, every mission has a price, and sometimes the greatest battle is remembering who you were before the war began.

“I'm condemned to use the tools of my enemy to defeat them."

And above it all, a darker shadow begins to descend.

In the Galactic Civil War, can she help keep the Rebel Alliance alive without becoming another casualty of the tools she has chosen to use?

Mon steadied her tone. “What matters is that the evidence endures. When the time is right, there will be justice.”

“Justice?” Kleya’s lips curved, sharp. “Strange. Chandrila was never a Separatist world?”

“It wasn’t,” Mon answered evenly. “But justice for one world is justice for all. Truth can wound the Empire in ways fleets cannot.”

— Kleya Marki & Senator Mon Mothma

The Eye of The Executioner by Rob Summers

She was never meant to survive Day Zero on her planet. But she did. Years later Kleya Marki is a rebel, a spy, a weapon — caught between loyalty, desire, and the ghosts of a genocide the galaxy has forgotten. The bacta has no mercy... And now she remembers why. Set in the slow-burn shadow of ‘Andor: A Star Wars Story’, The Eye of the Executioner follows one woman’s fight to survive the Empire’s silence — and her own.

You ask me to trust a woman unconscious, her last words riddled with ambiguity.”
