The Jedi Path, Fully Illustrated, with Removable
Features and a Mechanical Vault
With the push of a
button, the doors of the vault open in a wash of light and
Star Wars sound effects. The inner platform rises,
revealing this exclusive edition of The Jedi Path.
This ancient training manual, crafted by early Jedi
Masters, has educated and enlightened generations of Jedi.
It explains the history and hierarchy of the Jedi Order, and
what Jedi must know to take their place as defenders of the
peace in the galaxy—from mastery of the Force to the nuances
of lightsaber combat.
Passed down from Master to
Padawan, the pages of this venerable text have been
annotated by those who have held it, studied it, and lived
its secrets. From Yoda and Luke Skywalker to Count Dooku and
Darth Sidious, they have shaped the content of the book by
leaving mementos tucked within the pages, tearing out pages,
and adding their personal experiences as tangible reminders
of the lessons they’ve learned.
Through wars and
rebellion, only a single copy of this manual has survived.
It is now passed on to you.
The ancient
Masters who wrote the text: Fae Coven, Grand Master
and head of the Jedi Council; Crix Sunburris, Jedi Ace
starfighter pilot; Restelly Quist, Jedi Chief Librarian;
Skarch Vaunk, Jedi Battlemaster and lightsaber expert;
Bowspritz, Jedi Biologist and expert on the Living Force;
Sabla-Mandibu, Jedi Seer and Holocron expert; Morrit
Ch’gally, Jedi Recruiter; Gal-Stod Slagistrough, Jedi leader
of the Agricultural Corps.

Dooku, Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker,
Ahsoka Tano, Darth Sidious, and Luke Skywalker.
Removable features: A letter
tracing the book’s history, a severed Padawan braid, a metal
Jedi Credit medallion, a Jedi starfighter patch, a burned
poster of the Jedi Code, a map of the Jedi Temple, a
lightsaber diagram sketched on the back of a napkin from
Dex’s Diner, and a note on the missing pages torn from the
book by a Sith.
Created in collaboration with
Lucasfilm—along with an acclaimed Star Wars author
and revered Star Wars illustrators—this volume
provides new insights into the history and lore of the Jedi
Order while introducing never-before-seen ships, creatures,
characters, and details about how one trains to become a
Jedi.
The Jedi Path is for adults, and is intended
for ages 14 and up.
