Roanhorse, who is of Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo and African American descent, is a Nebula, Hugo, and Locus awards winner, as well as the recipient of the 2018 John W. There will be plenty of titles across the Star Wars timeline, and speculative fiction author Rebecca Roanhorse was chosen to write a prequel novel to Episode IX, Resistance Reborn (Del Rey).
