We should all know by now that Greg Rucka is a master storyteller. I was familiar with his work in comic books, but this is my first time reading him like this, in full-text. It was a pretty good introduction, I must say. Before the Awakening is a short tie-in book that presents us to three introductory short stories about the main characters of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the seventh Star Wars film. Rucka manages to use stories that are nothing but introductions, really, to make us sympathize and relate to the characters, even the ones we don't really know beforehand—Devi and Strunk, for example, or even the now infamous stormtrooper FN-2199/Nines. I wouldn't call it a “classic” Star Wars book, but I recommend it if you like the series and/or if you want more information about Finn, Rey, and Poe.
