The Jedi Academy trilogy is a series of three science fiction novels written by Kevin J. Anderson and published in 1994. Set in the Star Wars Expanded Universe, the series takes place approximately seven years after the events of the 1983 film Return of the Jedi. It focuses on Luke Skywalker's efforts to reconstruct the Jedi Order following the fall of the Galactic Empire and the defeat of Emperor Palpatine. The narrative centers on the founding and early development of the Jedi Academy, detailing the challenges and experiences involved in training new Jedi. The trilogy is part of the broader Star Wars Expanded Universe and provides a perspective on the rebuilding of the Jedi Order during this period. Some story elements from the trilogy are revisited in I, Jedi by Michael A. Stackpole, though from a different narrative viewpoint.
