The character of Fennec Shand

If you’re not a Star Wars fan, don’t read this. The story is long and unfolds in parallel lines. You’ll have to watch the entire series and movies to understand Star Wars. As for Fennec Shand, she is not a former character and was introduced in 2019. FYI, Min-Na Wen herself has been an ardent Star Wars fan since childhood and was introduced in “Chapter 5 : The Gunslinger” from The Mandalorian.

Fennec Shand was nearly killed in Chapter 5: The Gunslinger of The Mandalorian. However, she was saved by Boba Fett in Chapter 14: The Tragedy. His body parts have been replaced with cybernetics. Since then, the mercenary has become the right arm of Boba Fett and has assisted him in various adventures.

In The Book of Boba Fett, Shand and Boba come into conflict with several enemies trying to take over Tatooine. They befriend the Mandalorian once more to defend their new empire from crime. If you haven’t watched Boba Fett, now is the time. However, it would be nice if you watched The Mandalorian first to come to some understanding.
