Movie.
The very first book of Starwars was called "Star Wars: Rogue Planet"
Star Wars came out in 1977; Indiana Jones came out in 1981
The films did in fact come before the books. Obviously, the first three Star Wars movies were made in the 1970s and 1980s. After they were released, several books began appearing in stores for people to buy. If I am not mistaking I believe that the first book of the Thrawn Trilogy was the first Star Wars novel to be released. This answer is so wrong. I still own the first Star Wars book that I purchased in 1976 (a year before the Star Wars movie first came out).
The first Star Wars book with Luke Skywalker in it was George Lucas' novelization of A New Hope written in the late 70's. If you are wondering about in the Star Wars timeline, the answer would be the Novelization of Revenge of the Sith.
The Star Wars books have various settings, if by chance you mean the novelization of the first movie, A New Hope, which was originally called Star Wars, it would be the same as the movie. Tatooine is the main planet. The rest of the movie/book takes place either in space or on The Death Star.
Star Wars started out as a movie, but the movie was novelized. The novelization was written by Alan Dean Foster, and it's based on a draft of George Lucas' screenplay for Star Wars. The novelization actually came out before the movie (so did the comic book adaptation), but Star Wars started as a movie.
there might be but there is a book by Sean Williams
The first Star Wars novel came out in 1976. It was simply titled "Star Wars" by George Lucas and Alan Dean Foster. However, it has since come to be know as "Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope".
In my opinion the books are not as good as the movies but most of the Star Wars comics are really good.
no
There are uncountable books. There are the movie books(which are what most people think of), and then there are the book-books.
No
