THE NEXT CHAPTER IN THE EXTRAORDINARY HISTORY OF THE STAR WARS
GALAXY BEGINS HERE. . . .
After a violent civil war and the devastation wrought by the
now-fallen Darth Caedus, the Galactic Alliance is in crisis-and in
need. From all corners, politicians, power brokers, and military
leaders converge on Coruscant for a crucial summit to restore
order, negotiate differences, and determine the future of their
unified worlds. But even more critical, and far more uncertain, is
the future of the Jedi.
In a shocking move, Chief of State Natasi Daala orders the arrest
of Luke Skywalker for failing to prevent Jacen Solo's turn to the
dark side and his subsequent reign of terror as a Sith Lord. But
it's only the first blow in an anti-Jedi backlash fueled by a
hostile government and suspicious public. When Jedi Knight Valin
Horn, scion of a politically influential family, suffers a
mysterious psychotic break and becomes a dangerous fugitive, the
Jedi become the target of a media-driven witch hunt. Facing
conviction on the damning charges, Luke must strike a bargain with
the calculating Daala: his freedom in exchange for his exile from
Coruscant and from the Jedi Order.
Though forbidden to intervene in Jedi affairs, Luke is determined
to keep history from being repeated. With his son, Ben, at his
side, Luke sets out to unravel the shocking truth behind Jacen
Solo's corruption and downfall. But the secrets he uncovers among
the enigmatic Force mystics of the distant world Dorin may bring
his quest-and life as he knows it-to a sudden end. And all the
while, another Jedi Knight, consumed by the same madness as Valin
Horn, is headed for Coruscant on a fearsome mission that could doom
the Jedi Order . . . and devastate the entire galaxy.
