Cal Kestis leads the Mantis crew on an adventure set between Star
Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. Cal Kestis
has built a new life for himself with the crew of the Stinger
Mantis. Together, Cal's crew has brought down bounty hunters,
defeated Inquisitors, and even evaded Darth Vader himself. More
important, Merrin, Cere, Greez, and faithful droid BD-1 are the
closest thing Cal has had to a family since the fall of the Jedi
Order. Even as the galaxy's future grows more uncertain by the day,
with each blow struck against the Empire the Mantis crew grows more
daring. On what should be a routine mission, they meet a
stormtrooper determined to chart her own course with the help of
Cal and the crew. In exchange for help starting a new life, the
Imperial deserter brings word of a powerful, potentially invaluable
tool for their fight against the Empire. And even better, she can
help them get to it. The only catch-pursuing it will bring them
into the path of one of the Empire's most dangerous servants, the
Inquisitor known as the Fifth Brother. Can the Imperial deserter
truly be trusted? And while Cal and his friends have survived
run-ins with the Inquisitors before, how many times can they evade
the Empire before their luck runs out?

afloat. The night before a major heist, Anne has an unsettling
