To find out, Luke, Mara, Han and Leia must embark on a perilous journey into the unknown void between right and wrong. For a strange yet devastating dispute is about to explode into chaos, pitting Jedi against each other and threatening the galaxy itself.
This book was great like all Troy Denning books.He really adds the ongoing flavor of the Star Wars theme and makes you feel like you haven't missed a thing in the time-line.
A must read as are all of his SW books.
Part of a very good Star Wars trilogy taking place decades after Return of the Jedi. The part I found most fascinating was Luke's quest to learn more about his parents through a recording of Revenge of the Sith events made by R2D2, although the droid is not about to show the information if he can avoid it. Alas, this is only a small part of the overall story although the entire three books held my attention.
