Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
 
THE GALAXY STANDS LEADERLESS. CAN THE JEDI SAVE IT—OR WILL THEIR ENEMIES ENSLAVE IT?

The toppling of ruthless Natasi Daala has left a political vacuum on Coruscant and ignited a power struggle between opposing factions racing to claim control of the Galactic Alliance. Surrounded by hidden agendas, treacherous conspiracies, and covert Sith agents, the Jedi Order must keep the government from collapsing into anarchy—while facing the combined threats of the resurgent Lost Sith Tribe, a deposed dictator bent on vengeance, and the enduring menace of Abeloth, the profoundly evil entity hungry to become a god.
 
“[Christie] Golden’s excellent storytelling captures the essence of the beloved space opera and should leave series followers eagerly anticipating the story’s conclusion.”—Library Journal

    I have read both the Legacy of the force series, star wars republic commando series, and now this one! This series is awesome! *SPOILER FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T READ THE BOOK* It does sorta stink that vestara goes back to the dark side but whatever. It makes it more interesting. Maybe she does hopefully. *SOILER ENDING* all in all this is an awesome series!
  • Absolute page-turner!
