Synopsis:
This book collects together the following comic stories:
-
Honor and Duty
An important Senate vote is immanent, and a
Senator from a small system is suddenly in
possession of two things he never expected to have:
the power of a "swing" vote, and a death
threat! At the insistence of the Supreme Chancellor,
Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan Anakin
Skywalker are ordered to help protect the Senator -
along with the Senator's regular team of Senate
Guards. Ordinarily, four stalwart protectors would
be more than enough to ensure the Senator's safety,
but as the Jedi and the Guards discover, this
situation is far from ordinary...
Obi-Wan and Anakin have their hands full protecting
Senator Greyshade from attacks by droid assassins,
sky-bike riding Dug assassins, and beautiful
assassin princesses with diplomatic immunity.
Meanwhile, Autem and Omin, the two Senate Guards who
are also on the Greyshade assignment, discover a
common link among the assassins -- a link that
strikes a little too close to home for Autem.
Obi-Wan and Anakin's lightsabers are working
overtime as they are confronted by assassins on all
sides -- a beautiful princess with a penchant for
deadly toys and exotic martial arts; a radio-pathic
alien with specially-constructed battle droids; and
a crazed Dug on a speeder bike. Meanwhile, the two
Senate Guards assigned to the case are making
disturbing discoveries about the person who hired
the assassins. For one of the Guard's, "family
ties" may be a noose that drags him to death
and disgrace!
Occurs approximately 8 years after the Battle of
Naboo.

Loyalties
Palpatine calls a meeting of his bravest,
wisest, and most influential military officers in
order to introduce them to his new right-hand man,
Darth Vader!
The new Emperor lays out his plans for his Empire,
and those who have other ideas are dealt a swift
lesson by Vader's blade. But one Captain wants
nothing to do with the new government, and plans his
defection. But what do you do when the Dark Lord of
the Sith is determined to stop you?
Occurs approximately months after the end of the
Clone Wars.
