Synopsis:
Ki-Adi-Mundi is a Jedi Knight of formidable power and
influence, but not on his own homeworld of Cerea. Most
of the planet's citizens are happy to continue their
low-tech lives of simplicity, isolated from the
Republic, but a new generation of Cereans crave speeder
bikes and starships, and are prepared to fight their
elders for them! How can a Jedi take up arms against his
own children?
Ki-Adi-Mundi, Jedi Knight of the planet Cerea, has been
charged with murder, and only the high technology of the
Republic can exonerate him. But this isn't the most
brutal irony: Ki's own teenage daughter is an accessory
to the murder! Sinister forces are gathering around
Cerea, but what could they possibly want with a remote,
low-tech farm world?
As Ki-Adi-Mundi gets closer to the truth of who is
seeking to destabilize his homeworld, and why, he comes
closer and closer to his own doom, and only the dimly
remembered teachings of his diminutive Jedi Master can
save him!
Sylvn and the fugitives have taken flight from Cerea,
but their starship's cargo hold is fit to burst with a
load of unstoppable alien beasts. Action was what the
youngsters hoped to find in the spacelanes beyond their
provincial homeworld, but now they have more than they
bargained for, and a trial back home to face the
consequences of their actions is beginning to sound
downright cozy!
High above the desert sands of Tatooine, a battle of
life and death is taking place! On a freighter loaded
with bloodthirsty beasts, lone Jedi Ki-Adi-Mundi must
fight his way to his daughter, trapped in a
malfunctioning escape pod with the merciless -- but just
as helpless -- criminal Ephant Mon. Only Ki can save
them, but the only way to save them may be to let Ephant
Mon escape . . . with Ki's daughter!
As Ki races to save his daughter from the clutches of
the vile gangster Jabba the Hutt, he inadvertently
discovers that the Hutt crime lord is secretly procuring
munitions for a war fleet massing in orbit above
Tatooine. Suddenly, Ki's problems on his homeworld of
Cerea seem very small indeed!
