Synopsis:
Though the Jedi strike force completed its deadly
mission into Yuuzhan Vong territory, the price of
success was tragedy: not everyone made it out alive. In
a daring getaway, hotshot pilot Jaina Solo stole an
enemy ship, taking along her fellow survivors - and
leaving behind a huge piece of her heart.
With the enemy in hot pursuit, Jaina is forced to seek
haven in the unprotected, unfriendly Hapes Cluster,
where the Jedi are held responsible for a past tragedy -
and where the royal family has grim plans for their
famous Jedi guest. Even more sinister are the intentions
of the Yuuzhan Vong, desperate to capture Jaina for a
hideous sacrifice.
Grief-stricken and obsessed with revenge, Jaina is blind
to these threats - and to the overpowering evil
dangerously close to consuming her. In the coming
conglagration, Jaina will be fighting not for victory or
vengeance, but for her very being... |
