Synopsis:
Luke Skywalker summons the heroes of the New Jedi Order
from near and far as the Star Wars galaxy teeters
on the edge of eternal war. Yet even the combined powers
of the formidable Jedi may not be enough to vanquish the
deadly perils confronting them.
The Chiss-Killik border war is threatening to engulf the
entire galaxy, raising the awful specter of the Killik
sweeping across space to absorb all living creatures
into a single hive mind. The only hope for peace lies
with the Jedi, who must not only end the bloodshed
between two fierce enemies but also combat the insidious
evil spread by the elusive Dark Nest and its unseen
queen.
Leia's Jedi skills will be put to the ultimate test in
the coming life-and-death battle. As for Luke, he will
have to prove, in a lightning display of Force strength
and swordplay, that he is, beyond a shadow of a doubt,
the greatest Jedi Master in the galaxy. |
