Synopsis:
This book collects together the following issues from Tales
of the Jedi comic series:
- Issues 1 & 2: Ulic Qel-Droma and the
Beast Wars of Onderon
Journey back four thousand years and learn of
the time when the Jedi Knights were the most
powerful, most respected force in the galaxy. A time
when many worlds and civilizations fell to the Dark
Side of the Force, and the only hope of millions of
innocent beings were the legion of Jedi sworn to
protect them. A time of great adventure, and greater
danger!
Sent on a deadly training mission to a planet
overrun with gigantic beasts, the young Jedi Ulic
Qel-Droma must settle a war that has raged for
centuries without losing his cool or his head!
- Issues 3, 4 & 5: The Saga of Nomi
Sunrider
The path to becoming a Jedi can take many
routes, and in the case of Nomi Sunrider, it is a
path of anguish, despair, and danger. When Andur,
the father of her child and a Jedi in training, is
murdered in front of her eyes, Nomi has no choice
but to take up her beloved's lightsaber and defend
herself! Join Nomi as she begins to walk the path of
the Jedi herself, and begins her search for the
mysterious Master Thon.
Nomi's wish to raise her daughter in a peaceful
world is shattered by her true destiny: to become a
great and powerful Jedi, whose latent Force power
surprises even her mentor, the enigmatic Master
Thon.
Meanwhile, the crimelord responsible for her
husband's death, Bogga the Hutt, plots to steal
Nomi's Adegan Crystals, the precious gems used in
creating lightsabers, and the final gift of her
departed mate!
Deep within Nomi Sunrider is a great Force-power, a
power unlike that of her fellow novice Jedi. Still
unwilling to take the seemingly violent path of a
Jedi in training, Nomi has supressed her remarkable
abilities. Until now! Bogga the Hutt, with the aid
of intergalactic marauders, has destroyed what is
left of Nomi's former life. If she does not take up
a lightsaber and strike her enemies down, both she
and her only child, Vima, will die!
