Synopsis:
This book collects together the following issues from Knights
of the Old Republic comic series:
- Issues 19, 20 & 21: Daze of Hate
Lord Adasca, head of the massive corporation
Adascorp, has set in motion a series of events that
will change the face of the war between the Republic
and the Mandalorians. He has arranged a meeting
aboard his flagship the Arkanian Legacy, and as each
invitee arrives, the nature of his game and its
stakes for the galaxy are revealed.
Elsewhere on the ship, the elderly Camper and his
young protector Jarael remained separated, each
growing more concerned about the fate of the other.
What are Lord Adasca's plans for them? If only their
friend, fugitive Padawan Zayne Carrick, would show
up to work some of his Jedi magic!
Sinister billionaire Lord Adasca is the organizer of
this fateful rendezvous, a mastermind with grand
plans for his race, the Arkanians, and his
corporation, Adascorp. What Adasca hasn't counted on
is the feisty Jarael, her elderly companion Camper,
or their fugitive Padawan friend Zayne Carrick
trying to stop these megalomaniacal machinations
despite impossible odds. Of course, as soon as the
three figure out how to escape Adasca's custody
without getting blasted by a dozen HK-24 assassin
droids, that's exactly what they're gonna do!
Aboard his massive flagship the Arkanian Legacy,
Lord Adasca believes his plan to become nothing less
than the most powerful being in the galaxy is about
achieve fruition. If he is to be stopped, fugitive
Padawan Zayne Carrick must risk it all with a
quickly conceived and untested scheme that requires
help from none other than his arch-nemesis and
former teacher--Jedi Master Lucien! Yet as these two
former enemies spring into action amidst Adasca's
carefully controlled meeting of the Republic and the
Mandalorians, another plot is set into motion--one
that will seal the fate of several major players
forever!
- Issue 22, 23 & 24: Knights of
Suffering
Deep in the lower city of Taris, swoop bike gangs
battle Mandalorian troops in the streets. An
organized resistance to the invasion was taking
shape thanks to an old friend of Zayne’s, but
something went terribly wrong.
Fugitive Padawan Zayne Carrick left Taris vowing to
catch his murderous Masters before they caught him.
Now, he's returned--only to find the planet under
siege by Mandalorian invaders. And there's someone
else waiting for him--who's about to turn the tables
on all his plans!
Nearly alone in a war zone, Zayne is surrounded by
enemies. Some want him brought to justice. Others
want the bounty on his head. And the Mandalorians
just want the whole planet! And when even friends
become enemies, he finds himself at the mercy of
someone who has no mercy--one of his former Masters!
Zayne Carrick’s murderous masters have hunted him
halfway across the galaxy. Now, his run ends with
him cornered in the very place where it began: in
the Jedi Temple of Taris, the current headquarters
of invading Mandalorian leader Cassus Fett!
Zayne’s escaped before, with help from his friends
and the Force, but not this time! His only choice is
to fight for his life, in mortal combat with his far
more talented teacher!
