Star Wars - Fate of the Jedi, ALLIES
What began as a quest for truth has become a struggle for survival for Luke Skywalker and his son, Ben. They have used the secrets of the Mindwalkers to transcend their own bodies and speak with the spirits of the fallen, risking their very lives in the process. They have faced a team of Sith assassins and beaten the odds to destroy them. And now the death squad’s sole survivor, Sith apprentice Vestara Khai, has summoned an entire fleet of Sith frigates to engage the embattled father and son. But the dark warriors come bearing a surprising proposition that will bring Jedi and Sith together in an unprecedented alliance against an evil more ancient and alien than they can imagine. While the Skywalkers and their Sith allies set off on their joint mission into the treacherous web of black holes that is the Maw, Han and Leia Solo risk arrest and worse to aid the Jedi imprisoned back on Coruscant. Tyrannical Chief of State Natasi Daala has issued orders that will open a permanent schism between her government and the Jedi Order—a schism that could turn all Jedi into renegades and wanted criminals. But it is in the depths of the Maw that the future of the galaxy will be decided. For there the Skywalkers and their Sith allies will engage a true monster in battle, and Luke will come face-to-face with a staggering truth. I'm very excited to know what readers think about ALLIES. I'm having so much fun with this series! #5 is a pivotal book in a nine book series, so there's going to be a lot that happens. I think this also may be the longest book in the series so far--and I know readers will appreciate that. Look for it on shelves on May 25! |

StarWars Fate of the Jedi - Omen Star Wars. I was thirteen years old when the first movie rocked my world as it exploded onto the move theater screen. Luke, Han and Leia have been a fixture in my life ever since, as they have been for so many. As I grew older and learned to appreciate the Hero's Journey, the universe just got richer and more interesting to me. Now I get to write about Luke Skywalker and his son Ben as they journey together, and Han and Leia and their daughter Jaina as they too face great challenges. I will be writing three of the nine books of the FATE OF THE JEDI series, along with Aaron Allston and Troy Denning. It will be a challenge, certainly, but also...let's be honest here...a dream come true. Barnes & Noble - Amazon.com - Borders - Powells - Indiebound |
