*The Jedi have struck a blow against tyranny. Can they strike down
ultimate evil?
*
Chief of State Natasi Daala has been overthrown, and the Jedi Order has
taken control of the Galactic Alliance. But while the new governors
dismantle Daala's draconian regime, forces still loyal to the deposed
official are mobilizing a counterstrike. And even the Jedi's new
authority may not be enough to save Tahiri Veila, the former Jedi Knight
and onetime Sith apprentice convicted of treason for the killing of
Galactic Alliance officer Gilad Pellaeon.
Meanwhile, Luke and Ben Skywalker are relentlessly pursuing Abeloth, the
powerful dark-side entity bent on ruling the galaxy. But as they corner
their monstrous quarry on the planet Nam Chorios, the two lone Jedi must
also face the fury of the Sith death squadron bearing down on them. And
when Abeloth turns the tables with an insidious ambush, the Skywalkers'
quest threatens to become a suicide mission.
