Luke Skywalker wanted to unify the Jedi order and bring peace to the
universe. Instead his wife Mara lies dead at the hands of an unknown
assassin, his wayward nephew Jacen has seized control of the Galactic
Alliance, and the galaxy has exploded in all-out civil war.
With Luke consumed by grief, Jacen Solo works quickly to consolidate his
power and jumpstart his plan to take over the Jedi. Convinced he's the
only one who can save the galaxy, Jacen will do whatever it takes, even
ambush his own parents.
With the Rebel confederacy driving deep into the Core to attack
Coruscant and the Jedi under siege, Luke must reassert his position.
Only he can lead the Jedi through this crisis, but it means solving the
toughest problem Luke's ever faced. Does he fight alongside his nephew
Jacen, a tyrant who's illegally taken over the GA, or does he join the
rebels to smash the Galactic Alliance he helped create?
