Publisher Description

In the explosive conclusion to the Dark Nest trilogy, Luke Skywalker summons the heroes of the New Jedi Order from near and far, as the Star Wars galaxy teeters on the edge of eternal war. Yet even the combined powers of the formidable Jedi may not be enough to vanquish the deadly perils confronting them.

The Chiss-Killik border war is threatening to engulf the entire galaxy and raising the awful specter of Killiks sweeping across space to absorb all living creatures into a single hive mind. The only hope for peace lies with the Jedi, who must not only end the bloodshed between two fierce enemies but also combat the insidious evil spread by the elusive Dark Nest and its unseen queen.

Leia's newly acquired Jedi skills will be put to the ultimate test in the coming life-and-death battle. As for Luke, he will have to prove, in a lightning display of Force strength and swordplay, that he is beyond a doubt the greatest Jedi Master in the galaxy.

"Interesting follow-up to the too long New Jedi Order series. The Killiks are a bit frustrating sometimes, but Leia's turn to Jedi Academy makes up for that, she and Saba are such a good pair. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " One of the worst Star Wars book series comes to an end that is predictable, boring, and with a final battle that's way too short. "

    " The last book in the Dark Nest trilogy, it's on par with its predecessors. Part way into this book, you will realize that most of it (and the series) was a set up for the Legacy of the Force series. Still worth reading for Dennings's good character work and excellent action scenes. "

    " I enjoyed this book, but it was the least interesting of the three. The R2 Situation came to a conclusion and I found that integrating quite well done and satisfactory. However, as with the NJO Series this war ended rather suddenly in an anti-climatic fashion. "

    " A decent ending to frustrating trilogy. I'm not sure why but the whole time I was reading the last two books I just couldn't wait to get to the end. "

    " I wasn't overly impressed with this first installment. It lags and wanders and frankly, the entire story should've been limited to this one book. "

    " I read this to be up to date on the Star Wars characters between The New Jedi Order and Legacy of the Force. Jaina and Zekk and Jacen are living with giant bugs who have telepathic links. It's sooooo weird. "
