Publisher Description

The New Jedi Order continues as Jaina Solo struggles with anger and despair after the Jedi Knights’ harrowing adventure behind enemy lines. Though the Jedi strike force completed its deadly mission into Yuuzhan Vong territory, the price of success was tragedy: not everyone made it out alive. In a daring getaway, hotshot pilot Jaina Solo stole an enemy ship, taking along her fellow survivors—and leaving behind a huge piece of her heart. With the enemy in hot pursuit, Jaina is forced to seek haven in the unprotected, unfriendly Hapes Cluster, where the Jedi are held responsible for a past tragedy—and where the royal family has grim plans for their famous Jedi guest. Even more sinister are the intentions of the Yuuzhan Vong, desperate to capture Jaina for a hideous sacrifice. Grief-stricken and obsessed with revenge, Jaina is blind to these threats—and to the overpowering evil dangerously close to consuming her. In the coming conflagration, Jaina will be fighting not for victory or vengeance, but for her very being.

"A great addition to the NJO. The major story line covers how Jaina deals with Anakin's death. Kyp's role is nicely done. Cunnigham's greatest strength in this book is the strong, clear character development. Definitely recommended to Star Wars fans. "

    " Remember that one book where Kyp Durron was sexy and mysterious and appealing, in spite of being a mass murderer? Yeah, me too. I miss those days. "

    " More like 3 1/2 stars ... but I liked that the "next generation" Jaina and the other YJK'ers were fairly main characters ... "

    " Not very well paced... Rushes the interesting character development parts and goes through great lengths to spell out the boring parts about Hapan culture and intrigue... "

    " The New Jedi Order is my favorite series in the Star Wars Expanded Universe. It is a long and epic story, with large ramifications for all the Expanded Universe characters. It will keep you busy for a while! "

    " I really liked this book. The only reason it gets a 4 instead of a 5 is the horribly abrupt ending. I wanted a little more time to digest Jaina's return to the light after walking such a dark path. "

    " Not my favorite, even though it was centered around one of my favorite characters(Jaina). The behavior was uncharacteristic of her and while it is understandable, I just didn't want her to fall prey to the obvious. "
