Jedi and Sith fight side by side against an even greater foe.
But how long can enemies remain allies?
And how high is the price of betrayal?
In a stunning turn of events, Luke Skywalker and his son, Ben, joined forces with the Sith armada sent to kill them—and used their combined might against the monstrous being Abeloth. But when the wounded creature escapes, the fragile armistice crumbles, and hostilities resume with the attempted assassination of Luke.
On the hunt for Abeloth and on the run from the Sith, Luke and Ben find themselves trapped by a mob of angry Force adepts who care little for the difference between light side and dark side.
With the Jedi’s most famous father-and-son team outnumbered and outgunned, the countdown to galactic disaster has begun—and time is running out.
Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!

On a jungle world deep within the Maw Cluster, Luke Skywalker and his son Ben form a fragile alliance with the Sith to uncover the secrets behind the entity known as the Abeloth before it destroys Sith and Jedi alike. Back on Coruscant, Han and Leia Solo become embroiled in the escalating conflict between the Jedi Order and the ambitious and ruthless leader of the Galactic Alliance. The sixth installment of the nine-book "Fate of the Jedi" series brings important conflicts to a head while laying the groundwork for new complications. VERDICT Featuring the familiar heroes of the Star Wars(R) films as well as the next generation of Skywalkers and Solos, the latest novel by the author of Star Wars(R) Fate of the Jedi; Abyss as well as numerous other Star Wars(R) titles should be in great demand among fans of the series and of space opera in general.

The sixth in a nine-part series finds Luke and Ben continuing their uneasy alliance with the Sith as they investigate the mysterious history of Abeloth, hoping to find out how she caused the Jedi to go mad and how she was freed from her prison. On Coruscant, Leia and Han lead a rescue mission to get the two Horns out of their carbonite prison, thus bringing the inevitable confrontation between the Jedi and Admiral Daala ever closer. Out on the Rim, the slave unrest looks like it might become an outright uprising. Denning does an excellent job moving the action forward, working with the multiple plotlines introduced in the previous five books and adding new elements that will excite fans eager for books seven, eight, and nine. As usual, there is plenty of action and excitement, with the drama evenly spread among the major characters. Sure to be a popular addition to all sf collections.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2010, American Library Association.)
