"The Sith are destined to betray each other....A lesson you'll soon come to know."
The Republic's fall is now a thing of the past. Separatist armies have been utterly defeated, the Jedi Council has been almost completely wiped out, and the remaining Jedi are nearly gone. Now, Darth Sidious—the devious Sith Lord also known as the former Senator, now Emperor, Palpatine—holds absolute power. However, more must be accomplished. The galaxy still has pockets of resistance that must be taken care of, and any remaining Jedi must be found…and eliminated. Darth Vader, the Emperor's merciless enforcer, is in charge of these crucial duties. The Dark Lord, in turn, has trained a deadly apprentice to carry out a highly secret mission: to scour the galaxy and eliminate the last of his master's adversaries, thus sealing the dark side's triumph with the Jedi's annihilation.
Vader's nameless agent has only known the harsh, mercenary code of the Sith since he was a child. His past is a blank slate; his present is defined by carrying out his deadly orders. However, his future shines like a dark, glittering gem, promising him the ultimate reward: standing alongside the only father he has ever known, with the galaxy under their control. He can only achieve this destiny by overcoming the greatest challenge of his training: destroying Emperor Palpatine.
The apprentice will travel to the galaxy's farthest reaches, from the Wookiee home planet of Kashyyyk to the scrap heap planet of Raxus Prime. During these missions, the young Sith student will form an improbable alliance with a disgraced Jedi Master seeking atonement and struggle with forbidden feelings for his beautiful comrade, Juno Eclipse. And he will face unprecedented challenges, including earth-shattering revelations that shake the foundations of his beliefs and awaken long-dormant desires to reclaim his identity…and alter his fate.
