Publisher's summary

With the Empire's influence expanding, those who oppose them are presented with a difficult decision: surrender… or resist. Some establish small groups of defiance on planets consumed by conflict. Others operate in secrecy, attempting to undermine the Empire from the inside. Still others observe and await an opportunity.

For Ferus Olin, his animosity towards the Empire is deeply rooted in personal experience. He has witnessed the destruction of everything he held dear. The Jedi Order, to which he once belonged, has been all but eliminated. And the prospects for the future appear bleak…

That is, unless a genuine Rebellion can emerge.

This exciting new series comes from the The New York Times bestselling author responsible for Jedi Apprentice and Jedi Quest.

Plot summary

Trevor finds himself within the Imperial Navy Academy located on Coruscant with the objective of rescuing Lune, and he is encountering considerable difficulty adapting. He knows he must remain until he can assist the boy. However, after their reunion, Lune is selected by Jenna Zan Arbor for experimentation. Vader has engaged her services to erase memories, seeking to eliminate thoughts of his past existence, including Padme.

Consumed by a thirst for vengeance, Ferus utilizes his rage to conceal his suffering. He is on a perilous path, and while he acknowledges the justifications he makes are hollow, he is resigned to his descent. He enlists Roan's relative, Malory, to accept employment at a Coruscant hospital in order to gather intelligence regarding Vader. It is there that he becomes acutely aware of the immense danger posed by the allure of the Dark Side.

Flame demonstrates a genuine commitment to aiding the Eleven on Ussa. Clive journeys to Acherin to delve deeper into her background.
