As Thrawn mounts his final siege, Han and Chewbacca struggle to form a coalition of smugglers for a last-ditch attack against the empire, while Leia holds the Alliance together and prepares for the birth of her Jedi twins. Overwhelmed by the ships and clones at Thrawn's command, the Republic has one last hope--sending a small force, led by Luke Skywalker, into the very stronghold that houses Thrawn's terrible cloning machines. There a final danger awaits, as the Dark Jedi C'baoth directs the battle against the Rebels and builds his strength to finish what he had already started: the destruction of Luke Skywalker.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!

    Vijf jaar na de beslissende slag waarmee Return of the Jedi werd besloten, zijn prinses Leia en Han Solo getrouwd. Hun aandacht wordt echter vooral opgeëist door de zware taken die meekomen met de formering van de Nieuwe Republiek. Elders manifesteert Luke Skywalker zich als de eerste van een nieuwe generatie Jedi's van wie de vrede in het universum afhangt. Want tot duizenden lichtjaren verderop vinden nog steeds heftige schermutselingen plaats. De enige overgebleven Dark Lord, grootadmiraal Thrawn, heeft het bevel over de keizerlijke vloot op zich genomen. Met zijn vlaggenschip Chimaera koerst hij naar de planeet Jomark om daar op zoek te gaan naar machtige, lang geleden door de keizer verborgen wapens. Gaandeweg doet Thrawn twee ontdekkingen die, op de juiste wijze benut, wel eens het einde zouden kunnen betekenen van de wankele Nieuwe Republiek waarvoor het Rebellenverbond met zoveel kostbare levens duur betaalde.
