Publisher's summary

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 Yuuvhan 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.

Critic reviews

"Alexander Adams reads the body of this work with smooth excitement." (AudioFile)

Featured Article: Bright Suns! On Star Wars, Fandom, and a Trip to the Galaxy's Edge


There’s a universality to the Star Wars franchise, a world so sprawling that no matter who you are, you’re bound to find something—an adventure, a moment, a character—that resonates with you. And if you were to ask any fan, they’d likely be able to recount a memory directly tied to the series. On a 2021 journey from the East Coast to the Outer Rim, one Audible editor and Star Wars superfan saw all of her wildest, most interstellar dreams become reality.

Using the force is no longer only light or dark.

Would you listen to Star Wars again? Why?

Yes, because I love the stories.

What did you like best about this story?

They finally brought out that both sides of the force can be used by the same person without the having to commit to being one or the other.

difficult to follow plot due to abridgement

I've listened to most of these books abridged and they are not as hard to follow as this.

Heavily abridged. But coheirent.

Such a great story and finally a followup to the drama in the Hapes Consortium. After the courtship of princess leia and lighsabers did some heavy setup, this book finally pays off so many of the details we’ve learned about Tenal Ka and her family hijynx. If only the audiobook included more of her story and her unwanted rise to power. Love the NJO books and listening to this was better than nothing yet i wish someone would make unabridged versions of these books. Jaina Solo shines on her fall to the darkside. Solid book. Horrid audiobook.

Paid too much!!

I knew what I was getting into buying the abridged versions of this but these last few in the series were BUTCHERED! Actually hard to follow the story it was so badly edited! Don't have time to read all the books but I feel I need to now.
