Jedi Search
As the war between the Republic and the scattered remnants of the
Empire continues, two children – the Jedi twins – will come into their
powers in a universe on the brink of vast changes and challenges. In
this time of turmoil and discovery, an extraordinary new Star Wars saga begins...
While Luke Skywalker takes the first step
toward setting up an academy to train a new order of Jedi Knights, Han
Solo and Chewbacca are taken prisoner on the planet Kessel and forced
to work in the fathomless depths of a spice mine. But when Hans and
Chewie break away, they flee desperately to a secret imperial research
laboratory surrounded by a cluster of black holes – and go from one
danger to a far greater one...
On Kessel, Luke picks up the
trail of his two friends, only to come face to face with a weapon so
awesome, it can wipe out an entire solar system. It is a death ship
called the Sun Crusher, invented by a reclusive genius and piloted by
none other than Han himself...
