STAR WARS

As theNewRepublic takes devastating losses in the ongoing war with the
scattered remnants of the Empire, the galaxy's future depends on three small
children--among them the Jedi twins--butorn to incredible powers and perils, as
an extraordinary new Star Wars R saga unfolds....
While theNewRepublic struggles to decide what to do with the deadly Sun
Crusher--a new doomsday weapon stolen from the Empire by Han Solo--the
renegade imperial Admiral Daala uses her fleet of Star Destroyers to conduct
guerrilla warfare on peaceful planets. And now she threatens the watery
homeworld of Admiral Ackbar. But as the battle for a planet rages, an even
greater danger emerges at Luke Skywalker's Jedi academy. A brilliant student
delves dangerously into the dark side of the Force and unleashes the spirit of
an ancient master of the evil order that warped Darth Vader himself. Working
together, they may become an enemy greater than any the New Republic has
ever fought... more powerful than even a Jedi Master can face.

showing daily life on the planets in the Star Wars universe. He is also editing
three anthologies of short stories, the first of which--Tales from the
Mos Eisley Cantina - comtells the stories of all the bizarre characters from the
famous Star Wars Cantina scene.
