To our brothers and sisters -

Mark - who has been my hero since childhood.  A true Jedi Knoght, always ready to race to the rescue.

Cindy - who always watched out for me.  You showed me that effort and determination will get you what wishing and waiting will not.

Diane - Who broadened my horizons.  Thanks for forcing me to watch every monster and hero movie ever made.

Scott - who tolerated all the books I read to him.  Thanks for telling me in May of 1977 that there was a movie I just had to go see - Star Wars

Rebecca Moesta

and Laura - for never fighting with me, always understanding (just kidding), and providing a wealth of experiences for me to draw upon in my writing

JACEN and JAINA

When the Empire died, they were born - a new hope for a New Republic. The young twins of Han Solo and Princess Leia are now fourteen, and enrolled at Luke Skywalker's Jedi academy on Yavin 4. Together with friends both old and new, the future heroes of an already legendary saga begin their training.

STAR
YOUNG JEDI KNIGHTS
WARS

The Dark Jedi Brakiss - the student Luke Skywalker expelled from his academy - has learned much since he left. Enough to master the dark side of the Force.  And enough to establish his own school for training Jedi - the Shadow Academy

But now Brakiss has an even greater task.  Not only must he create a sinister legion of Dark Jedi to serve the Empire, he must undertake a challenge not even Darth Vader and the Emperor could meet: Kidnap the heirs of the Skywalker bloodline, and turn them to the dark side of the Force.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
