VOLUME 2 OF THE JEDI ACADEMY TRILOGY

STAR WARS

DARK APPRENTICE

As the New Republic 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 - born to incredible powers and perils, as an extraordinary new Star Wars® saga unfolds...

While the New Republic struggles to decided 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 world of Admiral Ackbar.  But as the battle for a planet rages, and even greater danger emerges at Luke Skywalker's Jedi academy.  A brilliant student deleves 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.

Notes and Comments:
A co-worker loaned me this book.  It is the first Star Wars book that I have read other than the movie adaptations.  I read this in June 2005 in the hospital PICU as I staying with my son.

  • 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.
