Description

Another exciting adventure from the #1 New York Times best-selling series! The darkest secrets are the hardest to bring to light.... Sylvestri Yarrow is on a streak of bad luck with no end of sight. She's been doing her best to keep the family cargo business going after her mom's death, but between mounting debt and increasing attacks by the Nihil on unsuspecting ships, Syl is in danger of losing all she has left of her mother. She heads to the galactic capital of Coruscant for help, but gets sidetracked when she's drawn into a squabble between two of the Republic's most powerful families over a patch of space on the frontier. Tangled up in familial politics is the last place Syl wants to be, but the promise of a big payoff is enough to keep her interested… Meanwhile, Jedi Knight Vernestra Rwoh has been summoned to Coruscant, but with no idea of why or by whom. She and her Padawan Imri Cantaros arrive at the capital along with Jedi Master Cohmac Vitus and his Padawan, Reath Silas—and are asked to assist with the property dispute on the frontier. But why? What is so important about an empty patch of space? The answer will lead Vernestra to a new understanding of her abilities, and take Syl back to the past…and to truths that will finally come out of the shadows. Don't miss any of the adventure and excitement of Star Wars: The High Republic! Into the Dark by Claudia Gray A Test of Courage by Justina Ireland Race to Crashpoint Tower by Daniel José Older

  • A Disappointing Sequel

    I really enjoyed the first wave of High Republic books and was extremely excited for the second wave and I especially looking forward to this book since Into the Dark was my favorite in the first wave. Unfortunately, all three books in the second wave were a huge letdown. The story was very slow and way less exciting than the first wave and this book was the worst one in the High Republic so far. There was very little action and no real payoff or climax. I was hoping the ending would at least be enjoyable as a reward for slugging through the first 90% of the book but it was just boring all the way through.
