âI have sensed a disturbance in the Force.â
Ominous words under any circumstances, but all the more so when uttered by Emperor Palpatine. On Batuu, at the edge of the Unknown Regions, a threat to the Empire is taking rootâits existence little more than a glimmer, its consequences as yet unknowable. But it is troubling enough to the Imperial leader to warrant investigation by his most powerful agents: ruthless enforcer Lord Vader and brilliant strategist Grand Admiral Thrawn. Fierce rivals for the Emperorâs favor and outspoken adversaries on Imperial affairsâincluding the Death Star projectâthe formidable pair seem unlikely partners for such a crucial mission. But the Emperor knows itâs not the first time Vader and Thrawn have joined forces. And thereâs more behind his royal command than either man suspects.
In what seems like a lifetime ago, General Anakin Skywalker of the Galactic Republic and Commander Mitthârawânuruodo, officer of the Chiss Ascendancy, crossed paths for the first time. One on a desperate personal quest, the other with motives unknown . . . and undisclosed. But facing a gauntlet of dangers on a far-flung world, they forged an uneasy allianceâneither remotely aware of what his future held in store.
Now, thrust together once more, they find themselves bound again for the planet where they once fought side by side. There they will be doubly challengedâby a test of their allegiance to the Empire . . . and by an enemy that threatens even their combined might.
