Book description
The Clone Wars have exploded across the galaxy as Republic forces and
Separatists struggle to gain the upper hand. But while the Jedi
generals work tirelessly to defeat Count Dooku and his rebels, Supreme
Chancellor Palpatine is hatching his own dark victory plans.
The Separatists have launched a sneak attack on Coruscant. Obi-Wan
Kenobi, wounded in battle, insists that Anakin Skywalker and his
rookie Padawan Ahsoka leave on a risky mission against General
Grievous. But when Senator Bail Organa reveals some explosive
intelligence that could turn the tide of war in the Republic's favor,
the Jedi Master agrees to accompany him to an obscure planet on the
Outer Rim to verify the facts. What Obi-Wan and Bail don't realize is
that they're walking into a deadly trap concocted by Palpatine. And by
the time they find out, escape may not be an option.
Inspired by the full-length animated feature film Star Wars: The
Clone Wars and the brand-new TV series, these thrilling adventures are
filled with provocative, never-before-revealed insights into the
characters of Obi-Wan, Anakin, Padme, Yoda, Count Dooku, and many
other Star Wars favourites.
Karen Miller was born in Vancouver, Canada, but was raised in Sydney,
Australia where she still lives today. She wanted to be a writer from
early childhood, but that took some time to happen. While she was
waiting she worked as a public servant, a receptionist, in the horse
industry, in local government, in publishing, in telecommunications, as
a college lecturer and ran her own science fiction/fantasy/mystery
bookshop. She fell in love with Star Wars when she saw it on the big
screen, the very first time it was released in 1977. That love affair
has lasted her whole life. So far she's written six mainstream fantasy
novels and two Stargate SG-1 tie-ins.
