Summary
Hugo Award-winning author Timothy Zahn makes his triumphant return to the Star Wars(r) universe in this first of an epic new two-volume series in which the New Republic must face its most dangerous enemy yet--a dead Imperial warlord.

The Empire stands at the brink of total collapse. But they have saved their most heinous plan for last. First a plot is hatched that could destroy the New Republic in a bloodbath of genocide and civil war. Then comes the shocking news that Grand Admiral Thrawn--the most cunning and ruthless warlord in history--has apparently returned from the dead to lead the Empire to a long-prophesied victory. Facing incredible odds, Han and Leia begin a desperate race against time to prevent the New Republic from unraveling in the face of two inexplicable threats--one from within and one from without. Meanwhile, Luke teams up with Mara Jade, using the Force to track down a mysterious pirate ship with a crew of clones. Yet, perhaps most dangerous of all, are those who lurk in the shadows, orchestrating a dark plan that will turn the New Republic and the Empire into their playthings.

Loved this book by Timothy Zahn and really loved the narrator Marc Thompson — he is awesome!! Can’t believe how well he does each character’s voices. Closing your eyes (if you aren’t driving)

Awesom. Zahn has a way of making his characters so likeable. Thrawn and Mara Jade along with Talon Card have been great additions to the Star Wars universe. Disney obviously never took any note of his work. The narrator does an amazing job keeping you addicted to listening 5 out of 5 for him. Highly recommend this Duology.
