Star Wars: A new Force•
The overthrow of the Republic is complete. The Separist forces have been smashed, and the Jedi Council nearly dominated, and the rest of the Order all but destroyed. Now absolute power rests in the iron fist of Darth Plagueis- the cunning Sith Lord better known as the Plagueis the Wise, now Darth Plagueis. But more remains to be done. Pockets of Resistance in the galaxy must be defeated and missing Jedi accounted for... and dealt with. These crucial tasks fall to Emperor Palpatine. In turn, the Dark Lord has groomed a lethal male apprentice entrusted with a top secret mission to comb the galaxy and dispatch the last of his Master's enemies, thereby punctuating the dark side's victory with the Jedi's doom.
Since childhood, Palpatine's agent Cale Lestin has know only the cold, mercenary creed of the Sith. But his future beckons with the ultimate promise, to stand beside the only father he had ever known, with the galaxy at their feet. It is a destiny he can realize only by rising to the greatest challenge of his discipleship: destroying Darth Plagueis.
The apprentice's and Padme Amidala's journeys will take them across the far reaches of the galaxy. And they will be tested as never before- by shattering revelations that strike at the very heart of all they believe in and stir within them long forgotten hopes of reclaiming their name... and changing their destiny.
