[edit] Publisher's summary
Luke Skywalker wanted to unify the Jedi Order and bring peace to the universe. Instead, his wife, Mara, lies dead at the hands of an unknown assassin, his wayward nephew Jacen has seized control of the Galactic Alliance, and the galaxy has exploded in all-out civil war.
With Luke consumed with grief, Jacen Solo works quickly to consolidate his power and jumpstart his plan to take over the Jedi. Convinced he's the only one who can save the galaxy, Jacen will do whatever it takes, even ambush his own parents.
With the Rebel confederacy driving deep into the Core to attack Coruscant and the Jedi under siege, Luke must reassert his position. Only he can lead the Jedi through this crisis, but it means solving the toughest problem Luke's ever faced. Does he fight alongside his nephew Jacen, a tyrant who's taken over the GA or does he join the rebels to smash the Galactic Alliance he helped create?

[edit] Behind the scenes
- In a discussion between Alema Rar and the Sith on Korriban, the leader of the Sith enclave made references to the collective master of the Sith. He told Alema of how the Jedi-turned-Sith Vergere had been fascinated by the master's vision of "One Sith" as opposed to keeping to the tradition of the "Rule of Two." Star Wars Legacy 18: Claws of the Dragon, Part 5 confirms that this is Darth Krayt, making this the first time that events of the Legacy comics are referenced in the novels.
