[edit] Publisher's summary

While the Clone Wars wreak havoc throughout the galaxy, the situation on the far world of Drongar is desperate, as Republic forces engage in a fierce fight with the Separatists….

The threatened enemy offensive begins as the Separatists employ legions of droids in their attack. Even with reinforcements, the flesh and blood of the Republic forces are just no match for battle droids' durasteel. Nowhere is this point more painfully clear than in the steaming Jasserak jungle, where the doctors and nurses of a small med unit face an impossible situation. As the dead and wounded start to pile up, surgeons Jos Vondar and Kornell "Uli" Divini know that time is running out.

Even the Jedi abilities of Padawan Barriss Offee have been stretched to the limit. Ahead lies a test for Barriss that could very well lead to her death—and that of countless others. The conflict is growing—and for this obscure mobile med unit, there's only one resolution. Shocking, bold, unprecedented, it's the only option Jos and his colleagues really have. The unthinkable has become the inevitable. Whether it kills them or not remains to be seen.

[edit] Behind the scenes

  • The authors seem to have an affinity for British Sci-Fi, as, in Chapter 2, Den Dhur orders a 'Sonic Servodriver', a play on words both with the cocktail 'Screwdriver', and the British Sci-Fi character Dr. Who's tool of choice, the 'Sonic Screwdriver'.
  • Page 63 features a nod to the late Douglas Adams, author of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series; Den Dhur starts to order a Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster, an alcoholic beverage featured throughout the series, only to be interrupted by Tolk le Trene. Also, earlier he also orders "that Old Janx Spirit", another drink from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
  • This was the first appearance of the Venator-class Star Destroyer, which was frequently featured in Episode III as a bridge between the Acclamator I- and Imperator-class Star Destroyers, the latter being the principal Star Destroyer from the original films.
