[edit] Publisher's Summary

During this savage civil war, all efforts to end Jacen Solo’s tyranny of the Galactic Alliance have failed. Now, with Jacen approaching the height of his dark powers, no one–not even the Solos and the Skywalkers–knows if anything can stop the Sith Lord before his plan to save the galaxy ends up destroying it.

Jacen Solo’s shadow of influence has threatened many, especially those closest to him. Jaina Solo is determined to bring her brother in, but in order to track him down, she must first learn unfamiliar skills from a man she finds ruthless, repellent, and dangerous. Meanwhile, Ben Skywalker, still haunted by suspicions that Jacen killed his mother, Mara, decides he must know the truth, even if it costs him his life. And as Luke Skywalker contemplates once unthinkable strategies to dethrone his nephew, the hour of reckoning for those on both sides draws near. The galaxy becomes a battlefield where all must face their true nature and darkest secrets, and live–or die–with the consequences.

[edit] Amazon.co.uk Synopsis

In his new mantle as Sith Lord, Jacen Solo's dark powers reach a peak as he continues to crush opposition across the warring galaxy and bring his dream of a new order closer to fruition. But those who once fought at his side now turn against him, and as his unexpected enemies rally to the Confederation, Ben Skywalker discovers the full and terrible truth of how his mother died.[1]

[edit] Behind the scenes

  • Caedus's new Sith lightsaber, as depicted on the cover, resembles that of his grandfather, Darth Vader. Though depicted on the cover, Caedus does not actually wield this lightsaber in the book.
  • On February 4th, Sue Rostoni released a small line from Revelation, when someone says "It was always sobering to be a spectator at your own funeral." The character speaking is revealed as Gilad Pellaeon.
  • An extract from Revelation was published prior to its release with Fury. This contained a continuity error, Qui-Gon Jinn killed a Sith on Naboo, a reference to the death of Darth Maul in Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace, who was actually killed by Obi-Wan Kenobi. This error was fixed when Revelation was released and the words Qui-Gon Jinn were switched for Kenobi.
  • On the bottom of page 41, Coruscant is misspelled as Corsucant.
  • On the bottom of page 270, Pellaeon is misspelled as Pellaon
  • Pellaeon fantasized about the furor Daala might create, should she decide to become the "first" female Moff, contradicting earlier mentions and appearances of Crowal, a female Moff from Valc VII who supported Pellaeon during the Yuuzhan Vong War.
