Description
The latest story never told in The Clone Wars television saga- A tale of trust, betrayal, love and evil starring the hugely popular ex-Sith-Jedi female bounty hunter. Asajj Ventress. When the Jedi decide to target Count Dooku-Darth Tryanus- himself, they turn to his ex-apprentice, Asajj Ventress, for help in getting close to the slippery Sith Lord. But when unexpected sparks fly between Ventress and Quinlan Vos, the unorthodox Jedi sent to work with her, the mission becomes a web of betrayal, alliances, secrets, and dark plotting that might just be the undoing of both Jedi and Sith - and everything in between!
Author Biography
Christie Golden is the New York Times bestselling author of more than thirty novels, including the Star Wars- Dark Disciple and the Star Wars- Fate of the Jedi novels Omen, Allies, and Ascension. Her media tie-in works include launching the Ravenloft line in 1991 with Vampire of the Mists, Fable- Edge of the World, more than a dozen Star Trek novels, and multiple World of Warcraft and StarCraft novels, including World of Warcraft- Thrall- Twilight Aspects and StarCraft II- Devil's Due.
ReviewsA very creditable adaptation from the well-selected for the task Miss Golden, further developing Ventress and her complex relationship with Vos, whose dark romance is a strong showcase for the author's talents but those of the series original writers (Katle Lucas, Matt Michnovetz and Dave Filoni ). With the success and overall acclaim for this novel endeavour, let's hope that we get more adaptations of unseen episodes of THE CLONE WARS Seasons Sevens and Eight for the future. We deserve them. 4 out of 5. * Star Wars Aficionado * This is a really good book, a definite page turner. A must read for any Star Wars fan - plenty of fun cameos and expansion of the universe. For those who have only seen the films this is an interesting look at how far can the good guys go to defeat the bad guys.I think this would be a good reading group book because of the many themes this novel touches upon. * Nudge-Book.com *
