A mysterious former Sith wanders the galaxy in this stunning “Star Wars” tale, an original novel inspired by the world of The Duel from the Star Wars Visions animated anthology. Little is known about him, including his name, for he never speaks of his past, nor his regrets. As the galaxy’s perpetual cycle of violence continues to interrupt his self-imposed exile, and he is forced to duel an enigmatic bandit claiming the title of Sith, it becomes clear that no amount of wandering will ever let him outpace the specters of his former life.

Twenty years have passed since the Sith and their endless rivalries were eradicated and replaced with the Rule of Two. Darth Bane now reigns alongside his young acolyte, Zannah, who must study and train in the dark side of the Force until the time comes to strike down her master and claim the mantle for herself. But what if an apprentice fails to raise their blade in combat? The future of the dark side hangs in the balance in the stunning conclusion to the Darth Bane series.

When the Jedi Order falls, an Inquisitor rises … As an Inquisitor, Iskat finds the freedom she has always wanted: to question, to want. And with each strike of her red blade, Iskat moves closer to claiming her new destiny in the Force — whatever the cost.
