In this gripping sequel to Star Wars- The Rising Storm, the light of the Jedi faces its darkest hour.

Time

and again, the vicious raiders known as the Nihil have sought to bring

the golden age of the High Republic to a fiery end. Time and again, the

High Republic has emerged battered and weary, but victorious thank to

its Jedi protectors-and there is no monument to their cause grander than

the Starlight Beacon.

Hanging like a jewel in the Outer Rim, the

Beacon embodies the High Republic at the apex of its aspirations- a hub

of culture and knowledge, a bright torch against the darkness of the

unknown, and an extended hand of welcome to the furthest reaches of the

galaxy. As survivors and refugees flee the Nihil's attacks, the Beacon

and its crew stand ready to shelter and heal.

The grateful

Knights and Padawans of the Jedi Order stationed there finally have a

chance to recover-from the pain of their injuries and the grief of their

losses. But the storm they thought had passed still rages; they are

simply caught in its eye. Marchion Ro, the true mastermind of the Nihil,

is preparing his most daring attack yet-one designed to snuff out the

light of the Jedi.
