The Jedi move one step closer to saving the embattled galaxy- only to confront a formidable wall of resistance. The harrowing search for Zonama Sekot is finally over for Luke Skywalker, Jacen Solo, and the others aboard the Jade Shadow. But joy turns to alarm when the living planet sends a defiant message: it refuses to follow them back to a galaxy full of war, exploitation, and misery. While Luke works feverishly to persuade the elusive planet to reconsider, the Yuuzhan Vong launches a full-scale attack aimed at the heart of the new alliance. Sent to defend a major communications base, Han and Leia find themselves hopelessly outnumbered. Reinforcements are just too far away to help before everything is destroyed. So the courageous pair must now fight an unrelenting battle against staggering odds. Whether they actually survive is another matter. . . .
Fast moving action oriented fun read. As usual for Sean great job of character development and creative story development

Good Book
I couldn't put it down!

I'm a fan of the NJO series and this book was still better than I could have expected. Unlike some other reviewers, I an fascinated with the Solo children and the younger Jedi knights. Han and Leia are still great (don't get me wrong) but it's nice to read about so many different characters, romantic storylines and adventures. This series is what made me a Star Wars fanatic. This book is a must buy as long as you've read the preceding novels. Just a note: the cover art doesn't actually apply to any part of the book. I'm not sure why they chose to illustrate something that never happens.
the best of them

This book was the best of the Force Heretic books for many reasons. 1)You get to find out what happans to Tahiri 2)An old frind comes back 3)Tahiri realise that see is not feeling guilty about living when Anikin has died, but, that she has moved on in her life without him 4)Jacan,Luke,Mara,Danni,etc. find Zonama Sekot 5)Jaina gets traped inside Tahiri's mind 6)Jag says "I love you Jaina"Great book,can't wait till The next two and the trilogy after that.
Fantastic turnaround

I'm highly impressed. I didn't like FH1 or esp. #2 very much, but this one is incredible. The characters all act like themselves, events happen and characters act for a reason, space battles and combat are well described, and the plot moves fluidly. I esp. liked the changing viewpoints, particularly where Sekot is asking Jacen and Luke the same question and you get to see their same-meaning-yet-different answers. That was cool. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has read part of the NJO before now; you won't be dissappointed.
