Synopsis

In this essential Star Wars Legends novel, Mace Windu must journey to his long-forgotten homeworld to confront a terrifying mystery with dire personal consequences.

The jungle planet of Haruun Kal, homeworld of the legendary Jedi Master Mace Windu, has become a battleground in the increasing hostilities between the Republic and the renegade Separatist movement. The Jedi Council has sent Depa Billaba—Mace’s former Padawan and fellow Council member—to Haruun Kal to train the local tribesmen as a guerrilla resistance force. But now the Separatists have pulled back, and Depa has not returned. The only clue to her disappearance is a cryptic recording left at the scene of a brutal massacre: a recording that hints of madness and murder, and the darkness in the jungle . . . a recording in Depa’s own voice.

Mace Windu trained Depa. Only he can find her. Only he can learn what has changed her. Only he can stop her. He will leave behind the Republic he serves, the civilization he believes in, everything but his passion for peace and his devotion to his former Padawan. And he will learn the terrible price that must be paid when keepers of the peace are forced to make war. . . .

I haven't been keeping up with the Star Wars novels lately, but I had been curious about this one. It wasn't what I expected. A page-turner to be sure, with lots of fighting and action and light-sabery goodness, but there's something much deeper going on here. Shatterpoint is set after Attack of the......more

Goodreads review by Scott on December 26, 2024

I have found that some of the best, most outstanding novels in the Star Wars Expanded Universe (SWEU) have been the few handful that went against type by ignoring the standard campy "space opera" formula for something a little more serious and "grown-up". *Aside: I always get shit for making statemen......more

Goodreads review by Katrin on June 19, 2015

I have to admit that I put this book off for a while. So far, I've been largely unimpressed by the Clone Wars era and have never given Mace Windu much thought beyond his brief, seemingly unimportant role in the movies. Now, however, I have a newfound respect for Master Windu and am inclined to beli......more

Goodreads review by Kat on April 30, 2024

Having read Stover’s Revenge of the Sith novelisation – his second contribution to the written Star Wars universe –, before I picked up Shatterpoint, I really expected this to be just as good. It wasn’t; it lacked evident emotional depth, but it’s still an action-packed novel that sheds new light on......more

This book is way better than an original novel starring Mace Windu has any right to be.......more
