Synopsis

The Star Wars epic continues its dazzling space odyssey in The New Jedi Order–as Luke and Mara, Leia and Han, and others battle the mighty enemy from beyond the galactic rim.

The brutal Yuuzhan Vong are scouring the universe for Jedi to slaughter. With no help from the divided New Republic, the Jedi stand alone against their seemingly invincible foe. Han and Leia Organa Solo risk deadly consequences with their controversial tactics to bolster the Jedi resistance. After uncovering a new Yuuzhan Vong menace, Anakin and Tahiri find themselves wanted for murder by the Peace Brigade. To avoid capture, they jump into hyperspace . . . and into trouble far graver.

Hunted by the Yuuzhan Vong, wanted as criminals by the New Republic, and with unrest stirring within their own ranks, the Jedi find peril everywhere they turn. But even in the midst of despair, while the most fiercest battle of all looms on the horizon, hope arises with the birth of one very special child. . . .

Goodreads review by Jerry on June 04, 2022

Continuing the improvements to the New Jedi Order series that he made with his first entry, Greg Keyes tells another intense space opera story. I actually liked the first one better...but only by a bit. These two have to be the best in the series so far. If only they hadn't come before a Troy Dennin......more

Another solid New Jedi Order book. Probably not as great as the first in the duology, but a very good one nonetheless. I’d say I enjoyed most aspects of this book. The characters are, as usual for NJO, well done. Luke, Mara, Jacen, and Kyp were standouts. The plot was also decently interesting, and......more

Goodreads review by Scott on December 02, 2015

Greg Keyes's second book in his Edge of Victory duology, "Rebirth," suffers the same problem that many previous books in the New Jedi Order series suffer from: way too many story lines going on at once. Part of the problem is the vast---and growing---dramatis personae of the Star Wars Expanded Univer......more

Goodreads review by Steve on May 25, 2024

Another good entry in the series. Not quite as good as the previous one, but overall enjoyable. The Edge of Victory duology by Greg Keyes is easily my favorite duology so far in the series, as it actually moves the main story forward and doesn't feel like random people doing random shit, as some pre......more

Goodreads review by Lance on March 30, 2021

This entry in the New Jedi Order is a bit more difficult for me to rate and review than the others have been. One the one hand, I enjoyed it. On the other hand, it disappointed me in many ways as well. Conquest (Edge of Victory, #1) was one of my favorite books in this series thus far because of its......more
