Synopsis

As the bloodied and weary galaxy faces battle once more, the Jedi take on the formidable task of bringing the last of the Empire into the light. . . .

From the ashes of the New Republic—torn to shreds by the savage Yuuzhan Vong forces—the newly formed Galactic Alliance has risen, determined to bring peace to the entire galaxy. But first the Yuuzhan Vong must be contained once and for all. And so Luke Skywalker seeks a world long lost to legend: Zonama Sekot, a sentient planet believed to have repelled an invasion by the Yuuzhan Vong decades ago. Deciphering the enigmatic secrets of Zonama Sekot just might turn the tides of a relentless war.

Aboard the Jade Shadow, Luke, his wife Mara, Jacen Solo, and other Jedi head off into the Unknown Regions, where rumors and clues suggest Zonama Sekot might be found. Yet the mission has barely begun when the searchers stumble into a horrific battle. The Imperial Remnant, in retreat from the mighty Yuuzhan Vong, is about to be destroyed. It would seem those aboard the Jade Shadow have little choice but to leave the Empire to its fate. But these are no ordinary space travelers, they are Jedi. . . .

Goodreads review by Scott on February 17, 2016

"Remnant" by Sean Williams and Shane Dix is the fifteenth book in the New Jedi Order series and the first book of the Force Heretic trilogy. It's definitely not the best of the series, but it's definitely not the worst, either. The Yuuzhan Vong, whose forces were seriously depleted at the Battle of E......more

Goodreads review by Steve on September 15, 2024

It was a pretty good one. Interesting first book of a trilogy that has enough going for it to stand alone, but with enough buildup for the next ones. I liked the focus on Tahiri and I think she is one of the most interesting characters to come out of this series, hoping for more of it. Just overall......more

This one was decent but probably one of my least favorite NJO books so far. As far as good stuff, there were some bits here I enjoyed. I liked Leia and Tahiri’s visit to Galantos, and some of the stuff going on with Nom Anor. I also absolutely loved the ending of the book—basically everything in Part......more
