Synopsis

The epic story that began with Heir to the Empire reaches its dramatic conclusion in this essential Star Wars Legends novel.

The embattled Republic reels from the attacks of Grand Admiral Thrawn, who has marshaled the remnants of the Imperial forces and driven the Rebels back with an abominable technology recovered from the Emperor's secret fortress: clone soldiers. As Thrawn mounts his final siege, Han Solo and Chewbacca struggle to form a coalition of smugglers for a last-ditch attack, while Princess Leia holds the Alliance together and prepares for the birth of her Jedi twins.

The Republic has one last hope—sending a small force into the very stronghold that houses Thrawn’s terrible cloning machines. There a final danger awaits, as the Dark Jedi C’baoth directs the battle against the Rebels and builds his strength to finish what he already started: the destruction of Luke Skywalker.

About Timothy Zahn

It is not often that you hear of someone going through several years of postgraduate education, who ends up turning a hobby into their life's, paying, productive work. Such is the unusual story of American author, Timothy Zahn, who was born in 1951, grew up in Lombard, IL and graduated with a B.S. Degree in physics from Michigan State University. He then proceeded to the University of IL where he received his M.S. Degree in 1975. After beginning his doctorate in physics, his advisor passed away, and he never did complete the studies.

Zahn had started writing as a hobby, so when his plans changed, he took his writing of science fiction to a higher level. Zahn is best known for his Thrawn Star Wars series of novels. He has also had other novels of fantasy and science fiction. There are also many works that he has penned in short story fiction.

Zahn and his wife Anna live in Bandon, Oregon and have one son, Corwin Zahn.

I am sure nobody would mind about that. However, if perfection isn’t in the equation, I think that a wise approach......more

Goodreads review by Jerry on May 03, 2023

As this sequel trilogy drew to a close, I couldn't help but think what a great flick this would have been. Timothy Zahn is an excellent writer, and this trilogy brings to the page what made the original films fabulous: action, romance, heroism, etc. If only Disney had adapted the already existing li......more

Goodreads review by Paul on September 20, 2013

This review applies to all three of the Thrawn Trilogy novels It might not be entirely fair to these books that I first started reading them expecting them to be masterpieces (touted by more than a few people I know as the very best of Star Wars EU fiction), because to be quite honest, I was more dis......more

3.5 Stars Star Wars Reading Guide [URL not allowed] This final volume is what I was waiting for while reading the first two books in the trilogy. I liked Mara Jade playing a larger role with a real sense of suspense and potential danger. This trilogy is worth reading for anyone who wants to......more
