Library Edition - 1st printing. By Matthew Stover. From the depths of catastrophe, a glimmer of hope! After the capture of Coruscant, the mighty heart of the New Republic, a stunned galaxy fears that nothing can stop the Yuuzhan Vong. Still, that crushing defeat produces one small miracle: Jacen Solo is alive. Yet he can scarcely imagine himself in stranger circumstances. The young Jedi Knight is in the care of Vergere, a fascinating creature of mystery and power, her intentions hard to fathom, her cruelties rarely concealed. But this master of inscrutable arts has much to teach the young Jedi . . . for she holds the key to a new way to experience the Force, to take it to another leveldangerous, dazzling, perhaps deadly. In the wrong hands, the tremendous energies of the Force can be devastating. And there are others watching Jacen's process closely, waiting patiently for the moment when he will be ready for their own dire purposes. Now, all is in shadows. Yet whatever happens, whether Jacen's newfound mastery unleashes light or darkness, he will never be the same Jedi again. . . . Hardcover, 4-in. x 7-in., 306 pages, text only.

by Tae Lee w/Gecko Studios In the distant future, a group of elite agents are gathered for some very special missions of retrieving valuable information from the part through time travel. Since many missions take numerous years to accomplish, these agents go through an extension process, where their life spans are extended through alterations to their bodily organs. Equipped with longer life spans and other advantageous weapons, these agents must travel through time with no certainty of succeeding or ever coming back. On one such dangerous mission, many things go very wrong, and Hagun finds himself caught up in a web of deceit, betrayal, and unexpected revelations about himself, his love, and other members of the group.
