The nineteen-year-old apprentice to Obi-Wan Kenobi is an enigma to the Jedi Council, and a challenge to his Jedi Master. Time has not dulled Anakins ambition, nor has his Jedi training tamed his independent streak.

But even as the Republic falters around them, Anakin and Padm find a connection so intense that all else begins to fall away. Anakin will lose himselfand his wayin emotions a Jedi, sworn to hold allegiance only to the Order, is forbidden to have.Based on the story by George Lucas and the screenplay by George Lucas and Jonathan Hales, this intense and revealing novel by bestselling author R. A. Salvatore sheds new light on the legend of Star Warsand skillfully illuminates one of our most beloved sagas.
