Darth Krayt, the ruthless and unwavering Sith Emperor, knows that to achieve order, sometimes one must first create chaos.

With the galaxy nearly in his grasp, Krayt tires of deposed Emperor Roan Fel’s opposition of the Sith.

He decrees that this alliance of Imperials loyal to Fel must be broken. Once scattered, Krayt has little doubt his weakened opponents will surrender to his ultimate command.

To achieve this end, Krayt has devised a unique mission for a minion of atypical loyalty—Darth Kruhl—who is not only willing to kill, but ready to die.

On a seemingly unremarkable backwater planet edging ever closer to civil war, Rebel spy Wyl Tarson has an explosive dilemma.

He and his newly assembled team of agents—a squad previously deemed by the Alliance to be too deadly, too unpredictable, and too burnt-out to serve—must follow the dangerous and contradictory directions of the criminal overlord, Raze, or face exposure and execution at Imperial hands.

If that weren’t enough, an incendiary device planted deep within Wyl’s skull counts down, ticking off the last moments of his life should he try to make a break.

Given the choice between betrayal and treason, Wyl’s next move could be his last!

Rebellion—the most action-packed original-trilogy era Star Wars story this side of the Death Star!
