The Republic is decaying and forces of discontent are threatening the collapse of the galaxy. It's a move that may reveal him as Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars and an enemy of the Empire-and endanger his true mission as protector of the galaxy's last hope. But when violence erupts between some of Tatooine's farmers and a tribe of marauding Tusken Raiders, Ben finds himself drawn into the conflict. Known to locals only as "Ben," the bearded and robed offworlder shares nothing of his past and goes through great pains to remain an outsider.


Tatooine, the harsh desert planet on the edge of civilized space, is an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A SINGLE VOLUME-TWO THRILLING NOVELS FROM THE STAR WARS EXPANDED UNIVERSE, FEATURING A YOUNG OBI-WAN KENOBI
