Publisher's summary

An ancient Sith ship hurtles into the future carrying a lethal cargo that could forever destroy Luke Skywalker's hopes for peace.

The Civil War is almost over when Jedi Knight Jaden Korr experiences a Force vision so intense he must act. Enlisting two salvage jocks and their ship, Jaden sets out into space. Someone -- or something -- appears to be in distress.

But what Jaden and his crew find confounds them. A five-thousand-year-old dreadnaught -- bringing with it a full force of Sith and one lone Jedi -- has inadvertently catapulted eons from the past into the present. The ship's weapons may not be cutting-edge, but its cargo, a special ore that makes those who use the dark side nearly invincible, is unsurpassed. The ancient Jedi on board is determined to destroy the Sith. But for Jaden, even more is at stake: for his vision has led him to uncover a potentially indestructible threat to everything the Jedi Order stands for.

I loved this book. I thought Jaden was written pretty good compared to how he seemed to me in the game. I kinda liked the way Relin ended up. I think all that happened to him kinda warranted his actions.

I also liked the way the hyperspace time travel was explained. Kemp is a good writer and props for the background work. Look forward to more books from Kemp.

I think this one one of the best Star Wars books I've read in a while. Very reminiscent of classic Star Wars, I give it 9.5 out of 10.

Thought the whole time travel thing could have come off as ridiculous but it didn't. Paul S Kemp's writing style is great, as his action scenes are really well written.
