STAR WARS
Legacy of the Force: Revelation
Karen Traviss
February 26, 2008
In his new mantle as Sith Lord, Jacen Solo's dark powers reach a peak as he continues to crush opposition across the warring galaxy and bring his dream of a new order closer to fruition. But those who once fought at his side now turn against him, and as his unexpected enemies rally to the Confederation, Ben Skywalker discovers the full and terrible truth of how his mother died.
That's the Amazon synopsis; interestingly, DR doesn't seem to have released anything more significant than that. I can't find any back-cover blurb. However, the book is coming out in a month and it's time to discuss!

All Right:
The LOTF (Legacy of the Fett) trilogy comes to an end with Revelation.

Any one else think this is going to be the empire strikes back of the series?

Could be but I'd be suprised if Caedus didn't get at least one big victory under his belt before the end of the series

I would be surprised if he would get even a small victory. More likely he will suffer a big defeat at the end of Revelation that sets the stage for the endgame in Invincible.

Tiny, tiny blurb from Random House's catalog:
The eighth installment in the new
multi-volume Star Wars series Legacy
of the Force—starring Luke, Han, Leia,
and the other New Jedi Order heroes
—finds the tide turning against brutal
new Sith Lord Jacen Solo.
Another tiny, tiny blurb from Chapters:
In this eighth installment of the Legacy of the Force series, Jacen Solo is approaching the height of his dark powers. And no one--not even the Solos and the Skywalkers--knows if anything can stop this brutal new Sith Lord before his plan to save the galaxy ends up destroying it.

In all seriousness, though, I am looking forward to the conclusion of the Fett story arc.

Finding proof isn't the same as people actually listening to him. 
Ben: Hey, dad, I found this video recording of Jacen killing mom!
Luke: Ben, the dark side lies, we cannot be sure this recording is accurate.
I'll believe it when I see it. I'm seriously getting to the stage where I feel as if it won't be surprising if even when LOTF is over and Jacen is dead they still haven't worked it out.

Ya know, Ben could help his case a LOT if he told someone he saw Jacen and Lumiya talking.
Oh wait, that would actually make SENSE! 
This series ticks me right off.

I think this book will set everyone (bar Tahiri) against Jacen considering him a write-off with Jacen falling back on some kind of counter offensive. No more secrets now, right? Allana's heritage is known and now Mara's killer (Nelani, welcome to a one line explanation about your death next book).
Something has to keep the plot going and I think Jacen will use what's left of his powerbase and try something decisive.

I suspect this book will feature Niathal and her GA loyalists splitting away from Jacen and his minions, which would partially explain the space battle on the cover.

It fine as long as the "training" is not sexual at all?
