I'm hoping that the Fett plotline gets tied up, so Invincible can concentrate more on Jacen and the main plotline. Anyhow, we know how much Traviss likes Mandalorians, so in all likelihood we'll see the end of them here.
Revelations: Jacen is a Sith! And Allana's father! He killed Mara! I hope that's what we'll see- setting up for Invincible as action-filled and lots of battles.
However it seems like LOTF in general has had a lot of loose ends and has a lot to wrap up in only two books. It moved very fast, but now we're faced with the problem of so much to do and only two books left.
I'd honestly rather see more of Jacen as a tragic hero figure, becoming more evil through the misguided ways of the Sith, allowed to be a raving lunatic only in his occasional temper fits.
I already ordered the book on Amazon. Does anyone know if they ship exactly on the release date, a little before, or a little after?

I suspect Niathal will attempt a coup against Solo, who will then kill her, and declare himself Emperor, or sole Chief of State, or something. Jacen will then score a victory against the Confederation, nearly destroying it. I hope Traviss writes Jacen like in Sacrifice, and not as the raving lunatic Allston and Denning turned him into.
Jacen is a raving lunatic.
Well...
I just wrote a long counter-essay, and then ended up agreeing.
Yes, he is a raving lunatic, and it was Vergere who broke him, and no matter how I argue it, he was destined to go insane. However, I argue it is in-fact logical insanity. I could justify everything Jacen does from TUF onwards, but it's a very long essay.

They already know that Jacen is Allana's father.
Revelations will be Jacen as a sith lord and hopefully something about Vergere.
The previews mentioned in Fury are confusing, since they give the impression they already know Jacen is a sith lord. So, the revelation has to happen pretty early in the book, setting up a larger revelation later.

There's no indication that Han or Leia told anyone, even Luke. They could've blabbed it out the universe, they could've seeked confirmation from Tenel Ka and left the matter at rest, they could've only told Luke.

If they don't tell Luke, that will show that the series is getting absurd. They don't have to blab it, and probably wouldn't since Allana would be in more danger. But, telling Luke and Tenel Ka would be minimal. Sad to say, but this would give Luke hope that Jacen could be brought back from the dark side - because he would see the parallel with his own father, setting up another Skywalker-Solo argument and prolonging the book.

Nearly anything can be justified. All one has to do is rearrange their priorities.

Where is this essay, Sinre? I'd love to read it.
And I do agree, that Jacen is insane but it's easy to see what happened and how he got there.

They are not going to tell Luke. In lotF, people like Han and Leia aren't that smart. I mean, Ben tried to Leia that Jacen might've killed Mara. Remember her intelligent response  .

Ah, yes, be prepared for another episode of the Spectacularly Stupid Skywalkers. 
Leia: Luke, meet Allana, she's Jacen's daughter.
Luke: I demand proof!
Leia: But she's right here Luke. She's the one who told us.
Luke: Lies! Jacen must have mind rubbed her to trick us into believing he can be saved!
Leia: But Luke...
Luke: I know! She must be Lumiya's daughter Brisha come to decieve us!
Leia: Luke...
Luke: Unless there is wedding night footage I shall not believe more of Jacen's lies!
Don't pretend you'd be surprised if it happened.

I can actually picture this happening. Also this:
Ben: Everyone! I have proof that Jacen killed my mom.
Luke and Leia: Sure, Ben.
Ben: But look. Look at the evidence.
Leia: Ben, you do know that it's probably false evidence that was planted by Alema to throw us all off. We're not that stupid.
Ben:
