About the book: 2005 / More than twenty years have passed since the fall of the Empire. The peaceful times were short-lived. Hordes of ruthless Yuuzhan Vong invaders - aliens from another galaxy - are invading the New Republic. One after another, the worlds of the Outer Territories surrender under the onslaught of the enemy. And now, when the people of the Republic are faced with the need to unite in the face of danger, a split is emerging in their ranks. And the reason is largely the Jedi: they are expected to perform a miracle, but they are unable to do anything to oppose the invaders, who are immune to the Great Power. And there is confusion among the Jedi themselves: some of them, dissatisfied with the policies of Luke Skywalker, are ready to break away from the Order and act at their own discretion. If the Galaxy does not find political unity, only disaster can await it in the future. Moreover, the Yuuzhan Vong have already chosen a new target for attack - the peaceful and prosperous planet Ithor. General of the New Republic Wedge Antilles and Grand Admiral of the Empire Gilad Pellaeon, Luke Skywalker and the Yuuzhan Vong Shedao Shai, Senator Borsk Fey'lya and pilot Corran Horn, The Solo Twins and the Elegos A'Kla Envoy in the Dark Tide of the Star Wars Universe's Intergalactic Invasion!
