Journey to the embattled Occlusion Zone in this action-packed adventure set hundreds of years before the Skywalker saga! It's a dark and dangerous time for the galaxy in which communication has been rendered nearly impossible in Nihil-controlled space as the nefarious pirates continue to threaten the Republic's very existence.

Hopeful Jedi younglings will have to work together to overcome their fears in order to survive--and help save the galaxy.
