Luke Skywalker stands ready to wage war across Coruscant itself. The Sith have returned to reclaim their ancient dominance over a galaxy that buried their memory. Abeloth, a dark entity beyond mortal comprehension, moves to devour all living things. Luke calls the Jedi to arms for what may be their final battle against both enemies. Jedi strike teams launch coordinated attacks against Sith operatives hidden throughout the capital world. The strikes succeed, but Abeloth proves far more dangerous than expected. Her plans threaten not just the galaxy but the Force itself. Luke fights alongside Ben, Han, Leia, Jaina, and Jag as they close in on their monstrous foe. The truth about Abeloth's nature will shake the Jedi Order to its core. This climactic battle determines whether the Sith will rule again or the Jedi will finally destroy their ancient enemies.
