Description

There’s something out there:
a juggernaut of evil bearing down to crush the Republic—
unless one lone Jedi, shunned and reviled, can stop it.

Revan: hero, traitor, conqueror, villain, savior. A Jedi who left Coruscant to defeat Mandalorians—and returned a disciple of the dark side, bent on destroying the Republic. The Jedi Council gave Revan his life back, but the price of redemption was high. His memories have been erased. All that’s left are nightmares—and deep, abiding fear.

What exactly happened beyond the Outer Rim? Revan can’t quite remember, yet can’t entirely forget. Somehow he stumbled across a terrible secret that threatens the very existence of the Republic. With no idea what it is, or how to stop it, Revan may very well fail, for he’s never faced a more powerful and diabolic enemy. But only death can stop him from trying.

Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!

    Because of this book(and KOTOR of course) Revan is my favorite Star Wars character! Now I’m a Star Wars fan big time, and I’ve read a lot of books of this genre but this one is the best of all. I will admit the ending wasn’t as good as I had hoped for but if you play SWTOR, it all makes sense. Great book 9/10 hands down. Deeply recommend it
  • Good read.

    What a depressing ending. But the rest of the book was entertaining and got me excited to the the KOTOR ps5 remake

    This was a very suspenseful and compelling read. I liked most of the story-line, but the ending was a bit of a let-down. In the spirit of avoiding spoilers, I’ll just write that I wished for something more cathartic.
  • This should be a movie

    I read this a week ago and I love it. Revan is such an underrated character that comes from an underrated Star Wars game. I know the all of the other reviews are whining about the ending, but it didn’t really bother me that much. Overall, an amazing book and now I figured we absolutely NEED a movie about The Old republic and have Keanu Reeves play Revan. #LongLivetheEU

    My first Star Wars novel and I finished it in two days. I was on the edge of my seat most of my read. I can’t wait to start the next one.
