Description

Following the eruption of the bloody Clone Wars at the battle of Geonosis, both sides remain deadlocked in a stalemate that can be broken only by elite warrior teams like Omega Squad, clone commandos with terrifying combat skills and a lethal arsenal. . . .

For Omega Squad, deployed deep behind enemy lines, it’s the same old special ops grind: sabotage, espionage, ambush, and assassination. But when Omega Squad is rushed to Coruscant, the war’s most dangerous new hotspot, the commandos discover they’re not the only ones penetrating the heart of the enemy.

A surge in Separatist attacks has been traced to a network of Sep terror cells in the Republic’s capital, masterminded by a mole in Command Headquarters. To identify and destroy a Separatist spy and terror network in a city full of civilians will require special talents and skills. Not even the leadership of Jedi generals, along with the assistance of Delta squad and a certain notorious ARC trooper, can even the odds against the Republic Commandos. And while success may not bring victory in the Clone Wars, failure means certain defeat.

Also includes the bonus story Omega Squad: Targets by Karen Traviss!

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!

    The Republic Commando series started out slow, and I can imagine it would be hard to make a video game adaptation really all that great. But with this entry, Karen Traviss is able to open up the characters into a larger and more intracate world, one that was only hinted at in the first novel. The clone's backstories are more fully fleshed out, new characters become central, and the storylines that will continue for the rest of the series are mostly all started in this book. It's a pretty good read, really probably the best of the entire series. Too bad Traviss had a huge falling out with the Star Wars execs, and now we will never see the end of the story.

    When do we get the audiobooks for Republic commando? I've been looking everywhere for a place where I can read Triple Zero and nobody has it and I don't have a Touch, Phone, or Pad. Come on Itunes WE WANT THE AUDIOBOOKS I KNOW THEY EXIST.

    An amazing look into the lives of those individuals who fight in the clone wars and are as skilled in their trade as Jedi are in the use of the force. This shows that the Jedi are not the only ones to uncover plots and secrets and forced to make hard decisions. A must read for fans of the Star Wars universe.
