The stunning sequel to Dark Tide: Onslaught -- by the New York Times bestselling author of the Star Wars X-Wing series.

The alien Yuuzhan Vong have launched an attack on the worlds of the Outer Rim. They are merciless, without regard for life -- and they stand utterly outside the Force. In the face of this impervious foe, the Jedi -- once the greatest guardians of peace in the galaxy -- have been rendered helpless... and their solidarity has begun to unravel.

While Luke struggles to keep the Jedi together, Knights Jacen Solo and Corran Horn start off on a reconnaissance mission to the planet Garqi, an occupied world. There, at last, they uncover a secret that might be used to undermine the enemy -- if only they can stay alive long enough to use it!
