The villains of <i>Star Wars</i> are as much fun as the good guys."--New York <i>Daily News</i></b> <p/>Under Governor Wilhuff Tarkin's guidance, an ultimate weapon of unparalleled destruction--the so-called Death Star--moves ever closer to becoming a terrifying reality. Until then, insurgency remains a genuine threat. Guerrilla attacks by an elusive band of freedom fighters must be countered with swift and brutal action--a mission the Emperor entrusts to his most formidable agents: Darth Vader, the fearsome new Sith enforcer, and Tarkin, whose tactical cunning and cold-blooded efficiency will pave the way for the Empire's supremacy--and its enemies' extinction. <p/> <b>A NEW DAWN</b><br> <b>Foreword by Dave Filoni</b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>"A story with pacing and dialogue that feels like classic <i>Star Wars</i>."--<i>Nerdist</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> Ever since the Jedi were marked for death, Kanan Jarrus has devoted himself to staying alive rather than serving the Force. So when he discovers a conflict brewing between Imperial forces and desperate revolutionaries, he's not about to get caught in the crossfire. Then the brutal death of a friend forces him to choose between bowing down to fear or standing up to fight. But Jarrus won't be fighting alone. Soon he is joined by Hera Syndulla--a mysterious agent provocateur with motives of her own--in challenging the Empire for the sake of a world and its people.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Compelling . . .
