Preface
''Welcome, my friend, to a galaxy far, far away. Enter the realm of Jedi and bounty hunters, soldiers and droids, rulers and beggars, alien and human. From to Stackpole’s Corellians to Traviss's Mandalorians, come to a universe with the exotica of Zahn, the wit of Allston, the grimness of Stover, the daring of Ostrander, the imagery of Luceno, the detail of Wallace, and most importantly, the vision of George Lucas, to whom we owe it all. And if you listen close enough, you’ll hear the sweet sounds of John Williams’ score in the background. Welcome to Star Wars.''

''Selu Kraen, slowed by the kick to his spine that had sent a shocking pain up and down his back and threatened to stop his legs, hurried down the hall as fast as he could manage, but realized he would never stop the other Mistryl before she burned down his parents and Sarth, too. He saw the datapad thrown by his father sail by her head and the Mistryl dodge and turn to aim at his father. His Stokhli spray stick’s net wouldn’t reach the Mistryl in time to stop her from firing. There was only one option left, and it depended on his control of the Force. Plo Koon had taught him that injury and fear could weaken one’s control, and Selu was out of practice. It was a slim chance, but it was the only one his family had. Reaching deeply into the Force, pushing his fear and worry and all his emotion aside to achieve the calm state of mind needed for control of the invisible energy field, he focused on a familiar object within the satchel and pulled on it.''
