"Nearly four thousand years before the birth of Luke Skywalker, the galaxy faces its greatest threat since the founding of the Republic! In a time when the Sith Empire is but a bitter memory, an ancient evil rises again, corrupting one of the Jedi's finest and igniting a war that ravages worlds. The Sith are reborn, ties of friendship and family are betrayed, and the course of the galaxy's future is forever altered" -- p. [4] of cover.
