For me Dark Horse was doing wonderful thing with the Star Wars universe. They were constantly working on expanding the universe and adding new elements - be it in the Clone Wars period, before it, during the ancient times of Sith vs Old Republic or even before that during the mysterious years when Jedi order was forged.

Some of these were great, some were so-so but they did not fear to tell the different story to expand it and build on it. This is something sorely missed in latest SW trilogy - it was good but for all means and purposes it was rehashing of already known stories.

Legacy was a precious Dark Horse setting for the SW - it is almost two centuries after the Emperor was defeated, New Republic is still standing even after encounters with creatures like Yuuzhan Vong, Imperial Remnant (Thrawn's domain) has evolved into [benevolent] Empire with Baron Fel at its head. It seems all is OK when suddenly Sith come back and manage to stir the pot one more time and throw everything into chaos thus causing new galactic war that will, at the end, see Sith order brought down [yet] again by [very troubled] heir of the Skywalker.

And this is where we start - Alliance (remnant of the New Republic), Jedi and Fel's Empire are governing as a Triumvirate. Sith are thought to be extinct but by very accident they show their ugly mug again when Imperial Knight is attacked and imprisoned on a mysterious planet while Sith infiltrate the very heart of the Triumvirate's projects - establishment of the communication array to connect worlds left in isolation after the war.

And in all of that we have Ania Solo, heir of the Han and Lea Solo, stumble upon the schemes of the impostor .... and fun begins.

Excellent story with great characters and setting.

Highly recommended to all fans of Star Wars and epic heroic SF space opera in general. ( )
