We're only into March of this new year and already fantasy novelist Tim Lebbon is having a great time. Not only did he bring back warrant officer Ellen Ripley back to the ALIEN universe with great acclaim and gusto, but he's now back in the land of Sith and Jedi for his all new stand-alone hardcover tie-in to the promising and action-fuelled DAWN OF THE JEDI historical action series: Into the Void, out 13th March from CENTURY PUBLISHING.
Here's the enticing cover blurb:
On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order
was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the
mysteries and methods of the Force—and found her calling as one of its most
powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her
parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the
Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy.
Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping
order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a
matter of utmost urgency. The leader of a fanatical cult, obsessed with
traveling beyond the reaches of known space, is bent on opening a cosmic
gateway using dreaded dark matter as the key—risking a cataclysmic reaction
that will consume the entire star system. But more shocking to Lanoree than
even the prospect of total galactic annihilation, is the decision of her Je’daii
Masters to task her with the mission of preventing it. Until a staggering
revelation makes clear why she was chosen: The brilliant, dangerous madman she
must track down and stop at any cost is the brother whose death she has long
grieved—and whose life she must now fear.
Includes a special, full-color excerpt
