Another great installment of the Young Jedi knights in the Diversity set story. Jaina, Jacen, Tenel Ka and everyone are such interesting charactors. There was a new member Lusa who was just as interesting. I also liked Raynor's crush on her. I still find the Diversity Alliance so interest that they are out to kill all of humankind. Its not a story I expected to find in Star Wars but I'm enjoying it.

I've been reading the Young Jedi Knights series from Book One and have always been looking for the next one to come out! I absolutely love how the characters have really come into their own and seem nearly real - almost like you know them! This book was not the best on I've read in the series, but it was good and I can't wait to grab the next one!

Things are getting kinda complicated. But this book is so exciting, who cares?!?! It starts off with Jaina writing a holo note to Zeek. Then an old childhood friend comes to visit Jaina and Jacen. It was reallt smart of the authors to use characters from long ago. This person tells of the Diversity Alliance to Jacen and Jaina and they race off to Mechis 3. There they encounter Raynars uncle, Tyko, who was believed to have been kidnapped by the assasinn droid I-G88. If I say much more, I'll be writing the book for you. This is a must for any STARWARS reader. RUN OUT AND BUY IT TO-DAY!

Though I had read the intire Young Jedi Knights series (except the final trilogy) several times, I was surprised to note as I started reading it once again that this was the only one so far that I remembered virtually nothing about. In it, Jacen and Jaina's old friend Lusa comes to the Jedi Academy desperatly seeking refuge from the Diversity Aliance, an all alien political movement bent on destroying all humans, that she was once a part of. Meanwhile, everyone continues to search for Bornan Thul who is desperately trying to evade capture from the Diversity Aliance and keep from them the information he is protecting, because if they get ahold of it, it could mean the end of humankind... Meanwhile, Raynar gets a crush on Lusa and it moves him to do something for his family while his father (Bornan Thul) is missing. He decides to go to Mechis 3 and take care of his uncles droid operation since he too seems to be missing. As you can probably guess, everyone goes with him and discovers a startling truth. In general, this was a worthy book to continue this fascinating saga that tells of the next generation of Star Wars heroes, though not the best in the series. For one thing I wish they would include Anakin more. He is my favorite of the Solo children (with Jaina as a close second) and it's not as it there is even a big age difference, he is only a year and 1/2 younger than Jacen and Jaina. Another thing that bothers me is that who exactly gave all the kids permision fly around the galaxy by themselves? Just because Tenel Ka has her own ship somehow gives EVERYONE the freedom to go where they please. This does not sound like something that protective parents like Han and Leia would allow. I myself am fifteen, the same age as the kids in this series, and I am not allowed to do these things. Oh well, it is just a book. Oh, and one more thing, I would not advise reading this book before the others in the series, because it will make absolutely no sense on it's own.

I hadn't read any of the Young Jedi Knights books in several years. I forgot how good they actually were, despite being for younger readers. Zekk, Rayner, Jaina, Jacen, Lowbacca, Tenal Ka. With appearances by Dengar and IG-88. It's fun and an easy read.

IG-88, who previously starred in Kevin J. Anderson's Tales of the Bounty Hunters makes his return in this book, as he hunts down the young Jedi. But can they stand against a droid killer who cannot be detected with the Force?

great book!my favorite part is when Em Teedee gets his own repulsor unit.And Zekk completes his first official bounty hunter mission.BUY IT NOW!!!

The book was good but i think it definitly could have been better. For all you Star Wars fans I do recommand this book but only because this book is basically a kind of an understanding book. I mean it helps you understand what is going on but it needs a lot more action. But they definitly get better!So don't think that all of the books are like this.

I am a real big STAR WARS fan, so I couldn't wait to read it. I was a little disappointed at the way the booked seemed so short, though. I kept wanting Raaba to become friends with the young jedi knights, it doesn't look like she will in this book though. Maybe later in the series....

This book was about BOUNTY HUNTERS!!! I love BOUNTY HUNTERS!!! The return of IG-88 was a true tribute, and it made the book a whole lot more intense. Just thinking about it gives me tingles all over. Definitely one of Anderson's and Moesta's best efforts.
