#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Grand Admiral Thrawn and Darth Vader team up against a threat to the Empire in this thrilling novel from bestselling author Timothy Zahn. n nI have sensed a disturbance in the Force. nOminous words under any circumstances, but all the more so when uttered by Emperor Palpatine. On Batuu, at the edge of the Unknown Regions, a threat to the Empire is taking root--its existence little more than a glimmer, its consequences as yet unknowable. But it is troubling enough to the Imperial leader to warrant investigation by his most powerful agents: ruthless enforcer Lord Vader and brilliant strategist Grand Admiral Thrawn. Fierce rivals for the Emperors favor and outspoken adversaries on Imperial affairs--including the Death Star project--the formidable pair seem unlikely partners for such a crucial mission. But the Emperor knows its not the first time Vader and Thrawn have joined forces. And theres more behind his royal command than either man suspects. n nIn what seems like a lifetime ago, General Anakin Skywalker of the Galactic Republic and Commander Mitthrawnuruodo, officer of the Chiss Ascendancy, crossed paths for the first time. One on a desperate personal quest, the other with motives unknown . . . and undisclosed. But facing a gauntlet of dangers on a far-flung world, they forged an uneasy alliance--neither remotely aware of what his future held in store. n nNow, thrust together once more, they find themselves bound again for the planet where they once fought side by side. There they will be doubly challenged--by a test of their allegiance to the Empire . . . and by an enemy that threatens even their combined might. n nPraise for Thrawn: Alliances n nIts a science fiction beach read in the best way, brisk and amusing, with some cool additions to the Star Wars galaxy.--Den of Geek n n Like all of Zahns novels set in a galaxy far, far away, its an essential read for anyone looking for an artistically done adventure.--CNETn
