Publisher Description
This essential Star Wars Legends novel is the first in a trilogy chronicling the rise of the fearsome Sith lord Darth Bane.
“A solid space adventure [that] charts the evolution of an antihero almost as chilling as Darth Vader.”—Publishers Weekly
On the run from vengeful Republic forces, Dessel, a cortosis miner, vanishes into the ranks of the Sith army and ships out to join the bloody war against the Republic and its Jedi champions. There Dessel’s brutality, cunning, and exceptional command of the Force swiftly win him renown as a warrior. But in the eyes of his watchful masters, a far greater destiny awaits him.
As an acolyte in the Sith academy, studying the secrets and skills of the dark side, Dessel embraces his new identity: Bane. But the true test is yet to come. In order to gain acceptance into the Brotherhood of Darkness, he must defy the most sacred traditions and reject all he has been taught. It is a trial by fire in which he must surrender fully to the dark side—and forge from the ashes a new era of absolute power.
Customer Reviews
Perfection
This is just great storytelling from start to finish. The narrator does an incredible job adding nuance to each character and never overdoes it. Everything is just perfect, and I have nothing but praise for this beautiful book. Bane is a wonderfully complex, often relatable, and progressively more terrifying character. This book went by way too quickly, and I’m heading directly to Book 2: Rule of Two!
Big screen worthy!
This and the sequel rule of 2, are the greatest stories in star wars! Unfortunately we’ll never see this on big screen as it is property of disney… i smell a rat(any thing that big cant be a mouse)… at any rate a fine trilogy. With the first two a must have for any star wars fans.
Great beginning!!
Great place to begin if you’re wanting to get into Star Wars books!
