    About Vision of the Future: Star Wars Legends (The Hand of Thrawn)

    Hugo Award-winning author Timothy Zahn brings his epic two-volume series The Hand of Thrawn to an explosive conclusion with a discovery that rocks the New Republic to its foundations–and threatens to resurrect the Empire.

    The Empire’s master plan is under way. The New Republic is on the verge of civil war and the rumor that the legendary Admiral Thrawn has returned from the dead is rallying the Imperial forces. Now Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, and their allies face the challenge of their lives. They must infiltrate a hidden fortress filled with Imperial fanatics, rendezvous with a double-dealing Imperial commander, and journey into enemy territory to learn the identity of those responsible for an act of unthinkable genocide. But most important of all is the truth about Thrawn. In his hands–alive or dead–rests the fate of the New Republic.

    Praise

    Praise for the Star Wars(r) novels of Timothy Zahn:

    Specter Of The Past:

    –Booklist

    Heir To The Empire:

    "Moves with a speed-of-light pace that captures the spirit of the movie trilogy so well, you can almost hear John Williams’s soundtrack."
    –The Providence Sunday Journal

    Dark Force Rising:

    "Zahn has perfectly captured the pace and flavor of the Star Wars movies. This is space opera at its best."
    –The Sunday Oklahoman

    The Last Command:

    "Filled with characteristic Star Wars technology and cosmic battles…the detail and plot development far exceed what are possible in a two-hour movie."
    –The Indianapolis Star
