The way of the Jedi, bested by the creed of an assassin.
The war between the clone armies of the Republic and the Separatist droid forces remain locked in a stalemate, and with casualties piling up like the ending of an epic tragedy, the virtuous Jedi Council may have finally had enough of playing by the rules. As a result, volatile alliances are formed in Star Wars: Dark Disciple by Christie Golden.
In this exclusive excerpt of the audiobook edition, the Separatists are holding a celebration to honor their leader, Count Dooku, and no one wants to congratulate him more than Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Vos. Slinking their way past security and joining a wave of spectators flowing towards a city square, this unlikely pair has one thing on their mind: kill a Sith Lord and end a Clone War.
Of course, things just look a little too easy.
