<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> Zahn's #1 "New York Times"-bestselling sequel to "Thrawn" follows the rise of Grand Admiral Thrawn to the heights of Imperial power--and accompanies him into the past, witnessing his first encounter with the man who will one day become Darth Vader. Tall Premium Edition. Rey. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>#1 <i>NEW YORK TIMES </i>BESTSELLER </b>- <b>Grand Admiral Thrawn and Darth Vader team up against a threat to the Empire in this thrilling novel from bestselling author Timothy Zahn.</b><br><i> </i><br><i>"I have sensed a disturbance in the Force."</i> <p/>Ominous words under any circumstances, but all the more so when uttered by Emperor Palpatine. On Batuu, at the edges 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 Darth Vader and brilliant strategist Grand Admiral Thrawn. Fierce rivals for the emperor's 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 it's not the first time Vader and Thrawn have joined forces. And there's more behind his royal command than either man suspects. <p/>In what seems like a lifetime ago, General Anakin Skywalker of the Galactic Republic, and Commander Mitth'raw'nuruodo, 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 their futures held in store. <p/>Now, 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 an enemy that threatens even their combined might. <p/><b>Praise for <i>Thrawn: Alliances</i><br></b><br>"It's a science fiction beach read in the best way, brisk and amusing, with some cool additions to the Star Wars galaxy."<b>--Den of Geek</b> <p/> "Like all of Zahn's novels set in a galaxy far, far away, it's an essential read for anyone looking for an artistically done adventure."<b>--CNET</b> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "It's a science fiction beach read in the best way, brisk and amusing, with some cool additions to the Star Wars galaxy."<b>--Den of Geek</b> <p/> "Like all of Zahn's novels set in a galaxy far, far away, it's an essential read for anyone looking for an artistically done adventure."<b>--CNET</b> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <b>Timothy Zahn</b> is the author of more than forty novels, nearly ninety short stories and novellas, and four short-fiction collections.
