Product Description |
| Don't miss Star Wars: Lost Tribe of The Sith: Paragon a FREE original e-book short story, the third in a series that reveals the untold story of the Fate of the Jedi's forgotten Sith castaways, their battle to survive, and their quest to re-conquer the galaxy! Paragon includes an exclusive excerpt from Star Wars: Fate of the Jedi: Backlash (Del Rey Hardcover, available March 9th) and offers a unique look into the backstory of events that have begun to unfold in the Fate of the Jedi series. Darkness VisibleThe ruthless cunning of the Sith Order has served the shipwrecked crew of the Omen well on the alien planet Kesh. Subjugating the superstitious Keshiri race by posing as its fabled overlords has ensured the Sith's survival-while they struggle in secret to return to the stars. But after fifteen years on their adopted world, some among the lost tribe have grown restless and fearful that assimilation will consume their Sith heritage. Now, as rival factions begin to appear, a shocking disaster throws into doubt the Sith's future on Kesh. In the distant city of Tetsubal, the entire native populace is suddenly wiped out by a grisly plague of unknown origin. With terrifying speed, more cities succumb to the mysterious contagion. Only the Sith remain unharmed-so far. And as Sith commander Yaru Korsin grapples with the looming loss of the paradise he rules and the race his people have come to depend upon, he must confront the dark possibility that the catastrophe may not be cruel fate but insidious sabotage. |

 Another Fun Installment |
| Review Date: February 10, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Trudy M. Haley, New Orleans, Louisiana |
Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith #3: Paragon is the third short story installment of the Lost Tribe series by John Jackson Miller. The series follows a group of Sith in the time of Naga Sadow who crash-landed on the planet of Kesh.
Miller's strength has always been in his characters, whose attitudes and beliefs are seamlessly woven throughout the narration--beliefs that the reader may take to be fact. The result is a wonderful installment-ending twist that will leave you wanting for more.
A must-read for any Star Wars fan. |
Things are not as they appear on the planet Kesh

In the latest Star War series, Fate of the Jedi, Luke Skywalker and team battle a whole civilization of Sith whose ancestors were marooned on the planet Kesh 5000 years earlier. Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith tells the back-story of those who became separated from the rest of the Sith before the time of Darth Bane (the Sith Lord that instituted the "Rule of the Two").
This installment, Paragon, takes place 15 years after the a Sith ship crashes onto the planet Kesh. It's local inhabitants embrace the Sith as deity and the Sith take control of the planet. This short story ends with a surprising twist that gives us some clues that it's not going be be as easy as it seems to keep that control.
I find the characters well fleshed-out and the idea of an entire Sith culture fascinating. Each story in the Lost Tribe of the Sith precedes a new installment in the "Star Wars: Fate of the Jedi" series and ends with a preview of the next book, this time it is "Backlash" by Aaron Allston due to come out next month. I have to say that although I have been following both series I am enjoying Lost Tribe more than the full Fate of the Jedi stories. It could be because the characters are new to me and the concept is unique, or it could be that they are better written and more creative (and, let's be honest, free). Either way I'm really looking forward to the next one! |

| Great read, better then the first two. In most of the Star Wars books the sith are just glanced over (if talked about at all), I like getting to know them better. Kind of like getting to know the stormtroopers better in the Star Wars Republic Commando books. |
Great line continued

| I, like may posters, find this exploration of the sith fascinating. It remindes me of the Timnothy Zahn conquerer's series where one of the books focused solely on the 'other side.' |
Another fun, short read

| I thought Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith #3: Paragon was as good as Star Wars: Lost Tribe of the Sith #2: Skyborn. A short, entertaining read about the new culture the sith have built on this unknown planet. The native species reactions to this new culture are hinted at as well. A good short story about this new world that they are setting up. |
