Summary:
  
The Clone Wars continue to spread, engulfing ever more systems in strife. From the city-planet of Coruscant, to space-station asteroids, to untamed worlds on the edge of the galaxy, the Jedi find themselves...
On the Fields of Battle
  • Mace Windu leads an elite strike force against an army of trained killers in a demonstration of Jedi power and resolve...
  • Aayla Secura must confront her former Master in an effort to retrieve the plans for a weapon that has already destroyed one world...
  • Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker must join forces with a renegade Jedi to prevent a fleet of warships from falling into the hands of the enemy...
Wherever the conflict leads the Jedi, their greatest challenge is to remain true to their teachings and to the ways of the Force!


Review:
Good:  I liked this one. Returning us finally to the story of renegade Jedi, Quinlan Vos. Whose side is he on? I don't know... Hard to tell half the time. It was good to see him and Obi-Wan reunite, working together again for the first time since the Stark Hyperspace War. And the first part with Mace Windu, Kit Fisto, Saesee Tiin and Agen Kolar. Good to see them in action together... especially after their rather sad performance against Palpatine in Revenge of the Sith.

Bad:   A very good book. A few problems with artwork, characters looking different in different stories. But that's because of different artists drawing the same characters. I just wish they could sit down and get a template of how major characters are supposed to look and stick closer to that.
