Publisher Description
After the thrilling events of The High Republic: Convergence, the Jedi race to confront the Path of the Open Hand and end the Forever War.
After five years of conflict, the planets Eiram and E’ronoh are on the cusp of real peace. But when news breaks of a disaster at the treaty signing on Jedha, violence reignites on the beleaguered worlds. Together, the royal heirs of both planets—Phan-tu Zenn and Xiri A’lbaran—working alongside the Jedi, have uncovered evidence that the conflict is being orchestrated by outside forces, and all signs point to the mysterious Path of the Open Hand, whom the Jedi also suspect of causing the disaster on Jedha.
With time—and answers—in short supply, the Jedi must divide their focus between helping quell the renewed violence on Eiram and E’ronoh and investigating the Path. Among them is Gella Nattai, who turns to the one person she believes can unravel the mystery but the last person she wants to trust: Axel Greylark. The chancellor’s son, imprisoned for his crimes, has always sought to unburden himself of the weight of his family name. Will he reconcile with the Jedi and aid in their quest for justice and peace, or embrace the Path’s promise of true freedom?
As all roads lead to Dalna, Gella and her allies prepare to take on a foe unlike any they’ve ever faced. And it will take all of their trust in the Force, and in one another, to survive.

Fills in some of the blanks in the main story
Good addition to the High Republic series. It fills in some of the background for the nameless.
For the mother!
Great character building. All of these new characters I feel like I am finally getting to know.
Thrilling
This may not have been the story everyone wanted, but I believe this is the story we need at this time. Starwars has always been about the fringe, politics and diversity. The culture war has gotten toxic and I have backed away. Honestly this is a refreshing story and the nice part is this feels genuine. It has hints of the old republic and a glimpse of the skywalker saga. It is definitely a great tale. I just wish the order of the novels made more sense. It’s very hard to keep up with.
