While
the Clone Wars wreak havoc throughout the galaxy, the situation
on the far world of Drongar is desperate, as Republic forces
engage in a fierce fight with the Separatists...
The
threatened enemy offensive begins as the Separatists employ
legions of droids into their attack. Even with reinforcements,
the flesh and blood of the Republic forces are just no match
for battle droids' durasteel. Nowhere is this point more painfully
clear than in the steaming Jasserak jungle, where the doctors
and nurses of a small med unit face an impossible situation.
As the dead and wounded start to pile up, surgeons Jos Vandar
and Kornell "Uli" Divini know that time is running out.
Even
the Jedi abilities of Padawan Barriss Offee have been stretched
to the limit. Ahead lies a test for Barriss that could very
well lead to her death - and that of countless others. For
the conflict is growing - and for this obscure mobile med
unit, there's only one resolution. Shocking, bold, unprecedented,
it's the only option Jos and his colleagues really have. The
unthinkable has become the inevitable. Whether it kills them
or not remains to be seen.
Jedi
Healer is the second release in the Medstar series
of books. This builds well on the foundation of Battle
Surgeons. For those of us who are fed up with the tedious
battles, are tiring of the Trade Federations underhand tactics,
and who just want something a little different to happen in
the Star Wars universe - Medstar is a welcome
breath of fresh air.
Thankfully
this book is written by the same authors who were responsible
for the first novel - something that is all too rare these
days. This means that this new universe can expand a little
more naturally without the fear that a new writer will take
over the reigns and try to steer the proceedings in a new
direction.
Pick
this up, give it a go - I'll guarantee you won't be able to
put it down.
