Luke Skywalker's daring mission to halt the Yuuzhan Vong's nefarious plot to overthrow the New Republic is struggling on all fronts. Time is slipping away for Han and Leia Organa Solo, who are trapped on a planet where rulers are about to yield to Yuuzhan Vong pressure to give up the Jedi rebels...

On Coruscant, Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker have made a shocking discovery that is preventing the Yuuzhan Vong from exerting complete control. But when the enemy tracks them down, Luke and Mara are thrust into a fierce battle for their lives. Suddenly, the chances of escaping appear nearly impossible. And in space, another battle rages, one that holds ominous consequences for the New Republic - and for the Jedi themselves.

Set between 25-30 years after the events in Star Wars: A New Hope, Aaron Allston's Enemy Lines II - Rebel Stand is the latest in The New Jedi Order series from Arrow. Following on from Enemy Lines I - Rebel Dream, Allston's writing has been finely tuned between books and his delivery of events are noticeably tighter.

If the powers that be at Arrow are on the ball they will quickly sign Allston up for a regular series. It is obvious that he is passionate about his subject and this enthusiasm comes across in the writing, making the book hard to put down.

Yet again, Dave Seeley has produced a stunning cover - although Han and Leia look a little young.
