I don't know if I'm just getting more into the series or if Watson is getting into her stride in writing it, but I think this was my favorite so far. I just enjoyed reading it more than the previous installments. Plus radical environmentalists taking down the government is just my thing.
Xánatos, el siniestro aprendiz de Qui-Gon Jinn, ha tendido una trampa a su antiguo Maestro.
Para ello ha atraído a Qui-Gon y al joven Obi-Wan Kenobi hasta Telos, su planeta natal, y los ha acusado de un crimen que no ha cometido.
La sentencia es la pena de muerte.
De repente, Qui-Gon y Obi-Wan se convierten en fugitivos en un planeta extraño. Un lugar en el que todo el mundo parece estar en su contra.
Para Xánatos, ha llegado el momento de ajustar cuentas.
