Legacy of the Force: Sacrifice

Sacrifice is the fifth book in the Legacy of the Force series. It is a hardcover by Karen Traviss. It was confirmed by the official website that Jacen Solo will receive his 'official' Sith name (Darth ...) in this book, after the name has been chosen from the Darth Who Contest. According to Sue Rostoni, Sacrifice begins "a day or two after EXILE ends and covers 30 to 40 days."

It was previously said to be due out in June 2007 (6th June according to the advertisement on page 401 of Bloodlines), and was later listed on the Random House website as being due for release on May 29, 2007.

The webpage also says that the book will be 400 pages long. The front cover features Mara Jade Skywalker, while the back cover displays an image of a haggard, approximately sixty-year-old Luke Skywalker. It is interesting to note that while Luke Skywalker seems to have aged properly, Mara Jade still looks like she is in her 20s or 30s, despite the two being only one year apart.
