Plot summary[edit | edit source]

Book VI, Part IV
YODA'S SECRET WAR

It is a time of renewed hope for the Rebel Alliance as
heroic rebel soldiers strive to overthrow Imperial efforts
throughout the galaxy.

Luke is stranded in his X-wing when R2-D2 goes on a solo
rescue mission for C-3PO. The rebel pilot has only the old
journals of Ben Kenobi to turn to, and has been reading
tales from the earlier days of Master Yoda.

After a daring rescue, Yoda feels a calling in the Force
and follows it to a planet inhabited only by child
warriors. Jealous of Yoda's abilities, they send him deep
into the heart of a mountain to seek a mysterious power.
It is in this mountain he stumbles upon another child,
Garro, and together they make a frightening discovery. The
mountain is alive....
