==Plot summary==
 
The alien [[Yuuzhan Vong]] have appeared throughout the [[Outer Rim Territories/Legends|Outer Rim]], [[Yuuzhan Vong War|attacking different sectors]] mercilessly. [[Lando Calrissian/Legends|Lando Calrissian's]] [[Planet/Legends|planet]] of [[Dubrillion/Legends|Dubrillion]] is [[Evacuation of Dubrillion|attacked and taken over]]. [[Luke Skywalker/Legends|Luke]] [[Skywalker family/Legends|Skywalker]] decides to deal with the Yuuzhan Vong's aggressiveness by mobilizing a select few [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]] for various reconnaissance missions. Luke and [[Darth Caedus|Jacen]] [[House of Solo|Solo]] go to [[Belkadan/Legends|Belkadan]], [[Corran Horn]] and the arrogant [[Ganner Rhysode]] are sent to the planet [[Bimmiel/Legends|Bimmiel]] to recover a group of missing scientists, and [[Anakin Solo]] accompanies [[Mara Jade Skywalker]] to [[Dantooine/Legends|Dantooine]] for the sake of Mara's rapidly deteriorating health.
  +
 
Luke and Jacen soon find the ExGal facility on Belkadan littered with the carnage of machinery, before discovering a Yuuzhan Vong outpost utilizing slaves as a means to grow their bioequipment. Corran and Ganner also find the group of scientists along with a Yuuzhan Vong outpost (also harboring slaves) whose inhabitants are searching for the remains of [[Mongei Shai|a Yuuzhan Vong that died]] and was recovered by the group of scientists. All the while on Dantooine, Mara is teaching young Anakin ways of [[The Force/Legends|the Force]] previously unknown to the youth. Jacen follows a vision he has, engages in and loses a battle to a Vong warrior on Belkadan, and is taken prisoner and placed in the [[Embrace of Pain]] prior to Luke's rescuing him. The two Jedi, sensing trouble on Dantooine, depart the planet. Their foresight serves them well, as they arrive just in time to rescue Anakin and Mara from Yuuzhan Vong warriors who have discovered them on the planet and are hunting the two.
  +
 
The Yuuzhan Vong, chasing refugees fleeing from the destruction on Dubrillion, arrive in force to the planet. The resulting "[[Battle of Dantooine (Yuuzhan Vong War)|onslaught]]" sees the slaughter of hundreds of the Vong's primary slave invasion force, along with a New Republic victory, though is costly because they lose half of their refugees during the battle.
  +
 
On Bimmiel, Corran and Ganner attempt to rescue two captured scientists. Ganner escapes with the two, leaving Corran to narrowly defeat the two Yuuzhan Vong warriors that appear; Ganner is forced to rescue the dying Corran, who then survives. [[Shedao Shai]], a male Yuuzhan Vong commander, is later notified of the killing of his kinsmen, [[Neira Shai|Neira]] and [[Dranae Shai|Dranae]] and the stealing of his ancestor's remains. Shai, overcome by vengeance, vows that he will taste the blood of the ''Jeedai'' (Vong mispronunciation of Jedi) responsible.

With unsurpassed action and imagination, New York Times bestselling author Michael A. Stackpole continues The New Jedi Order with DARK TIDE I: ONSLAUGHT, testing the heroes of the past along with the next generation of Jedi against fearsome enemies from beyond the galactic rim.…

It is a perilous time for the New Republic. Just when unity is needed most, mistrust is on the rise. Even the Jedi feel the strain, as rogue elements rebel against Luke Skywalker's leadership.

Plot summary

The alien Yuuzhan Vong have appeared throughout the Outer Rim, attacking different sectors mercilessly. Lando Calrissian's planet of Dubrillion is attacked and taken over. Luke Skywalker decides to deal with the Yuuzhan Vong's aggressiveness by mobilizing a select few Jedi for various reconnaissance missions.

Luke and Jacen soon find the ExGal facility on Belkadan littered with the carnage of machinery, before discovering a Yuuzhan Vong outpost utilizing slaves as a means to grow their bioequipment. Corran and Ganner also find the group of scientists along with a Yuuzhan Vong outpost (also harboring slaves) whose inhabitants are searching for the remains of a Yuuzhan Vong that died and was recovered by the group of scientists. All the while on Dantooine, Mara is teaching young Anakin ways of the Force previously unknown to the youth. Jacen follows a vision he has, engages in and loses a battle to a Vong warrior on Belkadan, and is taken prisoner and placed in the Embrace of Pain prior to Luke's rescuing him. The two Jedi, sensing trouble on Dantooine, depart the planet. Their foresight serves them well, as they arrive just in time to rescue Anakin and Mara from Yuuzhan Vong warriors who have discovered them on the planet and are hunting the two.

The Yuuzhan Vong, chasing refugees fleeing from the destruction on Dubrillion, arrive in force to the planet. The resulting "onslaught" sees the slaughter of hundreds of the Vong's primary slave invasion force, along with a New Republic victory, though is costly because they lose half of their refugees during the battle.

On Bimmiel, Corran and Ganner attempt to rescue two captured scientists. Ganner escapes with the two, leaving Corran to narrowly defeat the two Yuuzhan Vong warriors that appear; Ganner is forced to rescue the dying Corran, who then survives. Shedao Shai, a male Yuuzhan Vong commander, is later notified of the killing of his kinsmen, Neira and Dranae and the stealing of his ancestor's remains. Shai, overcome by vengeance, vows that he will taste the blood of the Jeedai (Vong mispronunciation of Jedi) responsible.

Continuity

Dark Tide I: Onslaught states that Kyp Durron was sixteen when he first came to the Jedi academy, but both I, Jedi[2] and Dark Apprentice, which depict his arrival at the academy, give his age as eighteen.[3] Durron's current age of thirty-two is accurate to the earlier novels, given that they are set in 11 ABY and Onslaught is set in 25 ABY.[1]

Jacen Solo's vision would later be retconned to be a foreshadowing of the actions he would take in the novel The New Jedi Order: Traitor.
