Publisher's summary
Swift and deadly, the Yuuzhan Vong have blasted their way across the galaxy—and now stand on the threshold of total victory. Yet a courageous few still dare to oppose them…
Rife with hostile cultures and outright enemies, the Unknown Regions hold many perils for Luke Skywalker and the Jedi searching for Zonama Sekot, the living planet that may hold the key to dealing with the Yuuzhan Vong once and for all.
Meanwhile, on the edge of the galaxy and in the heart of a trusted ally, old enemies are stirring. The Yuuzhan Vong have inflamed long-forgotten vendettas that are even now building up to crisis point. And as Han and Leia journey on their quest to knit the unraveling galaxy back together, betrayal and deception await them…

Trivia
While Tahiri and the Ryn are in the Bakuran subsystems, they disguise themselves as Yon, Gaitzi and Scod, a cleaning gang known as "The Tripod". This is a reference to Australian musical comedy group Tripod, and its members Scott "Scod" Edgar, Simon "Yon" Hall and Steven "Gatesy" Gates. The band frequently references Star Wars in its songs, with numbers such as The Star Wars Love Song (an ode to the lesser-known romances in the Star Wars universe).
Shortly before his death, Cundertol is said to be clenching his "fists", despite the fact that at this point in the story, he only has one arm.
