Science Fiction
In the New York Times bestseller Darth Bane: Path of
Destruction, Drew Karpyshyn painted a gripping portrait of
a young man’s journey from innocence to evil. That man was
Darth Bane, a twisted genius whose iron will, fierce
ambition, and strength in the dark side of the Force made
him a natural leader among the Sith–until his radical
embrace of an all-but-forgotten wisdom drove him to destroy
his own order . . . and create it anew from the ashes. As
the last surviving Sith, Darth Bane promulgated a harsh new
directive: the Rule of Two. Two there should be; no more, no less.
One to embody the power, the other to crave it. Now Darth Bane is ready to put his policy into action, and
he thinks he has found the key element that will make his
triumph complete: a student to train in the ways of the
dark side. Though she is young, Zannah possesses an
instinctive link to the dark side that rivals his own. With
his guidance, she will become essential in his quest to
destroy the Jedi and dominate the galaxy. But there is one who is determined to stop Darth Bane:
Johun Othone, Padawan to Jedi Master Lord Hoth, who died at
Bane’s hands in the last great Sith War. Though the rest of
the Jedi scoff at him, Joshua’s belief that there are
surviving Sith on the loose is unshakeable. As Johun continues his dogged pursuit of the man who killed
his master, Zannah, faced unexpectedly with a figure from
her past, begins to question her embrace of the dark side.
And Darth Bane is led by Force-induced visions to a moon
where he will acquire astonishing new knowledge and power–
power that will alter him in ways he could never have
imagined. . . .
