Crimson Empire II - Council of Blood (Star Wars: Crimson Empire II) - Softcover

Based on the characters and worlds created by George Lucas and set some years after the events in the movie Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, this sequel to the bestselling Crimson Empire expands on and continues the saga of the evil galactic Empire and the rebels who oppose them. The rise of the new Crimson Empire continues, as former Imperial Guardsman Kir Kanos vows to destroy the members of the Interim Council that, he feels, have betrayed former Emperor Palpatine. But other forces are gathering, and they too have their sights firmly set on the vacant Emperor's throne.
