Obi-Wan Kenobi is alive, but maybe not for long. He and Alpha, the ARC Trooper, are prisoners in the castle of the Dark Jedi Asajj Ventress. Not knowing how the Republic forces on Jabiim are faring, or even if Anakin is still alive, Obi-Wan and Alpha make a bid for freedom. But their only chance lies in General Kenobi temporarily casting off his Jedi training and fighting Ventress with the same ruthlessness that she herself brings to the battle!

As the violence of the Clone Wars spreads across the galaxy, Yoda is called upon to lead a clone army against the forces of a king who befriended him two hundred years before. Seeking a peaceful resolution by following the Force, Yoda is hampered by suicidal enemy soldiers, hotheaded young Jedi, single-minded Clone Commanders, and by the unwavering beliefs held by his one-time friend. It's the diminutive Jedi's most dangerous mission yet where a single wrong move could change the course of the war!

When whole worlds are sundered and entire sectors are set ablaze in conflict during the Clone Wars, it becomes hard to gauge the personal tragedies caused by the fighting, and whether or not there is a shadowy hand orchestrating such events. In the case of Jedi Rohnar Kim, who years ago struck up a friendship with a rising politician, he never dreamed that it would make him the target of one of the greatest evils the galaxy had ever seen.

Mace Windu Unleashed!

In the aftermath of one of the battles of the Clone Wars, a new threat arises: the Jedi discover that someone has placed a bounty on Jedi—the deader, the better. Rather than have his Jedi be targets on and off the battlefield, Mace Windu assembles a team of the toughest Jedi available. Their mission? Explain to the Bounty Hunters Guild, in no uncertain terms, that attacking Jedi is a very, very bad idea.

Four Jedi with prices on their heads versus a space station full of bounty hunters! Really, need we say more?

Mace Windu has decided that it’s time for the Jedi to flex their muscles demonstrate to the Bounty Hunters’ Guild the folly of attacking Jedi. It’s going to be a hard lesson—and one the Guild won’t soon forget. Meanwhile, Count Dooku sends renegade Jedi Quinlan Vos to teach a similar lesson to the person who originated the bounties. Is it a case of opposite sides working toward the same end, or are the Separatists still one step ahead of the Jedi?
