Star Wars: Dark Disciple

內容簡介

內容簡介 這本最新的星際大戰小說，是根據電視影集《星際大戰：複製人之戰》未製作的影片所發展出來的故事，主要人物是前西斯門徒後來成為賞金獵人的Asajj Ventress，她是《星際大戰：星系》中最重要的反英雄人物之一。或許，讓西斯最危險的戰士倒下的唯一方法是加入絕地。在黑暗勢力軍隊與共和國之間，為了控制銀河所發動的戰爭中，前絕地大師後來卻成為冷酷的西斯尊主的Dooku伯爵，他的戰術越來越殘酷了。儘管有絕地的力量與複製人軍隊的作戰技巧，死亡人數還是不斷攀升。當Dooku下達屠殺一船無助的難民時，絕地會議不得不採取激烈的行動，他們的目標就是戰爭暴行的始作俑者：Dooku本人。即便是最有技巧的獵人，Dooku對他們來說，依舊是最危險也最難追蹤的獵物。因此，絕地會議做了一個大膽的決定，將原力兩方的力量參與其中：一個是傲慢無禮的絕地武士Quinlan Vos；另一個是聲名狼藉、曾經是西斯追隨者的Asajj Ventress。絕地對這個曾經追隨Dooku的狡猾殺手有著很深的不信任，而Ventress對她前任老師Dooku的恨意更深。因此，她比誰都想要把當作賞金獵人與刺客的所有絕活都傳授給Vos。只要Ventress與Vos對彼此的感覺不會危害他們的任務，那麼，他們就是消滅Dooku的最佳希望。Ventress決定接受報應，至少可以拋開過去效忠西斯的黑暗過去。她把戰士的憤恨與對Vos複雜的情感平衡地很好，她決定在各個面向都獲取勝利，而她所做的誓言將被無情的敵人與她個人的懷疑所試煉！Based on unproduced episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, this new novel features Asajj Ventress, former Sith apprentice turned bounty hunter and one of the great antiheroes in the Star Wars galaxy. The only way to bring down the Sith’s most dangerous warrior may be to join forces with the dark side.In the war for control of the galaxy between the armies of the dark side and the Republic, former Jedi Master turned ruthless Sith Lord Count Dooku has grown ever more brutal in his tactics. Despite the powers of the Jedi and the military prowess of their clone army, the sheer number of fatalities is taking a terrible toll. And when Dooku orders the massacre of a flotilla of helpless refugees, the Jedi Council feels it has no choice but to take drastic action: targeting the man responsible for so many war atrocities, Count Dooku himself. But the ever-elusive Dooku is dangerous prey for even the most skilled hunter. So the Council makes the bold decision to bring both sides of the Force’s power to bear—pairing brash Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos with infamous one-time Sith acolyte Asajj Ventress. Though Jedi distrust for the cunning killer who once served at Dooku’s side still runs deep, Ventress’s hatred for her former master runs deeper. She’s more than willing to lend her copious talents as a bounty hunter—and assassin—to Vos’s quest. Together, Ventress and Vos are the best hope for eliminating Dooku—as long as the emerging feelings between them don’t compromise their mission. But Ventress is determined to have her retribution and at last let go of her dark Sith past. Balancing the complicated emotions she feels for Vos with the fury of her warrior’s spirit, she resolves to claim victory on all fronts—a vow that will be mercilessly tested by her deadly enemy . . . and her own doubt.
