This one is for Dave Dorman
whose brilliant cover art has made the Young Jedi Knights series shine
Special thanks to Matt Bialer of the William Morris Agency, without whom this third story arc might never have seen the light of day; Sue Rostoni, Allan Kausch, and Lucy Autrey Wilson at Lucas Licensing for their valuable input; Ginjer Buchanan and Jessica Faust at Berkley for their support throughout this series; Dan Wallace for his research and resource materials; the work of Brian Daley, Al Williamson, and Archie Goodwin in providing background for our story; Debra Ray at AnderZone for her personal support and cheer-leading when we needed it most; Catherine Ulatowski and Sarah Jones at WordFire, Inc., for keeping everything running smoothly; and, as always, Jonathan Cowan for being our first test-reader.
