Jorie Taylor has lived her whole life on the generation ship Beacon. Fleeing an Earth tearing itself apart through its exhaustive demand for resources, the Beacon is finally approaching Sarbras, the planet circling Tau Ceti which they hope to make humanity's new home. But Earth has recovered from its near-death experience and is now under the control of a ruthless dictator whose sights are set on Tau Ceti as well. President Jurudu knows how to get what he wants - and he wants Sarbras. This is the first book in the new line The Stellar Guild from Phoenix Pick. Each book pairs a story by a bestselling author with one by a protege of the author's choosing. Both stories are set in the same universe.

Suspended helplessly between life and death, Luke Skywalker lies in state at the Jedi academy. But on the spirit plane, Luke fights desperately for survival, reaching out physically to the Jedi twins. At the same time, Leia is on a life-and-death mission of her own, a race against Imperial agents hoping to destroy a third Jedi child -- Leia and Han's baby Anakin -- hidden on the planet Anoth. Meanwhile, Luke's former proté gé Kyp Durron has pirated the deadly Sun Crusher on an apocalyptic mission of mass destruction, convinced he is fighting for a just cause. Hunting down the rogue warrior, Han must persuade Kyp to renounce his dark crusade and regain his lost honor. To do it, Kyp must take the Sun Crusher on a suicide mission against the awesome Death Star prototype -- a battle Han knows they may be unable to win... even with Luke Skywalker at their side!

Les champions de la Force (L'Académie Jedi, #3)

Le corps du Dr Gregory était carbonisé, figé en une posture qui exprimait une douleur inhumaine. - Cet homme a été tué par une explosion nucléaire, dit Scully en se redressant. Tous les indices concordent. Mulder regardait fixement le cadavre. - C'est impossible, murmura-t-il. La pièce est intacte ! Scully regarda les murs de la petite salle. - C'est pourtant la seule explication scientifique, vu l'état du corps. Mulder ne répondit pas. Une force inconnue et terrifiante était en train de tuer une par une toutes les personnes travaillant sur des projets nucléaires. Pendant ce temps, les militaires jouaient aux apprentis sorciers et le gouvernement mentait. Une fois de plus, Mulder et Scully étaient seuls, aux frontières du réel... Mais cette fois, il fallait qu'ils découvrent la vérité. La paix mondiale en dépendait.
