BioWare and LucasArts - creators of the hugely popular Star Wars: Knights of the
Old Republic video game - have combined their storytelling talents and cutting-edge
technology for an innovative new massively multiplayer online role-playing game that
allows players to create their own personal Star Wars adventure 3,500 years before
the rise of Darth Vader. Now, number-one New York Times best-selling author Sean
Williams brings the world of the game to life in his latest novel, Star Wars:
The Old Republic: Fatal Alliance.

Tassaa Bareesh, a matriarch in the Hutt crime cartel, is holding an auction that's
drawing attention from across the galaxy. Representatives of both the Republic and
the Sith Empire are present, along with a Jedi Padawan sent to investigate,
a disenfranchised trooper drummed out of the Republic's elite Blackstar Squad, and
a mysterious Mandalorian with a private agenda. But the Republic's envoy is not
what he seems, the Empire's delegate is a ruthless Sith apprentice, the Jedi Padawan
is determined to do the right thing and terrified that he can't, the trooper hopes
to redeem her reputation, and the Mandalorian is somehow managing to keep one step
ahead of everyone.

None of these guests - invited or uninvited - have any intention of participating
in the auction. Instead they plan to steal the prize, which is locked inside an
impregnable vault: two burned chunks of an exploded star cruiser, one of which may
hold the key to the wealth of an entire world.

But the truth about the treasure is dangerous and deadly. And in the end, Sith
and Jedi, Republic and Empire, must do something they've never done before,
something that all the agents of good and evil could never make them do: join
together to stop a powerful threat that could destroy the galaxy.
