MUCHOS AÑOS ANTES DE ENFRENTAR A LOS AVENGERS, Loki no era más que un joven ansioso por demostrar su valentía y sus habilidades, aun cuando todos a su alrededor únicamente veían en él villanía e inmoralidad salvo Amora. La aprendiz de hechicera de Asgard parecia ser su alma gemela, alguien que no solo valoraba la magia y el conocimiento tanto como Loki, sino que ademas podia ver lo mejor de el. Cuando ambos provocan la destruccion de una de las posesiones mas preciadas de Asgard, Amora es exiliada a la Tierra, donde sus poderes desapareceran lenta y terriblemente. Sin la presencia de la unica persona que consideraba su magia como un don y no como una amenaza, Loki se ve cada vez mas atormentado por la angustia y la sombra de su hermano Thor, a quien todo el mundo adora. Sin embargo, cuando se relaciona la presencia de magia asgardiana con una serie de asesinatos misteriosos en la Tierra, Odin envia a Loki a investigar. Asi, se embarca en un viaje por el Londres del siglo XIX, un viaje que lo llevara a rastrear al sospechoso de asesinato y a descubrir la fuente de sus poderes y su destino.

Son palabras sombrías bajo cualquier circunstancia, pero aún más cuando son pronunciadas por el Emperador Palpatine.En Batuu, en el borde de las Regiones Desconocidas, está gestándose una amenaza para el Imperio. Su existencia es apenas visible, sus consecuencias apenas imaginables. Pero es lo suficientemente perturbadora para que el lider imperial ordene una investigacion a cargo de sus agentes mas poderosos: el despiadado Lord Vader y el brillante estratega, el Gran Almirante Thrawn.Ambos compiten por la aprobacion del Emperador al mismo tiempo que tienen opiniones opuestas en varios asuntos imperiales (como el proyecto Estrella de la Muerte); sin embargo, este par inusual se unira para una mision crucial. Pero el Emperador sabe que no es la primera vez que Vader y Thrawn unen sus fuerzas. Ademas, detras de esta orden real hay mas de lo que ninguno de los dos sospecha.Hace una vida, los caminos del General Anakin Skywalker de la Republica Galactica y el Comandante Mitthrawnuruodo, oficial de la Ascendencia Chiss, se cruzaron por primera vez. Uno estaba en una desesperada mision personal, el otro tenia motivos desconocidos... y ocultos. Pero tras enfrentar una tormenta de peligros en aquel mundo lejano, formaron una alianza improbable en la que ninguno sabia lo que le esperaba.Ahora, juntos una vez mas, se encuentran en camino al planeta donde alguna vez lucharon uno al lado del otro. Ahi, se enfrentaran con dos desafios: una prueba de lealtad al Imperio... y un enemigo que podria amenazar incluso a su fuerza unida.

Desde su introducción en la ya clásica novela Heredero del Imperio, de Timothy Zahn, pasando por sus aventuras en El resurgir de la fuerza oscura y La última orden, el Gran Almirante Thrawn se hizo lugar entre los mas grandes villanos de Star Wars. Pero los origenes y la historia de su ascenso en los rangos imperiales han sido un misterio.Despues de ser rescatado de su exilio por soldados imperiales, el ingenio y las habilidades letales de Thrawn no tardan en capturar la atencion del Emperador Palpatine. En poco tiempo, Thrawn demuestra ser tan indispensable para el Imperio como ambicioso; tan devoto como Darth Vader; y un guerrero tan brillante que no debe nunca ser subestimado.Triunfa una y otra vez capturando contrabandistas, cazando espias y derrotando piratas, incluso cuando sus metodos poco convencionales hacen enojar a sus superiores al tiempo que inspiran admiracion por parte del Imperio. Un ascenso le sigue a otro en su adquisicion de poder.En el camino, se convierte en el mentor de su leal ayudante, el Alferez Eli Vanto, a quien educa en las artes del combate y del liderazgo, asi como en los secretos para alcanzar la victoria. Pero, aunque Thrawn domina el campo de batalla, aun tiene mucho que aprender en el mundo politico, donde la brutal administradora Arihnda Pryce mantiene el potencial de convertirse en una aliada poderosa o una enemiga brutal. Todas estas lecciones seran puestas a prueba cuando Thrawn se convierta en almirante y deba utilizar todo el conocimiento, los instintos y la fuerza de batalla a su disposicion contra el levantamiento enemigo que amenaza no solo con acabar vidas inocentes, sino tambien el lugar del Emperador de la galaxia, asi como los planes de Thrawn en su incansable busqueda de poder.
