Feared for his brilliance and revered for his ruthlessness, Grand Admiral Thrawn is one of the Empire's most formidable warriors--and one of Star Wars' most unforgettable villains. First introduced in Timothy Zahn's Heir to the Empire, the blue-skinned, red-eyed mastermind now rises to power in Thrawn.

Rescued from exile by Imperial forces, Thrawn's cunning and strategic genius capture the eye of Emperor Palpatine himself. Battle by battle, he crushes smugglers, spies, and pirates with effortless precision--earning both awe and resentment within the Empire. As his influence grows, he trains his protégé, Ensign Eli Vanto, in the ruthless art of command while matching wits with the ambitious Arihnda Pryce, whose political power could make her ally--or enemy.

But when rebellion ignites across the galaxy, Thrawn must wield every weapon at his disposal to secure victory for the Empire--and seize his own destiny among the stars.
