Upon discovering that his wife Mirax has disappeared, Corran Horn, long time member of the famous "Rogue Squadron", does everything in his power to get her back.
In this epic of unsurpassed action and imagination, Michael Stackpole helps to launch an exciting new era in Star Wars history. Onslaught pits the battle-tested heroes of the past—Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Leia Organa Solo—along with the next generation of Jedi and droids, against fearsome never-before-encountered enemies from beyond the galactic rim . . .
It is a perilous time for the New Republic. Just when unity is needed most, mistrust is on the rise. Even the Jedi feel the strain, as rogue elements rebel against Luke's leadership. When alien invaders known as the Yunnan Vong strike without warning, the New Republic is thrown on the defensive. Merciless warriors, the Yunnan Vong glory in torture. Their technology is as strange as it is deadly. Most ominous of all, they are impervious to the Force.
Now Luke must wield all the awesome powers of a Jedi Master to defeat the gravest threat since Darth Vader. As Leia and Gavin Darklighter lead desperate refugees in a fighting retreat from Yunnan Vong forces, Mara Jade, Anakin, Jacen, and Corran Horn find themselves tested as never before by a faceless, implacable foe determined to smother the light of the New Republic forever beneath a shroud of darkest evil . . .

The brave pilots of Rogue Squadron face the impossible as the sinister Ysanne Isard wreaks havoc on a fragile Coruscant.
The Rebels have taken the Imperial headquarters world of Coruscant, but their problems are far from over.
A killer virus called Krytos is spreading among the population and fomenting a counterrevolution at the heart of the New Republic. At the same time, Rebel hero Tycho Celchu is on trial for treason, accused of murdering his comrade and fellow pilot Corran Horn.
Corran, however, is still alive, trapped in the secret, inescapable prison of Ysanne Isard, the imperial officer whose reputation for torture and cruelty have earned her the moniker Iceheart. As he fights for his freedom, the pilot discovers an extraordinary power in himself—the power of the Force!

v. 5
Set shortly after the events in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, the X-Wing Rogue series follows the further adventures of Captain Wedge Antilles and his crack team of X-Wing pilots. Darth Vader has been defeated by the rebel alliance, but the evil of the Empire lives on. The Imperials are readying themselves for the time when they will rule again -- and only the New Republic's top guns stand in their way. It's a delicate covert mission for the Rogue squadron: Lt. Celchu and Colonel Fel (aka Baron Fel, late of Imperial service) must escort Princess Leia to a summit conference on the planet Eiattu. Also along for the ride are Han Solo and his Wookie co-pilot Chewbacca. But all is not as it seems...Dark Forces are gathering.
