[edit] Book Blurb
The Dark Jedi Brakiss - the student Master Skywalker expelled from his academy - has learned much since he left. Enough to master the Dark Side of the Force. And enough to establish his own school for training Jedi - the Shadow Academy.
But now, Brakiss has been given another greater task. Not only must he create a sinister legion of Dark Jedi to serve the Empire, he must undertake a challenge not even Darth Vader and the Emperor could meet: Kidnap the heirs of the Skywalker bloodline, and turn them to the Dark Side of the Force.
[edit] Plot Summary
Jacen and Jaina are kidnapped by Imperial commandos and whisked off to a hidden planet where they are imprisoned in the "Shadow Academy" by a Dark Jedi.
