[edit] Publisher's Description

Hoole, Tash, Zak, and Deevee head for Kiva, a dark world on the Outer Rim. Somehow, Hoole knows that is where Gog's laboratory lies. There, Tash and Zak will finally learn Hoole's terrible secret. And they'll come face-to-face with a horrifying new creature, the very first soldier in Gog's Army of Terror. The creature is a combination of every one of Gog's horrible experiments, and there is only one way to defeat him. Can Tash and Zak figure out the answer before it's too late?

[edit] Trivia

  • The shadow creatures inhabiting Kiva were reduced to that state by an accident caused by Gog and Hoole. Little is said about the connection between Gog and Hoole, but they once worked together, which is interesting because they are both Shi'idos.
  • Gog's weapon i disguised as an innocent baby, with a bruise on his forehead, named "Eppon". Many people left alone with the baby mysteriously disappear. The baby also grows at an alarming rate and quickly matures into an adult. The bruise grows to consume his whole body, transforming him into a dangerous creature. The name "Eppon" is a pun on "Weapon".
  • When Gog is exposed, the citizens of Kiva are left to do as they please with him.
  • Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Luke Skywalker, and C-3PO all make an appearence in the book as they attempt to stop Project Starscream. Their appearence in the book is apparently prior to their relocation to Hoth.
