[edit] Publisher's Description
Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and the Rebel Alliance have fought valiantly against the evil Galactic Empire. Together they have kept alive the hopes for freedom, and helped restore the ways of the Old Republic with its wise Senate and noble line of Jedi Knights. But now a new threat awaits the Alliance.
Within the evil Empire, the surviving Imperial warlords have been fighting among themselves for power. No one knows who will seize control, but the Prophets of the Dark Side have foretold that soon a new Emperor will arise, and on his right hand he shall wear an indestructible symbol of evil... The Glove of Darth Vader
[edit] Summary
In the book, Grand Moff Hissa sets up Trioculus as Palpatine's son and, therefore, heir to the Empire. However, Kadann, Supreme Prophet of the Dark Side, foretells the rightful heir will wear the glove of Darth Vader. Despite the efforts of Luke Skywalker and the Rebel Alliance, Trioculus retrieves the glove from Mon Calamari.
