From Amazon.com

Fifty-seven years have passed since the events of Phantom Menace, 25 since A New Hope, and 21 since the Empire's final defeat over Endor. The still-fragile New Republic, rocked by internal conflict, now faces a potentially overwhelming challenge from beyond the known galaxy: the Yuuzhan Vong, a sinister race of warriors using highly advanced (and creepy) organic "devices" and vehicles, whose immense strength and technological edge lets them fight toe to toe with Jedi. And who better to flesh out these powerful and malevolent aliens, so dismissive and disdainful of humanity, than R.A. Salvatore, the author who almost single-handedly popularized Dungeons and Dragons' equally awful bad guys, the Drow, with his Drizzt Do'Urden books.

In kicking off Del Rey's five-year New Jedi Order story arc, Salvatore must endure the predictable hazing of any new Star Wars author. But an accomplished storyteller backed by legions of fans, the Dark Elf author proves to be up to the task and thankfully sensitive to the well-loved characters he's borrowing time with. Vector Prime sets up the early stages of the covert Praetorite Vong invasion, giving us a closeup glimpse of this nefarious new race and following our heroes' attempts to combat them. Luke struggles with whether to revive the Jedi Council; Mara still fights her deadly disease; Lando is back helping Han, Chewie, and Leia; and Leia and Solo's kids finally come into their own. Prepare yourself, though, for when a major, beloved character gets ceremoniously smushed. (Although we've seen Boba Fett come back from worse.... ) --Paul Hughes --Ce texte provient de la Hardcover édition.

Product Description

Twenty-one years have passed since the heroes of the Rebel Alliance destroyed the Death Star, breaking the power of the Emperor. Since then, the New Republic has valiantly struggled to maintain peace and prosperity among the peoples of the galaxy. But unrest has begun to spread and threatens to destroy the Republic's tenuous reign.

Into this volatile atmosphere comes Nom Anor, a charismatic firebrand who heats passions to the boiling point, sowing seeds of dissent for his own dark motives. And as the Jedi and the Republic focus on internal struggles, a new threat surfaces from beyond the farthest reaches of the Outer Rim--an enemy bearing weapons and technology unlike anything New Republic scientists have ever seen.

Suddenly, Luke Skywalker; his wife, Mara; Han Solo; Leia Organa Solo; and Chewbacca--along with the Solo children--are thrust again into battle, to defend the freedom so many have fought and died for. But this time, the power of the Force itself may not be enough . . .

5.0étoiles sur 5 21 years after Rebel Victory..., Jui 16 2004
Par Eric (New York) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Unrest within the galaxy rears its head again. And, thus, yet another thrilling space opera adventure at its finest begins, sweeping us all away to "long ago in a galaxy far, far away"! Now, even though I grew up with the Original Series Star Trek and have a particular preference for it, I am also an avid fan of sci-fi in general and it would be an injustice on my part not to mention the many other old and new sci-fi works that led me to Star Trek and Star Wars and which have forever forged my love for all sci-fi works: "Stranger in a Strange Land", "Puppet Masters", "Foundation", "2001", "2010", "Rendezvous with Rama", "Ringworld", "Prey", "Halo", as well as books as new to the genre as "Advent of the Corps" and others.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Star Wars, or a demented fanfiction, Mai 18 2004
Par Un client
This is the first time Star Wars has resembled fanfiction. That is what it seems like. A strange, demented, odd fanfiction.
Salvatore does not understand Star Wars.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Necessary but not enjoyable, Mai 17 2004
Par Un client
Although Star Wars fans will want to read this book as it is the kickoff of the New Jedi Order series, they shouldn't expect much out of it quality-wise. The writing is poor, the viewpoints change without warning and the dialogue is stiff and unbelievable. However, it contains the introduction to our heroes' new enemy, the Vong, and a wealth of information that is helpful upon reading later books.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Not a great stand alone, but a good start.
RA Salvatore's Vector Prime would not make a good stand alone book in the Star War universe. It does, however, make a good beginning to a great series. Read more
