A República sucumbiu e agora a galáxia é governada por Lordes Sith. O mestre Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi perdeu tudo… menos a esperança. No mundo desértico e inóspito de Tatooine – um lugar improvável para se encontrar um Mestre Jedi escondido ou um menino órfão em cujos pequenos ombros repousa o futuro de uma galáxia –, um estrangeiro barbudo e encapuzado, conhecido pelos habitantes locais apenas como “Ben”, é um indivíduo estranho e enigmático que vive sozinho, não compartilha nada sobre seu passado e se esforça para permanecer um forasteiro.

The least important features, as well as the most important components, were all well developed in cultures that flourished before the time that Christ is alleged to have walked the parched paths of Roman Palestine.

The Joker is dead, but not forgotten. Gotham City is saved, but it is still not safe. By night, its new symbol of hope, Batman, continues his fight to protect the innocent and the powerless. By day, his alter ego, Bruce Wayne, wonders whether there may someday be a future beyond skulking the city’s rooftops or the cavernous halls of his stately manor alongside the ever-dutiful Alfred Pennyworth. But even after death, the Clown Prince of Crime’s imprint can be seen in more than just the pavement.

"Ethiopia and the Origin of Civilization" by John G. Jackson is a seminal work that challenges traditional Eurocentric perspectives on the origins of civilization.

The Jedi have always traveled the stars, defending peace and justice across the galaxy. But, the galaxy is changing, and along with it, the Jedi Order. More and more, the Order finds itself focused on the future of the Republic, secluded on Coruscant, where the twelve members of the Jedi Council weigh crises on a galactic scale. As yet another Jedi Outpost leftover from the Republic’s golden age is set to be decommissioned on the planet Kwenn, Qui-Gon Jinn challenges the Council about the increasing isolation of the Order.

God is calling us to:

Als Captain Christopher Pike vom Ausbruch der Feindseligkeiten zwischen der Vereinigten Föderation der Planeten und dem Klingonischen Reich hört, versucht er, die U.S.S. Enterprise nach Hause zu bringen und sich dem Kampf anzuschließen. Doch in dem höllischen Pergamon-Nebel findet der unerschütterliche Kommandant einen ganz eigenen epischen Kampf vor, bei dem sich uralte Feinde miteinander messen - und nicht nur die Enterprise wird zur Kriegsbeute, sondern auch ihre Besatzung.

Das Klingonische Reich steht am Abgrund. Im Nachhall der Gewalt des Unbesungenen-Kults droht Paranoia Kanzler Martoks Regierung zu entzweien. Immer lauter wird der Ruf der Klingonen nach einer stärkeren Hand, die Kontrolle zu übernehmen und der meisterhafte Ränkeschmied, Lord Korgh, ist nur zu gerne bereit, diesem Ruf zu folgen.

Mit Hilfe eines hinterlistigen Agenten verbünden sich die Feinde des Reichs im Verborgenen, um die Situation zu ihrem Vorteil zu nutzen.

Als 2285 der klingonische Commander Kruge im Kampf gegen James T. Kirk auf dem Genesis-Planeten fiel, stürzte das ein mächtiges Haus ins Chaos - und es blieben einige tickende Zeitbomben zurück: Das Phantomgeschwader, eine geheime Einheit fortschrittlicher Bird-of-Preys; eine verschworene Gruppe loyaler Offiziere, die sein Erbe bewahren wollten; und der junge Korgh, sein abgesetzter Erbe, der bereit war, ein ganzes klingonisches Leben lang auf seine Vergeltung zu warten.

Eine neue, epische Trilogie, die ihren Anfang während dem Film mit der Originalbesatzung - "Auf der Suche nach Mr. Spock" - nimmt, und sich bis in "The Next Generation" erstreckt! In dieser ein Jahrhundert umspannenden Trilogie ist Rache wirklich ein Gericht, das am besten kalt serviert wird. Die Allianz zwischen den Klingonen und der Föderation steht auf Messers Schneide. Die Unbesungenen, ein klingonischer Kult, wüten durch die Galaxis, schlagen im Schutz ihrer getarnten Bird-of-Preys zu.

Robert H. Jackson was one of the giants of the Roosevelt era: an Attorney General, a still revered Supreme Court Justice and, not least important, one of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's close friends and advisers. His intimate memoir of FDR, written in the early 1950s before Jackson's untimely death, has remained unpublished for fifty years. Here is that newly discovered memoir.

The Klingon Empire stands on the precipice. In the wake of violence from the cult known as the Unsung, paranoia threatens to break Chancellor Martok's regime. Klingons increasingly call for a stronger hand to take control...one that Lord Korgh, master manipulator, is only too willing to offer.

Tatooine—a harsh desert world where farmers toil in the heat of two suns while trying to protect themselves and their loved ones from the marauding Tusken Raiders. A backwater planet on the edge of civilized space. And an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding, or an orphaned infant boy on whose tiny shoulders rests the future of a galaxy.
