NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Grand Admiral Thrawn faces the ultimate test of his loyalty to the
Empire in this epic Star Wars novel from bestselling author Timothy Zahn. If I were to serve
the Empire you would command my allegiance. Such was the promise Grand Admiral Thrawn made to
Emperor Palpatine at their first meeting. Since then Thrawn has been one of the Empire's most
effective instruments pursuing its enemies to the very edges of the known galaxy. But as keen
a weapon as Thrawn has become the Emperor dreams of something far more destructive. Now as
Thrawn's TIE defender program is halted in favor of Director Krennic's secret Death Star
project he realizes that the balance of power in the Empire is measured by more than just
military acumen or tactical efficiency. Even the greatest intellect can hardly compete with the
power to annihilate entire planets. As Thrawn works to secure his place in the Imperial
hierarchy his former protégé Eli Vanto returns with a dire warning about Thrawn's homeworld.
Thrawn's mastery of strategy must guide him through an impossible choice: duty to the Chiss
Ascendancy or fealty to the Empire he has sworn to serve. Even if the right choice means
committing treason. Praise for Thrawn: Treason Another excellent addition to the new canon . .
