Sometimes it seems a Jedi's work is never done and Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker know this only too well. Despite the bond they share in the Force, after three years of marriage the Jedi Master and his wife are still learning the ropes of being a couple--and struggling to find time together between the constant demands of duty. But all that will change when they're united on an unexpected mission--and must pool their exceptional skills to combat an insidious enemy . . . and salvage a part of Jedi history. It begins with a message from a surprising source: Nirauan, the planet where Thrawn, dangerous disciple of Emperor Palpatine, once held sway . . . and from which Luke and Mara barely escaped with their lives. The message itself is shocking. After fifty years, the remains of Outbound Flight--a pioneering Jedi expedition viciously destroyed by Thrawn--have been found on Nirauan. Now, the fiercely honor-bound aliens who reside there wish to turn over the remnants of the doomed mission to the New Republic. Accepting the gesture will mean a long voyage into the treacherous cluster of stars where the thousands of souls aboard the Outbound Flight vessel met their grim fate. But it may also mean something more . . . something that has stirred an inexplicable sense of foreboding in Mara. Whatever may await, the Skywalkers will not face it alone. Joining them on the strange and solemn journey are an officer of the post-Palpatine Empire, escorted by a detachment of Imperial stormtroopers; a party of diplomats from a gentle alien species that reveres the fallen Jedi for saving them from bloodthirsty conquerors; and a New Republic ambassador who harbors his own mysterious agenda. Soon enough, suspicion, secrecy, and an unknown saboteur run rampant aboard the isolated ship. But it is within the derelict walls of Outbound Flight itself, buried for half a century on a desolate planetoid, where the gravest danger lies. As the marooned hulk yields up stunning revelations and unexpected terrors to its visitors, Luke and Mara find all they stand for--and their very existence--brutally challenged. And the ultimate test will be surviving the deathtrap carefully laid by foes who are legendary for their ruthlessness . . . and determined to complete the job Thrawn began: exterminating the Jedi. Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!… (mere)

I have always loved the Star Wars universe and especially the novels that were written about it. Timothy Zahn definitely writes my favorite books about it. His stories fit quite well within the framework of the existing Star Wars world while adding something new and extra to it. I like his writing style and characterizations a great deal. ( )

Although I like Zahn's Star Wars novels best out of all the different authors, this is not one of his better works. ( )

Zahn continues the Star Wars legacy as it pertains to Thrawn, one of the best villains and most interesting characters in the Star Wars universe. The story focuses on Outbound Flight, a flight sent out by the Old Republic years ago and thought destroyed by Thrawn. The Chiss (Thrawn's race) find the ship and seek to return it to the New Republic, specifically Luke and Mara Jade Skywalker. The only thing is that there ends up being four different factions involved and each has their secrets and their hidden agenda. It ends up reading almost as a murder mystery as plot after sub-plot is revealed and a simple task gains in complexity. If you like Zahn's other Star Wars books, don't skip this one. As a bonus, the publishers included the short story Fool's Bargain. It tells a tale of the Imperial 501st Legion. It's a good story and tells a fun tale but short stories don't seem to work well for Star Wars. I think that it's because the story / idea has so much depth and mythos to it that a short story leaves you wanting more and feeling like something is missing. Mix that up with it being placed at the end of the book and it's lack of depth becomes obvious; you can't help but compare it to the rest of the book which you just finished. ( )

comes right after the Hand of Thrawn duology. About the Outbound Flight. Very enjoyable. Good dynamics between Luke and Mara. ( )

Timothy Zahn lit a fire in the Star Wars universe several years ago when he authored the Thrawn trilogy, beginning with Heir to the Empire. He resumes telling the story of Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade Skywalker in Survivor’s Quest, sort of a mystery, which also explores Mara’s doubts about her chosen path. An entertaining read. Zahn is also working on a followup to this novel.

Published in hardcover by Del Rey. ( )
