Overview
Journey to the far edge of the galaxy with this complete Thrawn Ascendancy trilogy from New York Times bestselling author Timothy Zahn. Long before he became a feared Imperial Grand Admiral, Thrawn rose through the ranks of the mysterious Chiss Ascendancy. This three-book paperback set collects Chaos Rising, Greater Good, and Lesser Evil, tracing the political intrigue, warfare, and calculated brilliance that shaped one of Star Wars' most iconic strategists, in one collectible bundle for fans old and new.
About the Books
Set generations before the events of the original Star Wars trilogy, the Thrawn Ascendancy series pulls back the curtain on the Unknown Regions and the enigmatic Chiss Ascendancy that Thrawn calls home. In Chaos Rising, an unprecedented attack on the Ascendancy's capital forces the Nine Ruling Families to confront an enemy they cannot identify, and a young officer named Thrawn must prove his tactical genius under pressure. Greater Good follows Thrawn as his growing reputation brings honour and danger to House Mitth, as rival families use gifts and quiet manipulation as weapons every bit as sharp as warships. In the finale, Lesser Evil, the fragile unity of the Ascendancy fractures, and Thrawn must choose between loyalty to his family, his people, and his own principles, setting the stage for the choices that carry him into the Galactic Empire's service. Written with Zahn's signature attention to military strategy and political nuance, this trilogy expands the wider Star Wars canon while standing on its own as a gripping character study. Fans of tactical thrillers, court intrigue, and morally complex heroes will find plenty to enjoy, whether coming to the series as devoted Star Wars readers or newcomers drawn in by strong, character-driven science fiction.
