STAR WARS: THE HIGH REPUBLIC PHASE II - QUEST OF THE JEDI OMNIBUS

One hundred and fifty years before the fall of Starlight, another beacon burns bright in the galaxy. Jedha. The Pilgrim Moon. The Kyber Heart. But tensions are rising in the holy city, and dark days are to come. Jedi Vildar Mac arrives just as Jedha's fragile peace begins to crumble. With one Jedi lying dead in an ancient shrine, another takes up the murderer's trail. Who is using ancient Force powers on the holy city's streets? Why are sacred relics going missing? And why do all roads lead to the Temple of the Whills? Plus: Witness the birth of a Jedi legend! Porter Engle is perhaps the most skilled lightsaber wielder in the High Republic - a guardian of peace and justice, traveling the galaxy with his sister and fellow Jedi Knight, Barash Silvain!
