The New Jedi Order: Destiny’s Way
A working science-fiction novelist arrives and rebuilds the war from the strategy up.
Published in October 2002, Walter Jon Williams’s only Star Wars novel turns the war around: the New Republic reorganises as the Galactic Alliance, Cal Omas is elected, and the fleet finally wins an engagement at Ebaq 9 by planning one. It is the most competent piece of military plotting in the series.
