Due to his controversial actions, Grand Admiral Thrawn has been demoted by Emperor Palpatine into an obscure administrative post on Coruscant. When Thrawn learns that a high profile rebel contact of his has gone missing, he must find out who or what is responsible and eliminate them before they can provide new leads for the Rebellion.

Timothy Zahn continues to introduce new characters, places and conflicts into the Star Wars universe with Book II: Greater Good of the Thrawn series. The story begins where last book left off with Grand Admiral Thrawn learning that his past is written in stone and no one can change it. He must now face the challenges of various new characters including a former Emperor's Hand who has been sent on a suicide mission to find and capture or kill a Force sensitive child, the daughter of Wedge Antilles, who is part of Colonel Varth Irriya's militia forces.

This is the second book in Timothy Zahn's follow up to his masterful Thrawn trilogy. After many years of tense negotiations, a peace treaty is finally signed between the Galactic Empire and the Republic. Thrawn, who has long been a leader against Imperial aggression, decides to retire from active service and become an adviser to Emperor Palpatine.

"Thrawn is a shrewd and calculating strategist, willing to use cunning and deception to achieve his goals. He is also highly intelligent, often displaying a wry sense of humor in his observations."

Thrawn, the Imperial Admiral of the Galactic Empire, is on a stolen mission to try to liberate his homeworld, Coruscant. But as he chases an elusive Rebel leader across the galaxy, Thrawn learns that there may be more at stake than just reclaiming his home.
