At long last the Imperial protectorate of Xandoria will choose a new ruler, but this is not a happy day for all. While the throne has lain fallow, a new power structure has emerged to fill the void. While the painted face of hope smiles upon the people, the black hand of conflict moves its pieces into position for the final strike. Sequel to "Peril on Bespin"and "Terror in Mos Eisley." Written by Gregory Nagler.
