Journey back to a time thousands of years before the hit films, when Jedi Knights were galactic peacekeepers -- and the Sith waited in the shadows!

A long, long time ago, the Star Wars galaxy was a very different place. Welcome to the Old Republic! When young Jedi Zayne Carrick is framed for murder by his own masters, he goes on the run with three unlikely allies: con artist Marn Hierogryph, fugitive scientist Camper and bodyguard Jarael. But can they survive long enough to clear Carrick’s name, uncover a conspiracy and maybe gain a bit of profit along the way? Strap in for an adventure that spans the galaxy as this ragtag group of heroes faces corrupted Jedi, deadly Mandalorians, the power of the Sith and more!
