To be read as the first book in the series. Many people have wondered what happened to Ahsoka Tano, padawan to Anakin Skywalker, after she left the Jedi Order. Over the summer of 2014, I decided to start writing a story that was woven into the plot lines of both the Star Wars movies and the TV series. In the first book in my own ongoing series, I have explored what adventures Ahsoka might have gone on, and what old romantic attractions could have led to. \\ Also in this series: \\ Book One: Search Book Two: Disturbance Book Three: Empire Book Four: Journey Book Five: Master Book Six: Return Book Seven: Ascension Book Eight: Reborn Book Nine: Dissent Book Ten: Eventide Vode An || A UAAT Story Transcending Bonds (COMING SOON) Untitled sequel trilogy (COMING SOON)

To be read as the tenth and final book in the series. It all comes down to this. It's been a year and a half since Ahsoka Tano lost her memories to the girl she once called her Padawan, Kaylira Tramino, and, tragically, lost the girl herself to the Dark Side of the Force. While Kaylira's fate remains unknown, it is entirely possible her life could hang in the balance. The galaxy grows ever darker with the power of the Sith, but hope remains. As the Rebel informant Fulcrum, Ahsoka works alongside the Ghost Crew, Phoenix Squadron and the other Rebel cells scattered across the galaxy to combat the Empire's tyranny, united in a common objective by a change in protocol. But their every victory comes at a cost, perhaps in ways they cannot yet see. The stakes are higher than ever before for the fledgeling Rebellion, and they find themselves facing tougher odds and greater challenges every day. Sith Inquisitors determined to track down any remaining Jedi lie in wait around every turn, under the direction of a Sith Lord that the Rebels still know so little about. But Ahsoka will soon come to discover that the Sith Lord has had a far greater hand in her past than she originally thought. As new threats she isn't entirely prepared to deal with reveal themselves, in order to protect her family, she will be forced to make a choice that will define the future of the New Jedi Order, of the Rebellion, and potentially the galaxy as a whole... But will she choose right, wrong, or neither? Only time will tell... You'll find out how in the final instalment of The Unchronicled Adventures Of Ahsoka Tano! PLEASE NOTE: This story contains MAJOR spoilers for Star Wars Rebels Season 2. Reader's discretion advised.

And with Darth Maul, free of the restrictions of both a Master and the rules of the Sith Order, on the loose and trying to destroy her for reasons still unknown, will she be able to protect her unborn child, the Jedi ways she holds so dear, and the New Jedi Order that she leads? And now that the spark of rebellion is catching flame, her army of Rebel Troopers will be put to the test. But will they succeed? Who will reach them first?
