Star Wars Jedi Academy Books
Star Wars fans – A question about Mara Jade?
I’m confused – not about Mara herself, but about her skills in the force. In the books following the original trilogy, Mara attends Luke’s Jedi Academy, and leaves before learning to master her talent. Throughout the books, she is always picking up little things here and there, learning bit by bit, and finding weak spots to improve on. HOWEVER, in the newer book “Allegiance” (where she is 18 years old) Mara’s skills are finely honed, supposedly by the Emperor himself, and she has no problem using force skills in any manner. Did the author just make her more hardcore for the book, or am I missing some fall from the force somewhere along the line?
Well, this just shows how big of a Star Wars geek I am, but I can answer this one.
In the Heir to the Empire series by Timothy Zahn, the series that introduces Jade, it was explained that she had greater control of her powers while Palpatine was alive. He gave her extra power and focus. For instance, it was explained that if Jade had been allowed to follow Jabba when he was attempting to execute Luke, Han and Chewbacca in Return of the Jedi that they would of been killed because her powers were stronger than Luke’s at that point.

Star Wars Darth Bane #1: Path of Destruction $1.99 Once the Sith order teemed with followers. But their rivalries divided them in endless battles for supremacy. Until one dark lord at last united the Sith in the quest to enslave the galaxy–and exterminate the Jedi. Yet it would fall to another, far more powerful than the entire Brotherhood of Darkness, to ultimately realize the full potential of the Sith, and wield the awesome power of the dark side as never before.Since childhood, Dessel has known only the abuse of his hateful father and the dangerous, soul-crushing labor of a cortosis miner. Deep in the tunnels of the desolate planet Apatros, endlessly excavating the rare mineral valued throughout the galaxy, Dessel dreams of the day he can escape–a day he fears may never come. But when a high-stakes card game ends in deadly violence, Dessel suddenly finds himself a wanted man.On the run from vengeful Republic forces, Dessel vanishes into the ranks of the Sith army, and ships out to join the bloody war against the Republic and its Jedi champions. There, Dessel’s brutality, cunning, and exceptional command of the Force swiftly win him renown as a warrior. But in the eyes of his watchful masters, he is destined for a far greater role in the ultimate Sith plan for the galaxy–if he can prove himself truly worthy.As an acolyte in the Sith academy, studying the secrets and skills of the dark side at the feet of its greatest masters, Dessel embraces his new Sith identity: Bane. However the true test is yet to come. In order to gain acceptance into the Brotherhood of Darkness one must fully surrender to the dark side through a trial by fire that Bane, for all his unquenchable fury and lust for power, may not be strong enough to endure . . . especially since deception, treachery, and murder run rampant among the Sith disciples, and utter ruthlessness alone is the key to survival. Only by defying the most sacred traditions, rejecting all he has been taught, and drawing upon the |
