Ok. Luke and a team consisting of Jacen Solo, Danni Quee and some other soldiers and scientists, have begun a mission to find Zonama Sekot in order to discover how it defeated the Vong so many years ago.

Leia and Han try to convince the Imperial Remanant to join the Republic. They refuse of course. But after Grand Admiral Palleon is saved from death after being fatally injured in a battle against the Vong, the empire decide to offer some support to the Republic.

Also, that famous Star Destroyer Chimera is destroyed, and the Yevethan race is driven to extinction by the Vong.

The most recent book is Force Heretic 2: Refugee.

In it, Luke and team try to track down Zonama Sekot but end up on many other strange planets. So they seek the help of the Chiss, who "rule" the unknown regions. The rest of the Solo family go back to Bakura to enlist their help. However, the Vong have plans for Bakura which involve the Ssi Ruuk and the Prime minister of Bakura.

Nom Anor, now an outcast, has become a "Force Heratic" (hence the title) known only as The Prophet. He now leads the masses of shamed ones hiding in the underground of Yuuzhan'tar.

The book ends with Luke and team finding a planet which they are convinced is Zonama Sekot. Bakura erupts in war again as the Ssi Ruuk attack and the prime minister is discovered to be only a droid.

You Mean "The Unifying Force" is already out? I thought it was due to be released this December?

No, he means hardcover books are alot of money, and soft covers where he lives aren't that much.

Not that the book is out yet.
