Apocalypse by Troy Denning

This book concludes the Fate of the Jedi series, and wraps up most of the loose ends from the series, while setting up a few new directions for stories--mostly focused on Jedi-v.-Sith encounters. There was actually a lot of mythology in this story to explain who Abeloth actually is (and to ret-con a few Clone Wars TV episodes). I enjoyed the Jagged Fel parts especially--he plays the political game as well as Princess Leia (and apparently flies as well as Han Solo, so he's sort of a complete package). The parts with Allana/Amelia Solo were fairly unbelievable (although so was Anakin Skywalker in Episode I, so maybe it's a Jedi thing. But then we all know how well that turned out for him....).
