In The Joiner King, Jedi Knights involved in a strike force in the book Star by Star, including Jaina and Jacen Solo, go missing. Luke, Han, and Leia leave home and to search for their kids in the Unknown Regions. They encounter a colony of alien insects led by a former disfigured old friend as king.
It is interesting to see how the Young Jedi Knights have grown and changed. Being under the influence of the aliens is rather frustrating, especially if you are familiar with their characters from earlier books. The alien insects are on the verge of all out war with the Chiss as the insects expand into Chiss space. This jeopardizes any alliance between the Republic and the Chiss and the insect Killiks. Having Luke get a glimpse of his mother from an old record file is rather heartbreaking.
