The Special Edition books tell two related tales: one with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan, the other with Obi-Wan and Anakin.

Sith devotees, under the leadership of psychotic Dr. Lundi, search for a dark Holocron which they believe is the key to untold depths of knowledge about the Dark Side. Their search leads them into conflict with Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan. Ten years later, Obi-Wan and Anakin must retrieve the Holocron. To do so, they turn to Dr. Lundi himself for help.
