The culmination of the Dark Forces trilogy follows the storyline established not only in the Soldier for the Empire and Rebel Agent books, but also the Dark Forces video games—including the obscure Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight and its DLC, Mysteries of the Sith. Due to its heavy referencing of previous material, you’re likely to be doing some digging on the internet in order to be up to speed even if you’ve read the previous entries in the trilogy.

Jedi Knight continues the story of Kyle Katarn’s battle against the Dark Jedi Jerec on the planet Ruusan. Each book in the Dark Forces Trilogy contains 25 original illustrations and even received an audio drama adaptation.
