About this ebook

Dive into the epic series featuring the brave warriors of Omega Squad—an elite team of clone commandos fighting to protect the Galactic Republic.

Following the eruption of the bloody Clone Wars at the battle of Geonosis, both sides remain deadlocked in a stalemate that can be broken only by elite warrior teams like Omega Squad, clone commandos with terrifying combat skills and a lethal arsenal.

For Omega Squad, deployed deep behind enemy lines, it’s the same old special ops grind: sabotage, espionage, ambush, and assassination. But when Omega Squad is rushed to Coruscant, the war’s most dangerous new hotspot, the commandos discover they’re not the only ones penetrating the heart of the enemy. 

A surge in Separatist attacks has been traced to a network of cells in the Republic’s capital, masterminded by a mole in Command Headquarters. To identify and destroy a Separatist spy and terror network in a city full of civilians will require special talents and skills. Not even the leadership of Jedi generals, along with the assistance of Delta Squad and a certain notorious ARC trooper, can even the odds against the Republic Commandos. And while success may not bring victory in the Clone Wars, failure means certain defeat.

Ratings and reviews

Better introduction to the characters than the first book and personally one of my favorite books of all time. I only discovered there was a game after becoming a long time fan. Karen has hands down, always been at the top of my list of my favorite authors. And I found the whole Disney contraversy messed up one of my all-time favorite series. (Even though they cannonized it in the newer Clone Wars cartoon, which I thought was the coolest thing at the time) Anyways, if you're not into this book, then I can't say you'll like the rest of the series. It's pretty heavy with morals and emotions. If you're just looking for a shoot 'em up book, the first one is better for that. Karen, I'll never forget your books that helped me through hard times in my life and I'll always respect you and pretty much buy anything you write. Hope you're doing well Karen. 10/10 meaningful titles

I have probably read this book more times than any other. It is near perfect and the fact that the story never got a proper ending is a travesty.

This is far by the best book I have ever read, it gets you involved in a series that you can't put down.
