Ki-Adi-Mundi is a Jedi Knight of formidable strength and influence. On his homeworld of Cerea, most of the planet's citizens are happy to continue their low-tech lives of simplicity, isolated from the Republic, but a growing voice calls for the advanced technologies brought by offworlders. When Ki becomes a strong voice of opposition for such development he is falsely charged with murder and is swiftly drawn into a web of consipracy and intrigue with the powerful Trade Federation at its center, setting the stage for Episode 1 -- The Phantom Menace!

Winding and wicked are the roads to Hell.
Roads filled with actors trading masks of
comedy and tragedy for ones of human
flesh. Roads backed up with vets whose
wars could never leave enough scars to
please the Cenobites. Roads paved with
lost travelers offering their souls for a final
glimpse of the light. But there are shortcuts
to Hell, as well , mapped out inside these
pages by the infernal imaginings of Clive
Barker. They're guaranteed to get you
down below in style.

Getting back is your problem.

Like Flies to Wanton Boys by Bunny Hampton-Mack, Scott Hampton
To Prepare a Face by Jan Strnad, Mark Chiarello

The delightful Wickedness of Clive Barker's Hell
waits for its victims in more than mere puzzle boxes.
It waits in the mystery of crystal lifeforms
lightyears away. It waits in seductive whispers of
evil at a Parisian artists' colony. It waits in the
notes a musical genius plays on the way to madness.
Inside these pages, Hell waits for you--
and it can afford to be patient.

It has eternity on its side.
