Rogue Planet (novel)

Rogue Planet is a young adult science fiction novel written by Greg Bear and published in 2000. It is the first book in the Star Wars: Junior Jedi Knights series, which is part of the broader Star Wars Expanded Universe (later rebranded as Star Wars Legends).

The novel follows the adventures of Jacen and Jaina Solo, twin children of Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo, and their friend Lowbacca, as they begin their Jedi training at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4.

The central plot revolves around the discovery of a rogue planet, Zonama Sekot, a sentient world with the ability to create living technology. The story explores the dangers and mysteries of the Force, the ethical considerations of sentient technology, and the early development of Jacen and Jaina's Jedi abilities. The trio's investigation into Zonama Sekot pits them against both Imperial remnants and unknown forces, ultimately leading them to a greater understanding of the living Force and their own potential within it. The novel is notable for its introduction of Zonama Sekot, a unique and significant planet within the Star Wars Legends continuity.
