This is a series by [http://boards.theforce.net/UserPages/Profile.aspx?user=YodaKenobi YodaKenobi]{{Dead link}} comprised of four novel-length stories. This is only the latest series in YodaKenobi's alternate universe (referred to as "the Yobiverse" by some). His original trilogy of ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20081212074944/http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=12867139 Revolution]'', ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20050414000757/http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=14085947 The Eighth Cortex]'', and ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20081211083424/http://boards.theforce.net/Beyond_the_Saga/b10477/16202587/ The Living Force]'' form an alternate ending to the [[New Jedi Order]] series, one wherein Anakin Solo survives to become the hero of the Yuuzhan Vong War. Then there is a "bridge fic," ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20081211083429/http://boards.theforce.net/Beyond_the_Saga/b10477/18632333/ Empire of the Hand]'' that leads into the present series.
 
From the author's own words:
 
{{quote| "This story takes place three years after ''The Living Force'', approximately 32 ABY, known as the beginning of the 'Raithian Wars.' A period that has long been ignored. It tells the story of the rise of the Raithians, and the Jedi from the Skywalker bloodline who became 'Darth Havok.'"}}
 
And from the words of fan MasterGhandalf:
 
{{quote| "All of YodaKenobi's stuff is great, but his main storyline starts with a trilogy that serves as an alternate ending for the New Jedi Order in which Anakin Solo is revealed to be alive, and continues with the bridge epic 'Empire of the Hand' and the currently ongoing "Legacy of the Sith" four-fic arc. In this series, the Galactic Alliance is threatened by a new race of alien invaders several years after the Vong War ends, only to be rescued by the forces of a mysterious empire from the Unknown Regions. But nothing is as it seems, and a new Sith Lord plans to somehow use the descendants of Anakin Skywalker to change the very nature of the Force itself. The above summary only gives you a rough idea — this series embodies the best of Star Wars, with action, humor, mysterious revelations, Force philosophy, and an awesome [[Big Bad]] [[Magnificent Bastard]] in the form of Darth Malig. I really can't recommend this enough — if you're dissatisfied with the current EU and are in desperate need of some quality Star Wars, look no further than YodaKenobi."}}
 
This is a series that has something for every kind of Star Wars fan and has become a haven for those disillusioned by more recent [[Star Wars Expanded Universe]] works.
