As an Army brat, Pat found the line between fantasy and reality to be seriously fuzzy as she climbed through castles along the Rhine and dodged witches in Okinawan villages. Her more than 35 books include board books, a nonfiction series called Talking with Artists, and even a teen novel. But her taste for picture book fantasies is clear in her newest title, Beauty and the Beast, translated from the original French and retold by her husband, H. Chuku Lee.
For what age audience do you write?
Primarily, I write and illustrate picture books for the 4-8 year old reader. I lean towards fantasy and humor... but I love a good story or topic in any genre.
Henry: Fantasy and humor. I knew I liked you for a reason.
Tell us about your latest book.
Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite fairy tales. My husband and I were both enchanted by Jean Cocteau's film version. His vision of the beast as elegant, haunted and mysterious made me feel sympathy for what should have been the antagonist. And when Chuku retold the story, he did it from Beauty's point of view which was a fresh take. I found that trying to capture the emotions of these two characters made the story come to life for me. I knew that I wanted my Beauty to be black and the Beast to carry the scarifications that an African prince might. So I let memories from my travels in West Africa mix with images from Cocteau, then tossed in fairy tale elements I've always found appealing...like bestial topiary and hidden faces.
Henry: And really, who doesn't like scarifications and bestial topiary?
What do you hope readers will get from reading that book?
I hope they'll escape into a dreamlike world and feel the value in the courage and integrity Beauty exhibits. As Chuku wrote in the intro: it's about the power of a promise. Being true to one's word seems like a timeless theme worth retelling.
Henry: We need to keep retelling until people get it!
What aspect of writing or illustrating do you find most challenging?
Finishing. I have stacks of ideas, pages of sketches and drawings and projects in different stages of development. The challenge is always getting to the finish line with one, and not allowing other projects to tease me away.
Henry: *checks Wikipedia definition of ADD*
What is a powerful lesson you've learned from being a writer/illustrator?
It is SUCH a cliche but that's because it is blindingly true: do what you LOVE. That's the only way to stay excited and engaged with a book, which can take quite a while to complete.
Read the rest of this interview at Henry's blog on KidLit, Sci-fi and Fantasy.

Hounslow, London, England
"People don't realize that I had to come from a village in Sri Lanka to get here. So the journey is about the journey itself, not just about doing music."
- M.I.A., on her influences.
The artist-singer M.I.A. (nee Mathangi "Maya" Arulpragasam) became famous on the London club circuit in 2003 with her underground hit single "Galang." She then kept all eyes (and ears) on her with two follow-up singles, "Sunshowers" and "Bucky Done Gun," and her debut album, Arular (2005). She released her second album, Kala, in 2007, which included the hit "Paper Planes," the song that played during the trailer of the film Pineapple Express. M.I.A. also contributed a song, "O Saya" to the Academy Award-nominated film Slumdog Millionaire. "O Saya" received an Oscar nomination for best original song.
M.I.A.'s fame rests on the strength of her two albums and their hit singles "Galang," "Sunshowers," and "Paper Planes." She's solidified her reputation as an innovative artist without seeming to sacrifice her unusual style and independent streak.
M.I.A. BiographyMathangi "Maya" Arulpragasam (a.k.a. M.I.A.) was born in Hounslow, London, England, in 1977. Her parents are Sri Lankan, and when Maya was six months old, the family moved back to their homeland. Maya's father was one of the founding members of Sri Lanka's Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, a guerrilla group fighting for the independence of the country's Tamil minority.
maya arulpragasam becomes m.i.a.As a result, Maya never got to know her father, who only visited his children for a few minutes a year, in the middle of the night. Maya and her brother and sister were told he was their uncle, to protect them from government interrogations.
Maya lived in great poverty with her family, first in Sri Lanka, then in Madras, India, when the violence in Sri Lanka became too dangerous. The family moved back to Sri Lanka, but by the mid-1980s, the fighting had escalated again. After repeated escape attempts, Maya's mother took her children to London, where they were granted refugee status in 1986. They still had next to nothing, but at least they were safe.
m.i.a. moves to britainThe Arulpragasam family settled into a crime-ridden housing project in southwest London, which was fraught with racial tensions. While Maya's mother did piecework stitching medals for the British royal family, Maya herself was introduced to western music for the first time, specifically hip-hop. Although she had excelled academically before she moved to Britain, Maya's lack of knowledge of the English language hindered her schooling and social life until she mastered it.
After high school, Maya enrolled in the prestigious Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, where she studied film and fine arts. She first found success through her art, as she was short-listed for a prize and had a collection of her art published under the title M.I.A. Maya chose the name because of its similarity to her own name, and because "so many of my cousins are missing in action in Sri Lanka," she later explained.
Maya returned to Sri Lanka to make a documentary film, but the experience was unsettling and she abandoned it, accepting instead a commission for another doc from her art-school classmate, electronic shock-rocker Peaches. Peaches introduced Maya to a crude electronic drum machine, on which Maya began to experiment. "I was bored and tried to write a song," she recalls.
m.i.a. releases arularEventually, Maya put together a demo tape, which was discovered by Pulp's Steve Mackey. Along with Ross Orton, Mackey reworked one of the songs on Maya's tape, "Galang," which became an underground hit with British deejays and critics in 2003.
As "M.I.A.," Maya signed with XL Recordings, then got to work on her next single, "Sunshowers," which was released in 2004.
In 2005, she re-released "Galang" in the U.S. and released her debut album, Arular, named as a kind of tribute to her estranged father.
m.i.a. releases kala and the hit track paper planes; makes the 2009 top 99In 2006, M.I.A. recorded her second studio album called Kala, which was released the following year. Mags like Rolling Stone and Blender touted it as one of the best albums of the year. Then, she came out with the hit track "Paper Planes," which was featured on the soundtrack for the comedic flick Pineapple Express (2008). It garnered her a Grammy nod. She also contributed songs to the soundtracks of the hit movie Slumdog Millionaire.
Also that year, in addition to her work in music, M.I.A. dabbled in her other passion -- fashion -- and modeled for Marc Jacobs' Spring/Summer 2008 line.
It paid off -- AskMen.com readers voted for M.I.A. in our 2009 Top 99. She came in at No. 74 on the AskMen.com Top 99 Most Desirable Women list.

RED Founder Jim Jannard Steps Down, Says He's Tired of Criticism
In a "final post" in the REDUSER forum for RED Digital Cinema cameras, Jim Jannard announced today that he is stepping down as "the face" of RED Digital Cinema, the company he founded in 2005.
"I read on CML and other idiotic forums, that I an [sic] a hypester, a scam artist," Jannard writes in reference to Cinematography Mailing List, the mailing list for professional cinematographers founded in 1996 by cinematographer Geoff Boyle. "I just have to wonder what these guys are smoking. But I have to say… they have gotten to me. I don't need this. I don't deserve this. Life is short and I am tired."
In the post Jannard singles out critics, in particular Boyle and director of photography Art Adams, as well as other members of "CML and other idiotic forums."
He also outlines his reasons for founding RED, and delineates what he believes are the company's accomplishments. "My thought was to create a film alternative that actually was the equal or better to film in every aspect," he writes.
According to Jannard, RED president Jarred Land will take over as the public face of the company. "I will now sink into the background, I hope with my reputation intact," Jannard concludes. "I will work on the future of digital cinema… behind the scenes."
Jannard previously founded apparel and eyewear company Oakley, Inc., which he sold in 2007 for more than $2 billion.

Hallmark Channel had a surprise hit last season with Cedar Cove, the TV series based on Debbie Macomber's successful book series. The show is back tonight with a brand-new season, and on Friday we checked in with Brennan Elliott - who stars as the show's sort of antagonist Warren Saget - to get the dish on what's ahead and the transition between seasons.
Charming, powerful, and manipulative, Warren is not about to win any popularity contests in the fictional town of Cedar Cove. So what's it been like for Brennan to inhabit him? "The fan response actually has been overwhelmingly positive. He's a character you either love or love to hate," he said. "It's just one of those characters that it's a joy for an actor to play. I'm having an absolute ball - probably my best experience on a TV show that I've ever had in my career."
When he says that, it really means something, because Brennan is one of those actors who's been all over TV. He had a main role on Lifetime's Strong Medicine, and you've seen him on Cold Case, Castle, Desperate Housewives, House, and CSI, just to name a few of many other series. He also has a role in the upcoming Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb, which is in theaters December 19. He knows the small-screen world very well. Yet the success of Cedar Cove - Hallmark Channel's first original series - still came as a bit of a pleasant surprise.
"For me, I didn't think it was going to be like this," he reflected. "When we did the pilot, we kind of did this little backdoor TV movie that might get picked up as a series. And when it got picked up, we had a lot of growing pains. We had to find our voice. And I think we got into that about [episodes] nine and ten...We all have Twitter accounts, and to see the fans and to see how many people have been dying for July 19, it's great. We love it."
If you're not one of those folks on board yet, though, don't worry. Brennan assured us that you don't have to have seen season one to tune into season two. "If you haven't seen the first season, I will say that it ends [with], there's some crime and some things that have happened. It's kind of left to a cliffhanger as to who did what and what happened and who's involved. It continues throughout the season to some kind of clarity.
"I think season two is our year of showing what Cedar Cove is really about," he continued. "Just the way we're shooting it, and the storylines, and the crossovers with different characters, we're on the rails, so to speak."
Another change between seasons happened behind the scenes, as 7th Heaven veteran Sue Tenney joined the program as its new showrunner. This is something that isn't uncommon in the TV business. But what does that really mean?
"For me as an actor on the show, we had some growing pains in our first season. I think we kind of needed to have someone that gelled everything together," Brennan explained. "She came on and really, it was amazing. Not only is she a brilliant showrunner and also a brilliant writer, she kind of knew what the network really wanted and came in and made an effortless transition."
His character's arc is a prime example of how Cedar Cove has become much more developed this time around. "Last year, Warren was a character that was brought in for a few episodes. He was the bad guy. We didn't know where he was going to go," he continued. "This is his season, where he's a real part of the show. And there's a really nice storyline happening with him and Jack's son...from episode three to the the end of the season."
Of course, when you're part of a cast that also includes the likes of Andie McDowell, Dylan Neal, Bruce Boxleitner, and Barbara Niven, it's hard not to have a good time, really. "It's amazing. These are people that have been around and done everything," Brennan enthused. "I think we've got the best cast in the world. I go to work and I come home and I go 'Um, was that work?' I have such a good time working with them - and I'm the bad guy!"
The new season of Cedar Cove starts tonight at 8 PM ET/PT on Hallmark Channel (check your local listings for specific channel). For more with Brennan, follow him on Twitter (@Brennan_Elliott).

A.M. PRACTICE: 84 degrees, attendance 515
P.M. PRACTICE: Indoors
Right cornerback: Second-year pro Tracy Porter should return to the starting lineup after missing the final 11 games of his rookie season with a dislocated wrist.
He has shown an enticing combination of speed, instincts and confidence for the position. If he continues to mature, he could become a strength.
Veteran Randall Gay fits best as the Saints' nickel back, though he has the versatility to play inside or outside. He is a smart and physical corner who matches up well against bigger receivers.
Jason David is on his ninth life in New Orleans after struggling in the Saints' 17-7 victory in a preseason opener against the Cincinnati Bengals on Friday night at the Superdome.
Undrafted rookie Danny Gorrer has been impressive and is a prime candidate for the practice squad if he can't crack the roster.

Randall Gay | 5-11 | 190 | 6
Jason David | 5-8 | 180 | 6
Danny Gorrer | 6-0 | 185 | R
Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams offered his review of Friday night's performance against Cincinnati: "Short story. We've got a long ways to go, " Williams said. "But I saw some really, really good things in the ballgame."
He was glad to see the defense forcing turnovers and said all three were "created takeaways" and not "give-me takeaways." But he was frustrated that they didn't return them all the way for touchdowns.
One of Williams' favorite moments came during a low point -- when Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco burned David on a short passing route and turned it into a 55-yard gain. Williams said seeing defensive linemen Charles Grant and Tony Hargrove racing down the sideline to catch him and stop him short of the end zone was "special."
"I thought that was a phenomenal culture change of attitude moment for this group of guys when you've got guys doing that, " Williams said. "We don't like those explosive passes, but that was big-time."
Williams also said he was pleased by the performance of some of the younger players in the second half. But there were some negatives, too -- namely too many big passes by the Bengals and poor "situational awareness" on Cincinnati's touchdown drive before halftime.
"That touchdown at the end of the half made me gag, and I had a hard time sleeping, " Williams said. "I'm a bad coach if we can't understand that situation after a timeout."
Williams is high on the Saints' reclamation project, who followed up that play with a third-down sack that kept Cincinnati out of the end zone three plays later.
Hargrove has been lining up as a tackle and end, rotating in with the first-string defense as a tackle in passing situations.
"He's rare, " said Williams, who said Hargrove has physical similarities to a young La'Roi Glover. "We have a 300-pound man that runs like a linebacker. You'll see him in more situations. I hope he continues to play as well as he has."
Porter came back strong Sunday after missing all of last week with a hamstring injury.
He forced a fumble by receiver Marques Colston, and he nearly picked off a pass that he tipped away from Lance Moore.
Porter and Moore batted the ball up to keep it alive before it fell out of bounds.
"I could care less if they're on the same page, quite honestly. They're going to have to catch up to us. We're going to practice our way. There won't be any referees out there, and we'll play them in the parking lot if they want to play in the parking lot. They'd better be ready, because we'll be ready." -- Williams on how he plans to treat this week's practices with the Houston Texans.

When you upgrade an existing 0.6.x installation, release 0.7.0 will use all existing settings and the queue.
Download quota management
For those of you who suffer from ISP imposed limits, SABnzbd can now help you to stay within the limits.
You can set a monthly, weekly or daily quota and SABnzbd will pause when that quota is consumed.
You can also specify the moment when the quota will be reset to 0 again.
Also, whether downloading will resume at that moment or not.
Keep in mind that SABnzbd only measures its own data consumption!
SAB will show the quota usage in the main screen with "Quota left", on the same line as "Remaining" and "Free Space"
See: Config->Switches
Windows Tray menu
SABnzbd will now display an icon in the task bar (system area).
From there you have a few basic functions, making it easier to diagnose and fix some problems.
Multi-platform Growl support
Previous versions only had Growl support for OSX, now also for other platforms.
You can also send Growl messages to other systems.
For more info on Growl, see growl.info.
There's a Growl client for Windows too: www.growlforwindows.com.
Ubuntu's NotifyOSD protocol is supported for Linux platform that have it.
See: Config->Notifications
Pre-download check (Experimental)
If you are hit by frequent incomplete and non-repairable downloads and worry about wasted time, bandwidth or quota, there's the pre-check.
Before downloading, SABnzbd will check if enough articles are available on the server.
Currently the job will pause when the downloadable parts of the rar and par2 files together are less than 100.2% of the actual rar files.
Below that you will need to decide whether you want to take the risk of downloading something unrepairable.
Note that this an experimental feature, with the following issues:
- The pre-download check takes some time, but much less than a (failed) download.
- SABnzbd calculates the balance between missing articles and available par2 file. However it's not possible to make a completely accurate prediction, that's why 100.2% of the net payload should be downloadable.
The "payload" above means that the downloadable amount of RAR and PAR2 files should be at least as much as the required amount of RAR files. Anything below 100% is by definition not repairable.
Unfortunately due to weak design of the NZB format and the fact that Usenet articles and par2 repair blocks do not match, SABnzbd cannot make accurate predictions. That's why pre-check requires at least 100.2%1. Note that the average post has 110% data.
If you turn on this feature (Config->Switches), it will be used for all new jobs that enter the queue. When something in the queue is being pre-checked, the mouse-over will show "Status: Checking". Note that during this phase, the download speed shown by SABnzbd will be low (for example "7 kB/s"), and thus the ETA will be very high. You should ignore the high ETA.
When a pre-download check fails, the job will go to History with a message like "Download would not be successful, only 99.5% available "in red. You can click Retry if you want to download anyway.
See: Config->Switches
Config->Special page
We have a bunch of special settings that were previously only available by editing the sabnzbd.ini file.
There's now a Config->Special page that gives easy access to these settings.
Don't start tweaking this without first reading what a setting does!
See: Config->Special
Limited retries
Until now, SABnzbd had a problem when one of the servers refused to tell whether an article was missing or not.
This could block the queue.
You can now set a maximum number of retries per server, so after trying for some time, SABnzbd will
assume that the article is missing.
See: Config->Switches
New universal Config
By default the three skins Classic, Plush and smpl will have the same look for the Configuration pages.
This the first step to a single skin for SABnzbd, as we no longer want to maintain multiple skins.
If you're not ready for this yet, you can go back to the full skins by switching off Config->Special->uniconfig.
The Config parts of the current skins will not get any new features!
We will retire the current skins at some time in the future.
Small improvements
- Getting NZB files from nzbmatrix, newzbin and other sources should now be more robust. At least SABnzbd will try more often (for ever if appropriate).
- For Usenet servers with multiple IPs per server, SABnzbd will pick a random IP. This supports load balancing done by the server.
- Previously, parts of unneeded par2 files were downloaded. This won't happen any more.
- Jobs in the queue now have a pseudo-priority called "Stop", which will send an unfinished job immediately to post processing. Use carefully!
- Jobs waiting to be post-processed can be deleted from the History. However, not the active job.
- Unrar for Windows and OSX (Lion and SnowLeopard) was upgraded to 4.11
- Email notifications will also be sent when SABnzbd fails to download an NZB from an indexer site
- Lots of small bug fixes
- We likely added some new bugs too :(

Shortbread Petticoat Tails
Yield: 16
Rich, buttery shortbread is a favorite sweet treat during the Christmas season with Scottish roots. By preparing your holiday shortbread in a large round, cut into neat wedges, you'll spare yourself the time and hassle of shaping individual cookies, and gain a lovely way to present your shortbread on the holiday dessert table, or anytime!
Login to add to your Recipe Box
Upload Your Photo
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Granulated sugar for sprinkling
Instructions:In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the butter and stir mixture with a fork until a soft dough forms.
Shape the dough into a ball, then transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead a few times. Pat into a thick disc, then transfer to a piece of parchment paper. Top with an additional sheet of parchment and roll out into a 9-inch circle.
Peel off the top layer of parchment and transfer the dough (plus bottom parchment) to a baking sheet. Poke the dough all over with the tines of a fork, then crimp the edges the way you would a pie crust. Lightly score into 16 wedges with a sharp knife, being careful not to cut all the way through. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
While the dough is chilling, preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Sprinkle the dough with granulated sugar, then bake for 35 minutes or until shortbread is pale golden brown. Rotate the sheet halfway through baking to ensure an even result.
Immediately after removing the shortbread from the oven, cut neatly through the scored lines, separating the shortbread into 16 separate wedges. Gently transfer the parchment to a wire rack to cool completely.

Level up Glitch [TSL]
Hello, I just wanted to ask before trying and seriously busting my game.
In TSL (as you may know) there are a series of glitches which allow you to upgrade your stats up to 25 (and that's the bare minimum of the possibilities) in Peragus, however you need to force the game into leveling up your main character as a second class (for example: you begin as a jedi guardian, perform the glitch and you end up being a jedi guardian lvl 2; jedi consular lvl 1)
Well, the point is, I know how to do this, however I've never managed to understand the problem it leads to when you level up to a prestige class, as the only way to fix this is through a glicth called "The pure breed".
My question:
¿What would be the best way to perform the "pure breed" glitch before reaching level 15 when you begin as a jedi guardian?
I'm not sure if this works but it's posted on GameFAQs:
Level Up Glitch
I hope that helps as it also has other TSL glitches explained.
Okay but...
Thanks, but I've already read that, and it fails to answer my question, as I need someone to give me their solution to this, since the only other jedi guardians you find in game are
so I'm bassically playing through without a prestige class and it's kind of annoying because whenever I talk to Kreia after lvl 15 I need to level up.
I've considered doing this as a jedi centintinel... and failed horribly.
Ok, I made it to lvl 15 and hit a crash, all normal up there... I restarted my game and waited until I went to lvl 16 before speaking to Kreia, this preety much solved the problem, also, I (finally) understood how the whole process works, you build your character with all the bonuses of jedi guardian and jedi consular then you go and get your prestige class, and then you perform the "pure breed" to get any feats and powers you missed as a jedi guardian.
By the end of it you are capable of chopping anyone in your way and still have a decent fight with some enemies.
Thanks for your help.
Not sure what you mean by "pure breeding" but I do this all the time. Level-up glitching has its quirks and its downfalls, but if you know what you're doing, you can pull it off.

Cracked Tooth Syndrome
When a tooth has a partial or complete vertical fracture (up the root), a sometimes confusing collection of symptoms may develop. Usually characterized by pain to biting pressure or to the release of biting pressure, patients are often unable to detect which is the problematic tooth, sometimes describing pain on the entire side of the face when chewing. Cold sensitivity often accompanies these symptoms. Cracked teeth are predictably identified by good diagnostic techniques, and are treated by crowning the offending teeth to protect them and stop the pain-producing flexure around the crack. Anywhere from fifteen to forty percent of cracked teeth will eventually require root canal therapy. A small percentage of profound cracks are hopeless.

Publisher's summaryEdit
The number-one New York Times bestselling Heir to the Empire was the publishing event of the year, the first novel to continue the adventures of Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Han Solo, beyond the events of the most popular trilogy in movie history. Now comes Dark Force Rising, the second volume of a three-book cycle authorized by Lucasfilm Ltd. and written by Hugo Award-winning author Timothy Zahn.
Five years after the events of Return of the Jedi, the fragile Republic that was born with the defeat of Darth Vader, the Emperor, and the infamous Death Star stands threatened from within and without. The dying Empire's most cunning and ruthless warlord—Grand Admiral Thrawn—has taken command of the remnants of the Imperial fleet and launched a massive campaign aimed at the Republic's destruction. With the aid of unimaginable weapons long hidden away by the Emperor on a backwater planet, Thrawn plans to turn the tide of the battle, overwhelm the New Republic, and impose his iron rule throughout the galaxy.
Meanwhile, dissension and personal ambition threaten to tear the Republic apart. As Princess Leia—pregnant with Jedi twins—risks her life to bring a proud and lethal alien race into alliance with the Republic, Han and Lando Calrissian race against time to find proof of treason inside the highest Republic Council—only to discover instead a ghostly fleet of warships that could bring doom to their friends and victory to their enemies.
But most dangerous of all is a new Dark Jedi, risen from the ashes of a shrouded past, consumed by bitterness…and thoroughly, utterly insane. Now he schemes to use his awesome mastery of the Force to summon young Skywalker, allay his misgivings, cunningly enthrall him, and ultimately corrupt him to the Dark Side.
A tale of brilliant spectacle, startling revelations, and tumultuous action, Dark Force Rising moves with the speed of light across a dazzling epic landscape of galactic proportions, from world to world, from adventure to adventure, as Good and Evil clash across the vastness of space "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.…"
The dying Empire's most cunning and ruthless warlord—Grand Admiral Thrawn—has taken command of the remnants of the Imperial fleet and launched a massive campaign aimed at the New Republic's destruction. Meanwhile, Han and Lando Calrissian race against time to find proof of treason inside the highest Republic Council—only to discover instead a ghostly fleet of warships that could bring doom to their friends and victory to their enemies.
Yet most dangerous of all is a new Dark Jedi, risen from the ashes of a shrouded past, consumed by bitterness…and scheming to corrupt Luke Skywalker to the Dark Side.
Plot summaryEdit
Because of the events that led up to the Battle of Sluis Van in the previous novel, lead smuggler Talon Karrde has left his base on Myrkr and is now fleeing from Grand Admiral Thrawn's Imperial forces. Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker meets the insane Joruus C'baoth and agrees to be taught by him on the planet Jomark to further his knowledge of the Force. However, when Karrde is captured by Thrawn, Mara Jade finds that she once again needs the help of Luke, the man she so hates under the belief that he killed her beloved master, Emperor Palpatine, during the Battle of Endor five years earlier. So Mara arrives on Jomark and she and Luke defeat C'boath just as he tries to kill them for taking Luke away from the training, which Luke and Mara both know is psychologically compromised due to C'boath's insanity. The two of them infiltrate Thrawn's Empire and save Karrde.
Meanwhile, in the continuation to find Delta Source, the believed source in the New Republic that is spying for Thrawn, Han Solo and Lando Calrissian try to find evidence at the planet New Cov. At New Cov, it is believed that one of Senator Borsk Fey'lya's advisers is a traitor to the New Republic for Thrawn, and is thus a primary suspect for Delta Source. But before Han, Lando and Luke can find any real evidence to whether or not Fey'lya's adviser is a traitor (Luke was helping Han and Lando out on this mission before he left for C'boath), the three of them soon find out that Thrawn's forces have arrived on the planet. They manage to escape, and Han and Lando are saved by a third party, which takes them to an unknown location where they meet the legendary General Garm bel Iblis, one of the initial members of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Bel Iblis declines to help the New Republic defeat Thrawn on account of personal problems with Chief of State Mon Mothma.
Elsewhere, Leia Organa Solo keeps the promise she made with the Noghri known as Khabarakh back on the planet Kashyyyk in the previous novel and arrives on Khabarakh's devastated home planet of Honoghr. Leia manages to get the entire Noghri race to side with the New Republic against Thrawn by exposing the fact that it was the Empire that devastated Honoghr, not the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
The novel climaxes when the New Republic finds out from Talon Karrde that an old superior of his, Captain Hoffner, exposed the secret of the legendary Katana fleet to Thrawn. This fleet of 200 Dreadnaughts would tip the balance of power decisively in Thrawn's favor over the New Republic. During the battle for the Katana fleet the New Republic manages to destroy some of the cruisers, but Thrawn wins most of them.

Behind the scenesEdit
In the book Mara Jade mentions Darth Vader losing his right hand at the hands of Palpatine after his failure at the Battle of Yavin. However, he originally lost his hand in a duel with Count Dooku in 22 BBY. The reason for this discrepancy is that the book was written several years before the prequel trilogy existed.
However, Vader also lost his right hand to Luke Skywalker's lightsaber in Splinter of the Mind's Eye, published some 14 years prior to Dark Force Rising. It would not be putting sources in conflict to assume that Vader lost his arm in all of these instances; in Splinter of the Mind's Eye, Luke notes that Vader's arm did not bleed as much as he expected (bearing in mind that at that point in Star Wars development, lightsabers did not necessarily cauterize wounds), implying that the arm may have been a prosthetic already due to Anakin's battle with Dooku. Vader also lost his right hand to Luke Skywalker's lightsaber during the Battle of Endor in Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi. Mara Jade may not have known of either of those two incidents when explaining the loss of Vader's hand to Luke, and Luke had simply neglected to mention that he had cut off Vader's hand as well.
The book also states that the Clone Wars were 44 years before it takes place, which would put the Battle of Honoghr at 35 BBY, well before the Clone Wars. The proper time would be 29 years before. The reason given for that mistake is also the fact that the book was written before prequel knowledge had gotten to Zahn.
