Publisher summary
If you've ever heard of the Knights of the Old Republic video games and comics but didn't know where to start—this is it!

Opening crawl
It is a new day in the Mandalorian Wars. For most of a year,
the rampaging armored nomads have dealt the Republic Navy one stinging defeat after another. But now, the Republic's fondest wish has been granted: the Jedi have entered the war.
Attracted by the charismatic leader Revan, many Jedi Knights defy the Jedi Council's preferred neutrality and volunteer to serve aboard Republic vessels as advisers. Their peaceful role is a sham. They intend to fight alongside the Navy and its affiliated ground forces—and fight they do.
The crusaders make an impact first in the Outer Rim, successfully helping the Republic's nonmember allies root out Mandalorian strongholds. Now, on Essien, they mean to do so again, leading forces from the Phaeda Militia—a militia that happens to include an unlucky young draftee who truly does prefer peace to war…WAR
