New Jedi Order: Edge of Victory 1:Conquest Section by Section breakdown (There are three sections in the book)

Section 1: Praxeum
Luke has brought most of the Jedi to Coruscant to have a meeting concerning how to proceed with the Yuuzhan Vong invasion forces. Kyp Durron is upset at Skywalker being too held back, and storms out in anger despite the efforts of Jaina and Anakin Solo (16 years old.). At the end of the chapter they realize the Vong will probably attack Yavin 4 in order to kill all the Jedi there. As you might know, the Vong said at the end of Balance Point (By Kathy Tyers) that if they gave them all thier Jedi they would stop their invasion here, at Duro.
Anakin Solo (the main character) asks Luke to send a troop of Jedi over there. Luke sends Talon Karrde to rescue the Jedi but Anakin knows that will not be enough. Anakin goes there in his X-Wing and warns Kam Solusar that the Peace Brigade will be attacking shortly. Kam takes all the Jedi children back to a secret cave to hide. Anakin stays at the temple with 12 year old Valin Horn (Corran Horn's son), Jedi Master Ikrit and Anakin's best friend, Tahiri (she is only 14). Anakin and Tahiri hold them off while Ikrit and Valin steal a Peace Brigade ship. The have a captive named Vahn, who owns the ship. Then the Vong show up to assist the Peace Brigade. They shoot down the stolen ship and Anakin crash lands. However, during the brief battle, Ikrit had jumped out of the ship to attract incoming blasterfire. He died, then Tahiri went after, refusing to believe he was dead. The Vong capture Tahiri and Anakin vows to find her.
Meanwhile, Talon Karrde shows up and rescues Kam and his young (all under 20) Jedi students. But just as Karrde is about to leave the system several Vong ships show up and prevent him from leaving..........................................................

Section 2: Shapers and Shamed Ones

Anakin makes a makeshift landspeeder and cruises across Yavin, dodging Vong patrol ships. He is finallly shot after his lightsber brakes. However, a renegade Vong saves him from certain capture. They then move on through Yavin to the Vong base. Meanwhile, Talon Karrde is trapped in system and has sent the Jedi children to saftey. He now is looking for a way to get onto the planet and rescue Valin and Anakin. However, when Anakin left, he told Vahn to go with a old hermit Anakin knew to get Valin off-planet and back to saftey.................................

The Renegade Vong called Rua and Anakin infiltrate the base undercover. However they are discovered and they flee underground. Anakin repairs his lightsaber and they return to the Vong base and find where Tahiri is hidden.

This is an excellent book. I suggest you buy it. In the USA it is only 6.99.
