Dark Apprentice is the second novel in the '' The Jedi Academy Trilogy '' by Kevin J. Anderson ; many of the events of this novel are also described from the perspective of Corran Horn in '' I, Jedi ''. SUMMARY Kyp Durron begins his Jedi training with Luke Skywalker during this story, but first, he is being treated to the time of his life by Han Solo. Han felt that because Kyp had been in the mines most of his entire life, that he deserved to have a little fun. When he does get to the Jedi Praxeum, he starts learning the ways of the light side of the Force, astonishing all the other students with his extraordinary talent and his aptitude for Force-training; unfortunately, he also starts learning of the dark side of the Force after Gantoris ' death (Gantoris had been corrupted by the spirit of Exar Kun , but turned against him; in revenge, Exar Kun burned Gantoris alive). Exar Kun's spirit began tempting Kyp. Kyp's power increases considerably, and he is tainted by the dark side and the lies Kun told him of the history of the Jedi Order. After a violent disagreement with Tionne over ancient history (involving the fall of Exar Kun), Kyp assaulted Skywalker; with the dark aid of Kun, Kyp ripped Luke's soul from his body, placing him into a coma. With his strength in the Force, Kyp reached out and guided the Sun Crusher from the heart of the gas giant, Yavin , and set out on a mission of vengeance against Admiral Daala and the Imperial Remnant . He knows that his brother, Zeth Durron, is still part of the Empire and he sets course for Carida , intending to rescue him by force if need be. EXTERNAL LINKS
