[IMG]http://img387.imageshack.us/img387/8936/repubiccommando01hardcopl0.jpg[/IMG]

Star Wars: Republic Commando: Hard Contact is a tie-in novel to the video game Star Wars: Republic Commando. It was written by Karen Traviss. It tells the story of a squad of clone commandos on a mission to destroy a Separatist bioweapons lab. The commandos (Niner, Fi, Atin, and Darman) are aided by the Gurlanins Jinart and Valaqil, along with an inexperienced Padawan named Etain Tur-Mukan.

Publisher's summary

As the Clone Wars rage, victory or defeat lies in the hands of elite squads that take on the toughest assignments in the galaxy,stone-cold soldiers who go where no one else would, to do what no one else could. 

On a mission to sabotage a nanovirus research facility on a Separatist-held planet, four clone troopers operate under the very noses of their enemies. The commandos are outnumbered and outgunned, deep behind enemy lines with no backup and working with strangers instead of trusted teammates. Matters don't improve when Darman, the squad's demolitions expert, gets cut off from the others during planetfall. Even Darman's apparent good luck in meeting a Jedi Padawan vanishes once she admits to her woeful inexperience. 

For the isolated clone commandos and stranded Jedi, a long, dangerous journey lies ahead, through hostile territory brimming with Trandoshan slavers, Separatists , and suspicious natives. A single misstep could mean discovery and death. It's a virtual suicide mission for anyone except Republic Commandos.


Star Wars Republic Commando #2 - Triple Zero

Star Wars: Republic Commando: Triple Zero is a novel written by Karen Traviss and set one year after the Battle of Geonosis. It tells the story of Omega Squad, Delta Squad, a unit of Null ARC troopers, and their Jedi Generals Etain Tur-Mukan and Bardan Jusik as they pursue a Separatist terror group along the skylanes and underworld of Coruscant, known to clone troopers as Triple Zero for its galactic chart coordinates.

Publisher's summary

Following the eruption of the bloody Clone Wars at the battle of Geonosis, both sides remain deadlocked in a stalemate that can be broken only by elite warrior teams like Omega Squad, clone commandos with terrifying combat skills and a lethal arsenal. 

For Omega Squad, deployed deep behind enemy lines, it's the same old special ops grind: sabotage, espionage, ambush, and assassination. But when Omega Squad is rushed to Coruscant, the war's most dangerous new hotspot, the commandos discover they're not the only ones penetrating the heart of the enemy. 

A surge in Separatist attacks has been traced to a network of Sep terror cells in the Republic's capital, masterminded by a mole in Command Headquarters. To identify and destroy a Separatist spy and terror network in a city full of civilians will require special talents and skills. Not even the leadership of Jedi generals, along with the assistance of Delta squad and a certain notorious ARC trooper, can even the odds against the Republic Commandos. And while success may not bring victory in the Clone Wars, failure means certain defeat.

In the Grand Army's desperate fight to crush the Separatists, the secret special ops missions of its elite clone warriors have never been more critical or more dangerous. A growing menace threatens Republic victory, and the members of Omega Squad make a shocking discovery that shakes their loyalty. 

As the lines continue to blur between friend and enemy, citizens from civilians and sergeants to Jedi and generals find themselves up against a new foe: the doubt in their own hearts and minds. The truth is a fragile, shifting illusion and only the approaching inferno will reveal both sides in their true colors.
