Path of Destruction: Star Wars Legends (Darth Bane) by Drew Karpyshyn

This essential Star Wars Legends novel is the first in a trilogy chronicling the rise of the fearsome Sith lord Darth Bane.
 
"A solid space adventure [that] charts the evolution of an antihero almost as chilling as Darth Vader."--Publishers Weekly

On the run from vengeful Republic forces, Dessel, a cortosis miner, vanishes into the ranks of the Sith army and ships out to join the bloody war against the Republic and its Jedi champions. There Dessel's brutality, cunning, and exceptional command of the Force swiftly win him renown as a warrior. But in the eyes of his watchful masters, a far greater destiny awaits him.

As an acolyte in the Sith academy, studying the secrets and skills of the dark side, Dessel embraces his new identity: Bane. But the true test is yet to come. In order to gain acceptance into the Brotherhood of Darkness, he must defy the most sacred traditions and reject all he has been taught. It is a trial by fire in which he must surrender fully to the dark side--and forge from the ashes a new era of absolute power.

Drew Karpyshyn is the author of Children of Fire, as well as the Star Wars: The Old Republic novels Revan and Annihilation and the Star Wars: Darth Bane trilogy: Road of Destruction, Rule of Two, and Dynasty of Evil. He also worked as a writer/designer on a number of award-winning videogames and penned the acclaimed Mass Effect series of novels. He spent much of his childhood in Canada, but became bored of the long, bitter winters and moved south in quest of a climate that would allow him to play golf year-round. Drew Karpyshyn now resides in Texas with his wife, Jennifer, and a slew of four-legged friends.
