About this Item

CHRISTOPHER, Adam. Star Wars: Master of Evil. [London/New York]: Penguin Random House / Inkstone Books, 2025. Inkstone Books signed special edition of the first UK edition, first printing; one of 750 unnumbered copies. Octavo; publisher?s hardcover binding with case foiling, designed fore-edge, and sprayed edges. Signed by Adam Christopher.
Condition: As new. A pristine, unread copy of this sold-out Inkstone special edition, retaining the designed fore-edge, sprayed edges, and publisher?s foiled case finish.

Synopsis: Set in the aftermath of Emperor Palpatine?s rise to power, Master of Evil follows Darth Vader as he begins to transform from fallen Jedi into Imperial myth. Haunted by the promises of the dark side and obsessed with the possibility of conquering death, Vader undertakes a ritual on Mustafar to bleed a kyber crystal and forge his red lightsaber. The vision that follows drives him across the galaxy in pursuit of rumors of a Force wielder who can raise the dead, even as Palpatine?s motives and Vader?s own unresolved past draw him deeper into darkness.

Note: Christopher?s Master of Evil expands the early Imperial-era mythology of Darth Vader, focusing on the Sith ritual, grief, ambition, and obsession that shape his identity after Revenge of the Sith. The Inkstone Books special issue, limited to 750 unnumbered signed copies and enhanced with designed edges, sprayed edges, and case foiling, offers a striking collector?s presentation of a modern Star Wars canon novel.
