Star Wars: Red Harvest by Joe Schreiber

Extended Synopsis

Set during the dark and dangerous era of the Old Republic, Star Wars: Red Harvest reveals a time when Jedi Knights valiantly battle the ruthless armies of the Sith Lords. At the center of this galactic conflict is Darth Scabrous, a Sith Master driven by a fanatical dream of ultimate power and immortality. To fulfill his twisted vision, he requires a specific catalyst: a rare black orchid nurtured by a young Jedi named Hestizo Trace, whose unique connection to the Force manifests as an extraordinary gift with plant life.

When an emissary violently shatters Hestizo's quiet existence within the Jedi Agricultural Corps, the final ingredient for an ancient Sith formula falls into dark hands. The resulting concoction births a virus that is far worse than fatal—it transforms its victims. As the rotting, bloodthirsty dead begin to rise, both Jedi and Sith find themselves facing a ravenous nightmare that threatens to consume all living things. This narrative seamlessly blends the epic scope of Star Wars with visceral survival horror.
