Thnx to jwash24 who posted as a comment. ShowMeSciFi has now been able to independently verify that indeed Darth Caedus is Jacen Solo’s Sith name.
Jacen’s Sith name was chosen by a contest and follows his long descent into the dark side in the Legacy of the Force series (which is the most awesome Star Wars series in years if not of ALL TIME).
He takes his Sith name in Sacrifice set to come out in just a few weeks, but early copies are all already being leaked by the publisher.
So who does Jacen have to Sacrifice to get his Sith name…i could hardly believe it myself (and if you really want to know just look at the cover of the book and it’s quite obvious)..and i’m actually going to suspend dis-belief if you don’t mind until i get my hands on a copy of Sacrifice on May 29th.
*UPDATE* Got a copy of this on May 28th
Here’s the line you have to wait 367 pages to get too..
“Now was the time for a man who’d once been Jacen Solo to shoulder that responsibility for the galaxy’s sake.
Jacen took off the helmet, looked into his own eyes and didn’t flinch.
“Caedus,” he said. “My name is Darth Caedus.”

[…] we all know the basic spoilers […]
luke will kill jacen and be the invincible one.he wont be sith he’ll be insane dark jedi.they are more dangerous than sith.that would make anakin solo a good guy by becoming krayt.
back to reading
i have a feeling that luke will redeem jacen than kill him and maybe anakin skywalker’s force ghost will appear
Anakin Solo fans, give it up, he’s not coming back. Fact is the comics pretty much spoiled who the character is that returns.. K’khruk, the Wiphid Jedi master from the clone wars rejoins the new jedi order and is a respected teacher and ally of the skywalkers by the time Legacy rolls around, should happen in the books if its gonna happen at all. Makes sense to me that this will be the character that reappears.
It’s gotta be either vergere or callista who comes back. I don’t want it to be someone we know is dead. Both Anakin Solo and Skywalker had there bodies burned.
And, I think it has to be Jaina that takes out Caedus. The whole sword of the Jedi thing needs to come into play soon.
i don’t think jaina is strong enough to take on someone like jacen
jaina will be wounded and luke or ben will use that to turn jacen back. hopefully jacen lives he is making these books really good. before this is over luke or ben will be dark. for a little while .
I’m hoping Caedus really goes after the Jedi and we finally get to see some other masters battle. I have been waiting to see what Kyp Durron can do for a long time. As of now, all we know is he is great pilot. I really wanna see the two of them fight.
As far as Jaina not being strong enough to beat him. She has been trained for over 25 years compared to Luke being trained for a very short time at an older age. And he did pretty well against a Sith lord.
I think the best part of the book is the re-emergence of Mando as a powerhouse in the galaxy. What is Boba’s intent with Jacen? Will he or one within the family take Jacen out….uhhhmmm? I feel that a book with Han and Boba teaming up to take down Jacen is on the way.
Speaking of Han, what was he doing for this whole book. Leia said he was running errands with Lando. I think they were up to something and it’ll be important in the next book. I’ve never seen a book that has one of the main characters removed from all the story lines.
i hope we dont have to wait for another two books to see fett again. is traviss the only one allowed to write about him? thats the one thing i dont like about this series.that and no jaina, if shes seen as weak its only because people are afraid to make a girl the main focus os a sci fi book. dark journey was in the top 8 njo books. give jaina a chance folks.she is the sword of the jedi and if that means what i think then she will be the greatest warrior of them all. luke included.
i know its blasphemy but cmon she has become lukes most trusted accomplice itr seems.it only makes sense that between mara,luke,anakin solo,jacen, kyp,and leia teaching her along the way she would be the best
