They were written by Christie Golden and published from 2007 to 2009.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Archaeologist Jake Ramsey is called away from a dig at the behest of Valerian Mengsk, Crown Prince of the Terran Dominion, who wants him to investigate the ruins of a Xel'Naga temple of the same type the Dominion previously encountered in Shadow Of The Xel'Naga. Paired up with hardened mercenary Rosemary Dahl as his bodyguard, Jake and his team set to work. Deep inside the ruin, though, Jake discovers the body of a protoss archivist named Zamara, stuck in suspended animation at the edge of death for decades. In her desperation to live, she transfers herself into his body. Wanting the information Zamara possesses, the Dominion turns on Jake, forcing him and Rosemary into flight for their lives, while Zamara begins to show to Jake the stories of how the protoss came to be what they are now. Worse yet, they attract the attention of Sarah Kerrigan, the Zerg Queen of Blades, and the insane dark archon Ulrezaj.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The story of the trilogy was written alongside that of StarCraft II.Books in the trilogy: Firstborn (2007) Shadow Hunters (2007) Twilight (2009)

Bittersweet Ending: The Dominion stops pursuing Jake and Rosemary, who have become an Official Couple, but only because Devon Starke sacrifices himself to Mengsk's torturers to save their lives. Ulrezaj is defeated by Zamara sealing herself into a khaydarin crystal with him, rendering her knowledge of protoss history largely lost for good.

Ulrezaj from the first game's optional Enslavers II campaign is one of the Big Bad Ensemble, and Zamara is found in a Xel'Naga construct like the one in Shadow Of The Xel'Naga. We're also introduced through Zamara's memories to such protoss luminaries as Khas (founder of the Khala), Adun (savior of the dark templar), and a young Matriarch Raszagal, who (aside from Raszagal, who appears in Brood War's protoss and zerg campaigns) had previously only been alluded to.

Zeratul talks about the hybrid he saw in the Brood War secret mission "Dark Origin" as part of a conversation regarding the Dark Secret that got Zamara killed.
