No they're not. They're written by publishers and random dudes, not actual star wars emplyees. They're as canon as the cover illustrations.

That blurb could be written by James Luceno though...

It's not. Ant emailed Drew Karpyshan and he said that they get the blurbs done independently. Besides, if you listen to them, then apparently Thrawn is a bigger threat than Sidious himself.

Drew says those are "someone in marketing just trying to sell the book."

Everything with a Star Wars name branded on it and approved by Lucasfilm is canon. Or at least, Legends.

Authors and the producers behind them also have to approve the cover art and blurbs....

Sidious place can be questioned because there is no definitive power level, and because he has no entry in TOR handbook/dictionary/guidebook/bible.

Vitiate have many entries including "imminent destructive force of insurmountable darkness", and destroy strike team of Jedi order's finest.

That doesn't mean they wrote it. Lucas approved for TOR, that does not mean TOR is his work.

Blurbs sometimes contradict the very book they are advertising.... There is absolutely no reason to take them as factual.
