Description
Book SynopsisNebula and Hugo Award nominees Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck--writing as
James S. A. Corey--make their Star Wars debut in this old school, action-packed,
Space Opera epic. This brand-new, classic adventure stars the irrepressible Han
Solo and his new friends, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa, just after the
destruction of the Death Star in Star Wars: Episode VI A New Hope!
When a rebel spy needs extraction from under the nose of the Empire, who better to
send than master smuggler, Han Solo? But rescuing a friendly spy is just the start of a
wild adventure as the intel the spy uncovers leads Han and Leia to an ancient and
deadly secret that threatens to be the Empire''s ultimate--and likely successful--weapon
against the Rebel Alliance. Add in the chance to lose Luke Skywalker to this horrific
threat, and Han and Chewbacca may have finally met a trap even they can''t escape...
Trade ReviewEvery
Star Wars fan should own the book * SciFi Now *
The pacing of the novel is masterful and the authors have managed to combine action, drama and humour wonderfully. The style of writing is so descriptive, so vivid and so alive that you forget that you’re reading printed words on paper thanks to the images that are conjured in your mind. Han’s dialogue is particularly witty, and the writing mimics his tone perfectly. * Star Wars Aficiondado *
A highly enjoyable
Star Wars tale. 9/10 * Sci-Fi Bulletin *
