Synopsis:
Luke Skywalker and the ragtag rebel band opposing
the Galactic Empire are fresh off their biggest victory
yet - the destruction of the massive Death Star. But the
Empire's not toppled yet! Join Luke, Princess Leia, Han
Solo, Chewbacca, C-3PO, R2-D2 and the rest of the Rebel
Alliance as they fight for freedom against the evil of
Darth Vader and his master, the Emperor! But when a
Rebel assault goes very wrong, Han and Leia will have to
think fast to make their escape...while Luke finds
himself faceto-face with Darth Vader! In the
explosive aftermath, a humbled Luke returns to Tatooine
to learn more about his mentor Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Meanwhile, Leia and Han undertake a vital - and
dangerous -secret mission...but can they succeed without
Luke? |

Review by Darth Kondorr, Poland,
2017: |

"This
book did for me what
Shadows of the
Empire did for me all those years ago. It brought all those
heroes and iconic villains back, while maintaining a cohesiveness,
the right tempo and the perfect vibe. The story draws you
immediately in and won’t let go till the very end, at which point
you’ll crave the next issues. My only problem with this book is,
when I detach my emotional self from it and look at it purely
objective, then I see that this one is a bit too full of special
events and over the top successes. It all starts with the biggest
weapons factory (they could have gone with one of the top five, but
NO, it had to be THE biggest one). Within the first six issues Luke
encounters and manages to survive not one, but TWO of this time
periods biggest baddies. The second encounter could really have
waited a few more issues, but I understand this helped sell the
books back then. Obviously very divisive is the reveal of the
identity of one dark skinned female at the end, that might be part
of that young Han Solo movie in the future. Emotionally speaking
the book is a delight, but sometimes it goes to the point of guilty
pleasure… but it is pleasure after all! And it is so much better
than that Brian Wood series..."
