History

First publication: Bantam Spectra, June 1991

Review

Definitely captures the feel of Star Wars and brings back all of the major characters. Zahn does a good job at keeping those characters feeling the same. The new menace to them is a powerful one and the adventures in this book are exciting. The book keeps moving along well. The reading is easy and will work well for younger readers, but there is plenty for an adult to love. But if this wasn’t a Star Wars book, it would at best be a good, enjoyable space opera story, but not notable.
