Summary

Han Solo, Leia Organa Solo, and Luke Skywalker return in an all-new Star Wars adventure, which will challenge them in ways they never expected - and forever alter their understanding of life and the Force.

When Han and Leia Solo arrive at Lando Calrissian’s Outer Rim mining operation to help him thwart a hostile takeover, their aim is just to even up the odds and lay down the law. Then monstrous aliens arrive with a message, and mere threats escalate into violent sabotage with mass fatalities. When the dust settles, what began as corporate warfare becomes a battle with much higher stakes - and far deadlier consequences.

Now Han, Leia, and Luke team up once again in a quest to defeat a dangerous adversary bent on galaxy-wide domination. Only this time, the Empire is not the enemy. It is a pair of ruthless geniuses with a lethal ally and a lifelong vendetta against Han Solo. And when the murderous duo gets the drop on Han, he finds himself outgunned in the fight of his life. To save him, and the galaxy, Luke and Leia must brave a gauntlet of treachery, terrorism, and the untold power of an enigmatic artifact capable of bending space, time, and even the Force itself into an apocalyptic nightmare.

Great but sad finale

Good little book, clearly setting up more but cut short. A farewell to the fans.

A good story

Avoid story but the more and more Star Wars books I listen too the more I realise what garbage episodes 7, 8 and 9 the movies are.

A flawed but well meaning finale to the Classic EU

I originally was going to skip this after finishing the FOTJ series but with the drama around the Rise Of Skywalker film I chose to get this instead.

Marc Thompson as always is the best part of the Star Wars audiobooks and he still gave it his all to the very end.

Yes, I do agree that the story isn't the best we got from Troy Denning especially in comparison to his other books but given that he had to rush this after his Jaina Solo trilogy was cancelled by Disney, he probably did the best he could on short notice.

Overall, a nice swansong for the original trio of heroes. Not the best, not the worst, take it for what it is, especially since there was nore love and care in these books than Disney or J. J. Abrams put into any of their Star Wars stuff.

Here's hoping we get more Star Wars Legends stuff in the future.

Long Winded

Good story but found it to be a bit long winded. Took a while to get into the plot. I felt as if each chapter was too long.
