Product Description

Product Description

In the dusty heat of twin-sunned Tatooine lives the wealthiest gangster in a hundred worlds, master of a vast crime empire and keeper of a vicious, flesh-eating monster for entertainment (and disposal of his enemies). Bloated and sinister, Jabba the Hutt might have made a good joke -- if he weren't so dangerous. A cast of soldiers, spies, assassins, scoundrels, bounty hunters, and pleasure seekers have come to his palace, and every visitor to Jabba's grand abode has a story. Some of them may even live to tell it. . . .

Featuring original stories by: Kevin J. Anderson, M. Shayne Bell, John Gregory Betancourt, Mark Budz and Marina Fitch, A.C. Crispin, Dan'l Danehy-Oakes, George Alec Effinger, Kenneth C. Flint, Esther Friesner, Barbara Hambly, Daryl F. Mallett, J.D. Montgomery, Judy and Gar Reeves-Stevens, Jennifer Roberson, Kathy Tyers, Deborah Wheeler, Dave Wolverton, William F. Wu, Timothy Zahn. 

Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!

Synopsis

Best book ever! 23 Jun 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is seriously one of the best books ever! It is cleverly written, and you see the same story but from different points of view from characters within Jabba's Palace. It is well worth reading, and for how cheap it is, there's really nothing to loose.

One of my favourite books of all time!

A good anthology. I liked the tales of Boba Fett, Oola, the Weequays, and Salacious Crumb. But the other stories were just Star Wars mishmash. The epilogue was cool.

Brilliant.... BUY THIS BOOK NOW!!!!!! my fave tale is Boba Fetts, it is about 10 times better than all the others, i love that bit right at the start of his tale when he kills his rival bounty hunter, it really takes you to his ship.

Great Book- But Where Is Jabba's Tale?
Everyone Has A Tale- except Jabba. The only disapointment other than that is Boba's tale. I like Bubo's tale, especially siince I didn't even know he was intelligent. Read more

Average material with occassional flashes of brilliance
This book isn't particularly inspired as far as fiction goes. It's typical sci-fi fare with too many heroes and typical villains and those odd in-between characters. Read more

One plot, more than 15 stories
Great narration, the writing is very consistent and each and every tale is tightly fit within the others, that may be a problem though, because every story has the same plot in it... Read more
