5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!!!!, 30 Jun 2004
Ive never been much of a reader but i am however a huge star wars fan so i decided to give these books a read.

Now let me tell you this book is fantastic i liked it so much it made me go out and buy 21 other star wars books. The book takes you into Han Solo's world and if you didnt before you will learn to love him. Before i read this book i was a Luke Skywalker fan but now im turning to Han Solo. The book takes you to a time before the original films and tells a story of love passion and aventure with Han being the hero.

Frankly if you like Star Wars you will love this i promise you and even if you dont like star wars but you just wanna read a good old fashioned adventure story with the girl , the heroine and the bad guy you will definatly definaly love this book.

So go out and buy this book and then buy the other 2 in the series and sit back and enjoy you wont wanna put this down!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars This whole trilogy rocks, 12 Jul 2000
By A Customer
Not only are the stories told excellent but AC Crispin manages to fit it in to the continuity very snugly, involving characters from THE CRYSTAL STAR, DARK EMPIRE and fitting the last novel in with brian daleys novels. Excellent

5.0 out of 5 stars A tremendous listen! Learn the early years of Han Solo..., 25 Sep 1998
By A Customer
This story grabs your attention right from the outset. From the very moment the listener is introduced to the character Han Solo, our favorite blaster-wielding pirate has already gotten himself into dire straits! In this story, author A.C. Crispin has successfully crafted the early-years biography of Han Solo. Reader David Pittu guides the listener through an action-packed chronology of Han's upbringing, his adolescent years, and the evolution of his penchant for the unethical. A must listen for diehard Star Wars fans.
