He was a child without a past, a Corellian street urchin, abandoned, foraging for scraps of food, when the cruel Garris Shrike whisked him away to join a nomadic band of space-faring criminals. Now, years later, chafing under Shrike's sadistic tyranny, driven by dreams of adventure and glory, Han fights his way free. His goal: to become an Imperial Navy pilot. But first he needs hands-on experience flying spacecraft, and for that he takes a job on the planet Ylesia.

Han Solo should be basking in his moment of glory. After all, the cocky smuggler and captain of the Millennium Falcon just played a key role in the daring raid that destroyed the Death Star and landed the first serious blow to the Empire in its war against the Rebel Alliance. But after losing the reward his heroics earned him, Han's got nothing to celebrate. Especially since he's deep in debt to the ruthless crime lord Jabba the Hutt. There's a bounty on Han's head - and if he can't cough up the credits, he'll surely pay with his hide. The only thing that can save him is a king's ransom. Or maybe a gangster's fortune?

Publisher's Summary
Here is the explosive conclusion of the blockbuster trilogy that chronicles the never-before-told story of the young Han Solo. Set before the Star Wars movie adventures, these books chronicle the coming of age of the galaxy's most famous con man, smuggler, and thief.
The Millennium Falcon is "the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy". So when Han Solo wins it in a game of sabacc, he and Chewbacca become kings of the smugglers: uncatchable, unstoppable. But with the Empire clamping down, Han knows his luck can't last. Still, when an old girlfriend who is now the leader of an insurgent Rebel group offers him a shot at an incredible fortune, Han can't resist. The plan seems a sure thing. The resistance will be light and the take enormous. Han and his friends will divide it equally with the Rebels.
Too bad for Han that the planet Ylesia is far from a pushover, that the Rebels have an agenda of their own, and that smuggler friends can often turn into enemies...quicker than light speed.

Ok I get that some people don't have time to listen to a 16 or so hour audiobook, but it's really annoying when you can only figure out that its abridged at the very end of the third book! I want my money back for paying for something I didn't want abridged!

no
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of David Pittu?
yes
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Star Wars?
none
Any additional comments?
I would really like my money back. Just awful.

Disney is killing Star Wars
Whatever Disney is doing to the franchise they need to stop! This book series is how the movie should have been. Why did Disney get rid of the Bria character she was really important to the entire Star Wars timeline. Also why weren't the Hutts in the movie another big miss for Disney. This book has Saved Star Wars for me!!!!

This book is a perfect background of Han Solo and the best of the three. It explains his inability to love a woman, as well as his background with Jabba the Hut and Lando. And it brings you right up to...."the old man and the farmer boy in the cantina."

Good story and book
My first thing I wanna say is I do nit like this reader. The way he says sabacc is not how the movies say jt or other readers. And there’s a couple other things that he doesn’t say right and says a lot. Like palpat”i”ne. It gets super annoying. Over all the book has a great story line and I wish it wasn’t abridged

The real story behind Han Solo
As always pick up the Kindle or the paperback or this book first. It’s 100 times better. However I’m legally blind and am a dyed in wool Legends fan. So rather than hate I view these as mini audio movies of books I love. It’s 2020. We are sadly probably not going to see an unabridged Legends. So don’t hate. Hit the light. And turn on book 3 of Han Solo’s background. With music and sound effects it’s great. A note on the narration. A lot of the words that are mispronounced, or not miss pronounced in this book. They were only written words until the prequels. How does one even say Kashyyk or Coruscant? Even Palpatine was a written word. He was only The Emperor in OTC. These books came out in the 80s. Lucas used Legends to enrich his universe.

Conclusion to trilogy that is a good back story to central character
Conclusion to trilogy that is a good back story to central character though the trilogy lacked some of the traditional wit and humour that we have come to expect from Han Solo. Nonetheless a satisfying end to the trilogy

Too Abridged
Unfortunate as a big fan of these books I was hoping to listen to the full fantastic back story of Han Solo but instead was met with so much abridgement it's ruined a lot of the essence of what made these books great. Whilst the voice acting and sound effects were great for an audio book I was left overall disappointed due to the omission of so many important story moments and details.
I recommend you read the books before listening to these.

Han Solo wins the Millenium Falcon in sabbac
Where does Star Wars rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
3rd book in the Han Solo trilogy. Links all the years right up to just before Luke and Obi Wan meet in the cantina on Tatooine.
What did you like best about this story?
The interaction levels between Han's best friend Chewbacca and Lando. Putting the Millenium Falcon through it's paces and performing upgrades and successful smuggling runs and skirmishes.
What does David Pittu bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Character acting
