Publisher's Summary

Here is the second novel in the blockbuster trilogy that reveals 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.

Solo is now a fugitive from the Imperial Navy. But he has made a valuable friend in a former Wookiee slave named Chewbacca, who has sworn Han a life debt. Han will need all the help he can get. For the Ylesian Hutts have dispatched the dreaded bounty hunter Boba Fett to track down the man who already outsmarted them once.

But Han and Chewie find themselves in even bigger trouble when they agree to lend their services to the crime lords Jiliac and Jabba the Hutt. Suddenly the two smugglers are thrust into the middle of a battle between the might of the Empire and the treachery of their outlaw allies - a battle where even victory means death!

On a 2021 journey from the East Coast to the Outer Rim, one Audible editor and Star Wars superfan saw all of her wildest, most interstellar dreams become reality.

Learn the pronunciation

It was hard to listen at some points because he was pronouncing some of the names and planets wrong.

awesome but...

Love this story, and wish Lucas arts would make a live action version. Really needs an unabridged version... I'd be more than happy to record an unabridged version for all three books, with help...

too abridged

I love the Han Solo trilogy. I wish these books were unabridged. So much of the story's depth is lost when paragraphs and pages are omitted.

Getting better

I'm hoping the FINAL BOOK (not this one but the 3rd installment) gets us up to where Han Solo....well, I don't want to ruin it. But I'd like to see him do the Kessle run in less than 12 parsecs. 😜

Hack job? Or mistep?

Taking a good series in Star Wars and hacking it up in Audible and making it 3 hours really. I will pay for full audio for the series.

Not as good as the first one, but enjoyable.

Yes it’s abridged, but it’s still enjoyable. Think of it like an audio drama. I would love to see it rereleased by in unabridged format.

Another great book about Han

The story is quite interesting albeit short. However, the performance was superb. Using great Star Wars sound effects and sounds it makes this story a joy to listen!

Up there as the quintessential source book for Han Solo fans. Learn how the Hutt rose to power and how Han Solo had part in it.

What other book might you compare Star Wars to, and why?

Any in the Han Solo Trilogy

What about David Pittu’s performance did you like?

Great. Very entertaining and a good character actor.

Strengthened my interest in Han Solo as a scoundrel with a compassionate heart.
