Before the marriage of Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo, another suitor threatened to derail their star-crossed romance. . . .

Seeking rich, powerful allies to bring into the Rebel Alliance and a new home planet for the refugees from her native Alderaan, Princess Leia considers a proposal that could tip the balance of power against the evil Empire. The Hapes Consortium of 63 worlds is ruled by the Queen Mother, who wants Leia to marry her son, the dashing and wealthy Prince Isolder.

Han Solo has always dreamed of marrying Leia himself, and now he makes a desperate, final gamble to win her back. Tricking Leia into accompanying him, Han flees with her to the beautiful and untamed planet Dathomir, where he hopes to win her heart.

Fearing the imperious queen’s reaction to Han’s rash move, Luke Skywalker forms an unlikely alliance with Prince Isolder to track down the runaways. Soon Isolder, Luke, and Artoo will be at the center of an adventure leading to an awesome treasure, a group of Force-trained “witches,” and a showdown with an invincible foe.

The excitement of the Star Wars adventure was enhanced by the presence of my favorite characters- Cunning Han Solo, fearless Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker's unwavering determination and courage, C-3PO's intelligent and humorous insights, and R2-D2's steadfast and resourceful nature.

This whole book threw me for a loop in every aspect. I liked it, but i also wish it didn’t exist.

Seeing Leia’s and Hans point of view on certain situations was very frustrating but they’re lovers what do you expect. It was a great build up and shows that we are only human and will do what we feel is right when we’re not always right either. And acting out of love can be more than you can bargain for. I’ve always had a spot for Han Solo and this book was a great read for sure!

Had me glued page by page!

January LaVoy’s best performance yet!! It also helps that the story was written during a time where they cared more about the quality of both the individual story as well as the over arching story of the star wars universe. Unlike the hot mess of garbage that is the majority of the new cannon material, they built the star wars universe from the inside out letting political struggles, ethical issues, etc. form naturally without compromising the star wars story. To many of the new stories try to force the star wars story around the current political “hot topics”. If I want to be reminded of all of the political divisions and stresses we are going through currently there are plenty of other books I can read. When I read/listen to a star wars book I want to be transported to a galaxy far far away. Which in my opinion is one of the key aspects of a good star ways story. That is why I am so glad they are coming out with the EU books as unabridged and narrated by incredible talent such as January LaVoy and Marc Thompson. Keep it up!!!

Refreshingly great!!

A solid eu story that sets the foundation for much of what’s to come. January has a noticeably better performance here than Dawn of the Jedi delivering narration that is perfectly fine to listen too, and shows potential of becoming great in the future.

Great story, improved performance
