This story outlines Solo’s background well, while also positioning him for his role in the original trilogy. Reluctantly heroic, Solo is repeatedly punished for doing the right thing, building up that veneer of cynicism we encounter in A New Hope. It can be hard to read at times for all the right reasons.
Additionally, the story sets up Lando, Jabba, Chewie, and Boba Fett. While also introducing some well-written original characters.
I warmly recommend the trilogy to any Star Wars fan.… (mer)
