Synopsis:
Merciless attacks by an invincible alien force have left
the New Republic reeling. Dozens of worlds have
succumbed to occupation or annihilation, and even the
Jedi Knights have tasted defeat. In these darkest of
times, the noble Chewbacca is laid to rest, having died
as heroically as he lived and a grief stricken Han Solo
is left to fit the pieces of his shattered life back
together before he loses everything: friends, family,
and faith.
Refusing help from Leia or Luke, Han becomes the loner
he once was, seeking to escape the pain of his partner's
death in adventure and revenge. When he learns that an
old friend from his smuggling days is operating as a
mercenary for the enemy, he sets out to expose the
traitor. But Han's investigation uncovers an even
greater evil: a sinister conspiracy aimed at the very
heart of the New Republic's will and ability to fight:
the Jedi.
Now Han must face down his inner demons and, with the
help of a new and unexpected ally, honour Chewbacca's
sacrifice in the only way that matters, by being worthy
of it.
