This book takes place approximately 40 years after the events in the movie "Star Wars, A New Hope" and expands on the lives and stories of some of the main, and not so main but well loved, characters in the movies.
Han Solo (smuggler, scruffy looking nerf-herder, scoundrel, and old pirate) and Princess Leia Organa (daughter of Darth Vader, adopted princess of Alderaan, and sister to Luke Skywalker) have settled down and had 3 children, twins: Jacen and Jaina, and Anakin, who died in a battle during the Yuuzhan Vong War. (the 2 surviving are in this book)
Luke Skywalker (son of Darth Vader, Jedi, and brother to Leia) who has also settled down, with Mara Jade (former assassin and smuggler for the Emperor himself turned good after going rogue due to her masters death) has also had a child, Ben Skywalker (Jedi apprentice under Jacen Solo)
You learn that before becoming the galaxy's most feared and respected Bounty hunger, Boba Fett (Mandalorian warrior and bounty hunter, cloned son of Jango Fett, and foe to Han Solo) had married Sintas Vel (a female Kiffar from the planet Kiffu, who became a bounty hunter at a young age) and had a daughter named Ailyn Vel but was forced to abandon his wife and child after a conflict with his superior officer. Now, plagued by his ailing health, Fett goes on the hunt for the one being that can help and during what might be his last hunt, he meets his granddaughter, Mirta Gev and learns things about himself that don't fit with even his own view of himself.
So many Mandolorians submitted by wampishing on July 22, 2013, 12:48am Karen Traviss loves Mandalorians waaaay more than I do, and it makes her Star Wars books difficult for me to read. My interest in Boba Fett and the like tends to run dry long before she stops talking about them.
