About this listen
Times are desperate for the Rebel Alliance. Harassment by the Empire and a shortage of vital supplies are hindering completion of a new secret base on the ice planet Hoth. So when Mid Rim merchants offer much-needed materials for sale, Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo lead an Alliance delegation to negotiate a deal.
But when treachery forces the rebel ship to flee into territory controlled by pirates, Leia makes a shocking discovery: The fierce marauders come from Leia’s homeworld of Alderaan, recently destroyed by the Death Star. These refugees have turned to pillaging and plundering to survive - and they are in debt to a pirate armada, which will gladly ransom the princess to the vengeful Empire...if they find out her true identity.
Struggling with intense feelings of guilt, loyalty, and betrayal, Leia is determined to help her wayward kinspeople, even as Imperial forces are closing in on her own crippled ship. Trapped between lethal cutthroats and brutal oppressors, Leia and Han, along with Luke, Chewbacca, and a battle-ready crew, must defy death - or embrace it - to keep the rebellion alive.

Folken? Millennium Folken!?
The story was quite short and ok, if you’re nostalgic for some old time Star Wars.
A book written from Leia’s perspective is refreshing.

Was really looking forward to a Leia focused story
This book feels like a Saturday morning cartoon stretched out across too many pages of a book.
It has your favourite characters getting in trouble just for the issue to be resolved with no impact on the franchise at large and no character development.
It had some interesting ideas at first but i ultimately found the story to be very basic and predictable. Making the part when the characters spelled it out for the reader just unbearable.
I also had issues differentiating the characters from each other as the impressions and voices sounded similar, especially the side characters. Though the narration itself was good and I liked the sound of their voice.
Its painfully average compared to most SW books and I'm almost thru them all.
Would also like to note that while this book is classed as Legends, theres absolutely nothing stopping it from being canon because it comes and goes without leaving an impression. Spend your token on something else.

Dull
I found this book to be very dull. Even after the third chapter I found it to be very dull and boring. only two of the main Star Wars characters were really mentioned in it, and none of the characters voices sounded correct they were all completely wrong. For a true Star Wars fan I would not recommend this book.
