Kube, 1996. Before the Storm. But the peace is short-lived. An adventurous Lando must seize a mysterious spacecraft that has weapons of enormous destructive power and an unknown mission. And Leia, a living symbol of the New Republic's triumph, must face down a ruthless leader of the Duskhan League, an arrogant Yevetha who seems bent on a genocidal war that could shatter the fragile unity of the New Republic - and threaten its very survival.

About this product

Product Information

In the blockbuster bestselling tradition of Heir to the Empire comes this thrilling addition to the Star Wars (r) saga, as peace gives way to a new threat... It is a time of tranquillity for the New Republic. The remnants of the Empire now lie in complete disarray, and the reemergence of the Jedi Knights has brought power and prestige to the fledgling government on Coruscant. Yesterday's Rebels have become today's administrators and diplomats, and the factions that fought against imperial tyranny seem united in savoring the fruits of peace. But the peace is short-lived. A restless Luke must journey to his mother's homeworld in a desperate and dangerous quest to find her people. An adventurous Lando must seize a mysterious spacecraft that has weapons of enormous destructive power and an unknown mission. And Leia, a living symbol of the New Republic's triumph, must face down a ruthless leader of the Duskhan League, an arrogant Yevetha who seems bent on a genocidal war that could shatter the fragile unity of the New Republic...and threaten its very survival.

Great value and reading if you are into Star Wars books. I also highly recommend the Thrawn Trilogy by Timothy Zhann and the Bane Triology (Sith Rule of Two).

What a slow book that doesn't follow Character traits!
Star Wars: Before the Storm Before the Storm is the first book of a three book arch called the Black Fleet Crisis. This book was released in softcover format in April of 1996 be Bantam Spectra books. The book, and series, is written by Michael P Kube-McDowell. The book moves too slowly and is simply too inconsistent. Luke Skywalker runs off to become a hermit at Darth Vader's old retreat rejecting his Academy, his family and pretty much everything else. Only a mysterious woman who is able to enter his stronghold induces Luke to leave with promises about his lost mother. The idea that Luke would abandon the academy is insane. He fought so hard to get this established, to just drop it. Well. :P The whole idea about finding his mother's home world was not thought out. This book was released in 1996, 3 years before Phantom Menace. I'm sure that Lucas had already decided much of the background story of Padme. So Lucas should not have let this storyline develop. It does not provide any continuity for the book, and makes the series look bad. Leia is shown much more as the Chief of State, an idea that did have merit, while Han Solo is shown more as the family man. The problem is, is that the story moves so slowly. The characterizations are weak: Princess Leia, the people's leader refuses to learn the names of her bodyguards preferring to ignore their existence. That is totally contrary to Princess Leia. However, some of the actual senatorial scenes are interesting. Nice to see politics portrayed in this manner. Han Solo is done all right but that is because he really has nothing to do. It also does not help that he is captured. The Lando adventure has possibilities but it too drops by the wayside due to just too much non-sensical writing. As a die hard Star Wars fan I even found this book hard to read. The most interesting thing to me was the fact that the New Republic was not going to go off and fight the Empire, yet again. 2/5 Latsyrhc Tamarack Collectibles.Read full review

I bought this book because one of my friends' children collectors everything Star Wars. I know he will enjoy it very much. He will be very thrilled over it.
