About this listen

Before the marriage of Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo, another suitor threatened to derail their star-crossed romance. . . .

Seeking rich, powerful allies to bring into the Rebel Alliance and a new home planet for the refugees from her native Alderaan, Princess Leia considers a proposal that could tip the balance of power against the evil Empire. The Hapes Consortium of 63 worlds is ruled by the Queen Mother, who wants Leia to marry her son, the dashing and wealthy Prince Isolder.

Han Solo has always dreamed of marrying Leia himself, and now he makes a desperate, final gamble to win her back. Tricking Leia into accompanying him, Han flees with her to the beautiful and untamed planet Dathomir, where he hopes to win her heart.

Fearing the imperious queen’s reaction to Han’s rash move, Luke Skywalker forms an unlikely alliance with Prince Isolder to track down the runaways. Soon Isolder, Luke, and Artoo will be at the center of an adventure leading to an awesome treasure, a group of Force-trained “witches,” and a showdown with an invincible foe.

The story itself is really good, don't get me wrong, but it contedicts both the movies and the other legends books. If you're a big star wars fan and enjoys reading legends, it might be confusing.

The reviews has seemed so mediocre. But, I absolutely loved this story. Had me roaring at parts. Particularly when they get to a certain planet.

So enjoyable

i think it was about 25 years ago when this book first came out and i loved it then and i love it now for different reasons. i love the nostalgia. reminds me of my childhood

though full or errors and big plot leaps and jumps it still brings a smile remembering this story.
the jedi the witch and the warlord.

so many lore errors in this book but you can overlook it.
a much better story of how solo and the princess got married than in the new star wars cannon.

always a classic

....a cracking read/listen back when it was okay for Star Wars books to have happy endings with a well paced story that really delivers some great moments with most of the original cast.

Legends at it's best....

A fine story ruined by the narrator. Hapans are now Irish space pirates. Terrible work ruined the experience.

worst narrator
