Publisher Description


Even the fastest ship in the galaxy can’t outrun the past. . . .


THEN:

It’s one of the galaxy’s most dangerous secrets: a mysterious transmitter with unknown power and a reward for its discovery that most could only dream of claiming. But those who fly the Millennium Falconthroughout its infamous history aren’t your average scoundrels. Not once, but twice, the crew of the Falcon tries to claim the elusive prize—first, Lando Calrissian and the droid L3-37 at the dawn of an ambitious career, and later, a young and hungry Han Solo with the help of his copilot, Chewbacca. But the device’s creator, the volatile criminal Fyzen Gor, isn’t interested in sharing. And Gor knows how to hold a grudge. . . .

NOW:

It’s been ten years since the rebel hero Han Solo last encountered Fyzen Gor. After mounting a successful rebellion against the Empire and starting a family with an Alderaanian princess, Han hasn’t given much thought to the mad inventor. But when Lando turns up at Han’s doorstep in the middle of the night, it’s Fyzen’s assassins that he’s running from. And without Han’s help, Lando—and all life on Cloud City—will be annihilated.

With the assistance of a young hotshot pilot, an Ewok slicer prodigy, the woman who might be the love of Lando’s life, and Han’s best and furriest friend, the two most notorious scoundrels in the New Republic are working together once more. They’ll have to journey across the stars—and into the past—before Gor uses the device’s power to reshape the galaxy.

Flibberty Gibbert ,

A good romp through the galaxy with two scoundrels!

Despite what other reviews said, I thought this book was actually quite well written. 4 different timelines scattered throughout and it paints an overall picture. Plus I really think the author nails the Han & Lando relationship post Return of the Jedi! A good read and am Intriguing villain too!

Too much Time-skipping

The interplay between Han and Lando is well done but the endless time skipping is the real issue and makes the book difficult to follow at times. Questionable characters ( Ewok splicer ?) and pointless encounters and villains hamper what isn’t actually too bad a plot. Not great

Stav Ellis ,

A struggle

With all the back and forth in timeline with some characters I barely knew or cared about, it was a real struggle to get through. Felt disjointed and convoluted the vast majority of the time, nowhere near as good as the Zahn or Traviss novels. Just couldn’t find much to enjoy about it, I feel like a novelisation or something more tied to the film would have been much better and by another author other than this crazy boring plot.

I loved Solo the film so much I went to see it 3 times... this book I had to force myself to pick back up more times than I can count and I just wish I’d never started it. Thrawn was so good I expected more brilliance from this latest EU novel... I was severely disappointed
