  • A. C. Crispin’s Star Wars trilogy tells Han Solo’s life before A New Hope: a street orphan on Corellia escapes a slave-labour spice planet, washes out of the Imperial Academy, earns Chewbacca’s life debt, flies for the Hutts and wins the Millennium Falcon from Lando in a game of sabacc, ending as he walks into the Mos Eisley cantina.
