This book isn't just for those who like Star Wars. It is a good sci-fi story that happens to be in the Star Wars universe. It follows the trials of a man desperate to be reunited with his wife; and he's willing to do what it takes. The addition of light-sabers to the mix just adds to the fun. The main character is unrelated to the movies (Corran Horn) – one doesn't need to be into Star Wars to enjoy this book. It's definitely worth the read.
