NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER You are cordially invited to the wedding of Princess Leia Organa and Han Solo.

The Death Star is destroyed. Darth Vader is dead. The Empire is desolate. But on the forest moon of Endor, among the chaos of a changing galaxy, time stands still for a princess and her scoundrel.

After being frozen in carbonite, then risking everything for the Rebellion, Han is eager to stop living his life for other people. He and Leia have earned their future together, a thousand times over. And when he proposes to Leia, it’s the first time in a long time he’s had a good feeling about this. For Leia, a lifetime of fighting doesn’t seem truly over. There is work still to do, penance to pay for the dark secret that she now knows runs through her veins. Her brother, Luke, is offering her that chance—one that comes with family and the promise of the Force. But when Han asks her to marry him, Leia finds her answer immediately on her lips . . . Yes.

Yet happily ever after doesn’t come easily. As soon as Han and Leia depart their idyllic ceremony for their honeymoon, they find themselves on the grandest and most glamorous stage of all: the Halcyon, a luxury vessel on a very public journey to the most wondrous worlds in the galaxy. Their marriage, and the peace and prosperity it represents, are a lightning rod for all—including Imperial remnants still clinging to power.

Facing their most desperate hour, the soldiers of the Empire have dispersed across the galaxy, retrenching on isolated planets vulnerable to their influence. As the Halcyon travels from world to world, one thing becomes abundantly clear: The war is not over. But as danger draws closer, Han and Leia find that they fight their best battles not alone, but as husband and wife.

Good book

I was reluctant to begin this book. My family and I recently returned from a trip on the Halcyon. We enjoyed it so much that I wanted to re live the experience but in the OT era. I was thrilled to read a novel that story is about the adventures in a world that we all love; not a memorandum on what character is now queer and more inclusive then they ever have been.

The story fills in some nice gaps after the second death stars destruction and the ongoing threat of the empire.

Once the story progresses through some of the romance, the story really picks up. It was hard to put it down after I was 1/3 into the book.

Highly recommended for OT Star Wars fans!!!

Finally a story that feels like star wars

Great novel

Revis’s novel starts off with a slow burn, beautifully describing the nature of the moon of Endor and Leia and Han’s quirky and magical wedding, and turns into a riveting mystery and adventure.

I particularly liked how Revis gives us insight into 1) the trauma suffered by Leia at the hands of Darth Vader and her horror after learning he is her father and 2.) Han’s feelings about having a lost a year of his life and his visceral fear of cold afterbeing frozen in carbonite.

Revis also ties in some of Leah’s adventures from the War of the Bounty Hunters comic series. There is also a shameless connection to Disney’s Galactic Cruiser hotel, which is called the Halcyon.

I really loved the dual narrations of Marc Thompson (Han’s chapters) and Saskia Maarleveld (Leia’s chapters). Thompson has the ability to sound just like Harrison Ford, and both actors do a great job paralleling the same multiple characters within the chapters they narrate.

If you love Star Wars, as I do, you will enjoy this adventure with Han and Leia. I am grateful for this story that is just about them.

A Great Adventure

YOU'RE WRONG!
This book is as fantastic as the movies, the details fantastic, and the characters exactly what you'd expect from both the Star Wars Universe AND Beth Revis! The characters we know remained perfectly in their own heads and the new ones were seamless in their integration! BEAUTIFUL WORK! It made it so easy to picture Carrie Fischer and Harrison Ford stepping into this place directly after the battle of Endor. And while their feelings for each other are very much there, it is no different than what was already evident in the movies.

The narrorators were perfect, too! It sounds like Marc Thompson has been doing Harrison Ford impressions his entire life and while Saskia Maarleveld doesn't have the same timber in her voice, she does sound like a slightly more mature Carrie Fischer than the one at the end of Return of the Jedi. In a word, the voice casting was BRILLIANT! Rock on, you two!

Amazing story directly after episode 6! And plus MARC THOMPSON! Anything he reads is 10x better than just reading it your self!

Amazing side story!

This was an amazing listen and I hope the we get more stories about Han and Leia leading up to TFA but it dose have sad mist over for me, it’s impossible not to hear the name princess Leia and not immediately think of Carrie Fisher. Her lost is always going to add a pang of pain to the heart to this galaxy that so many love.

Beautiful but sad
