From the force allowing the tale of an adoptive mother, the intricacies of a Star Destroyer bureaucracy, the aftermath of a Stormtrooper not able to find the droids he was looking for, Imperials finding love in unusual places, many rebel stories about engineers, pilots, a consular on a diplomatic mission, and “a card player, gambler, scoundrel. You'd like him”.Low Ground:The book takes a sweet, lovely time getting out of Tatooine and in particular the cantina, reminiscent of [b:Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina 353479 Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina (Star Wars) Kevin J.
