She is proof that one woman can make a difference. She is
the catalyst that helped to turn a ragtag rebellion into the
Rebel Alliance. She provided the impetus for the "Heroes
of Yavin" in their attack on the Death Star. She is the
spark that ignited the flames of passion in one of the galaxy's
most notorious rogues. "She," of course, is Princess
Leia, the leader - and the heart - of the rebellion against
Palpatine's galactic empire...
The
four stories in this volume follow Leia from the weeks just
before the events in A New Hope, to just before The
Empire Strikes Back - from her first transforming experience
with armed rebellion, to facing the ramifications of the destruction
of her homeworld, to the beginning of true love.
Volume
four in the Star Wars Empire series explores Leia's
impact as the heart of the rebellion, from her realisation
of her role during a tragedy-strewn consular mission; her
attempt to find an alternative base for the Rebels on the
homeworld of an old love; a violent confrontation with a hidden
monster; and a moment shared with charismatic rogue Han Solo.
All
of the tales have their merits and I particularly liked the
way that A Little Piece of Home had a little more fun
with the Star Wars Universe - allowing itself to explore
aliens and environments not covered previously.
This
collection will please
Star Wars fans who want to see their favourite characters
engage in something a little different.
