Star Wars X-Wing Rogue Squadron: Rogue Leader

    (Dark Horse, 2005)
™ and © 2005 LucasFilm Ltd.

The Star Wars franchise seems to be an endless source of stories, regardless of any resolution or denouement that occurred in the films. Even after the release of the sixth movie, Revenge of the Sith, titles featuring these iconic characters are still finding an audience. This book stars Luke Skywalker and Wedge Antilles, Luke’s childhood friend who destroyed the second Imperial Death Star and was featured in Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron.

After the fall of the empire, (disclosed in the movie, Return of the Jedi), the fighter pilots of the Rebel Alliance are still busy mopping up pockets of Imperial resistance. On a reconnaissance mission, Luke, Wedge and other X-Wing pilots travel to Corellia. This is Wedge’s home planet and where he intends to settle down once the war is truly over. However, after being fired on by a hidden sniper coupled with the appearance of Imperial walkers and stormtroopers, that event doesn’t appear to be in the foreseeable future.
