About this ebook

Here is the first book in the blockbuster trilogy that chronicles the never-before-told story of the young Han Solo. Set before the Star Wars movie adventures, these books chronicle the coming-of-age of the galaxy's most famous con man, smuggler, and thief.

The first book in this exciting Han Solo series begins with a recounting of Han's late teen years and shows us how he escaped an unhappy adopted home situation to carve out an adventurous new life for himself as a pilot. Han Solo, the handsome rogue, is every girl's dream man, and every boy's hero.

Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!

Ratings and reviews

Fantastic story, so far it's the best star wars book I've read. The others I've come across seem to be looking for any reason to use a line from any of the movies which just seems like piss poor writing. Paradise Snare was a great break away from that.

I LOVED this book? I've read a lot of other Star Wars books, but this was by far the BEST!!! I highly reccomend this book to other Star Wars lovers. I read the sequel too, and am in the middle of reading the third.

I loved this book and the entire trilogy. I love how it connects to the original trilogy and the first trilogy of han Solo stories. Also "spoilers" I think some of rogue one came from the 3rd book
