Star Wars: The Crystal Star, was written by bestselling author, Vonda N. McIntyre. This Expanded Universe tale takes place during the New Republic Era, 14 ABY (14 years after the Battle of Yavin).
So, this book hurt my brain… sorry for the poor review of this book. Just… don’t read it if you love yourself.
The three Solo children had been kidnapped! You gotta love how Leia and the kids spent time on a planet Montro Codrru, knowing that abduction was a popular thing. It’s a tradition there, people stealing others… great parenting.
Han and Luke are at Cressi Station, the are unable to be contacted by Leia due to the Crystal Star, the black hole nearby disrupts communications. Han had been receiving messages about strange activity at the station, which was once imperial but abandoned and reinhabited by random folks. Luke believes there is a Jedi there in hiding, and he hopes to find the force user.
Hetherir has the Solo kids, tells them that their family was killed, an earthquake had destroyed everything, took the lives of their parents. Jaina knew he was lying. The twins knew that their father and Luke were not even with them, that they were far away.
This guy, Hethrir is attempting to bring up a new Empire, the Empire Reborn, made up of force users. This Empire Reborn, huts children and tests them for force abilities.
The interdimensional being called Waru is at Cressi Station, people believe Waru to be a healer… it’s a blob covered in gold scales…
Luke is weak, Han is angry, Leia is in a panic. Waru is Waru – I’m done.
Rating is an F.
