A New Hope ended with a victory celebration following the destruction of the Death Star. Our heroes won the fight; the galaxy was, as far as we knew, saved. What many forgot is that the Empire was mighty and strong. When the Rebellion struck its core, it had no choice but to strike back.

This novel adaption for young readers takes The Empire Strikes Back and tells the story in a format more suitable for the younglings in your life, including all the same memorable moments and characters we all fell in love with from the moment the movie released.
