Plot summary[edit | edit source]

Book V, Part V
THE LAST FLIGHT OF THE HARBINGER

It is a time of renewed hope for the Rebel Alliance
as heroic rebel soldiers strive to undermine
Imperial forces throughout the galaxy.

The Alliance sends its heroes, pilot Luke Skywalker,
Princess Leia, and smuggler-turned-soldier Han Solo,
to save an ally planet, Tureen VII. They capture a
massive Star Destroyer, attracting the attention of
Darth Vader, who dispatches an elite group of
stormtroopers — led by the bloodthirsty Sergeant
Kreel — to retake it.

Leia, Luke, Han, and their crew arrive at Tureen VII
and are attacked by Kreel and his squad. With the
ship falling apart and their small forces scattered,
the outcome looks bleak for the rebels....
