[edit] Publisher's summary
A father's death. A son's revenge.
Boba Fett is emerging as one of the most skilled bounty hunters in the galaxy. After surviving his deadly battle with the fearsome General Grievous, there's one bounty he wants more than any other: Mace Windu, the Jedi who killed his father.
When fate and Anakin Skywalker bring Boba Fett to the city-planet of Coruscant, Boba plunges into the Coruscant underworld and arms himself for the greatest confrontation of his young life.
It's the bounty hunter vs. the Jedi as Boba Fett takes his one and only chance at revenge.

[edit] Behind the scenes
- On the front cover, Anakin Skywalker's appearance is similar to how he looks in Revenge of the Sith.
- Asajj Ventress and her Fanblade starfighter are also on the cover. She makes an appearance in a dogfight against Boba.
- Two Imperator-class Star Destroyers are shown on the cover, but this would appear to be an oversight as these vessels do not feature in the story.
- Another apparent error has Boba's helmet being shown on the front cover bearing a dent it will not receive until after the events of this novel, in a fight against Vader.
- Wilhuff Tarkin appears in this book, prior to his becoming a Grand Moff.
- Boba Fett confronts Mace Windu to avenge his father's death. Many fans had expressed their wishes to see such a confrontation. Fett, then a hot-headed child, was able to match the Jedi Master, but the fight was ended before either was killed. Darth Vader's future impression of Boba Fett as a highly capable and reliable bounty hunter may have been shaped by this event.
- Boba Fett re-paints his father's armor in the green and red livery that will later achieve infamy.
- On the spines of later editions of this title, the word "Wars" was accidentally omitted from the name "Star Wars".
- This book incorrectly states Boba Fett had never been to Coruscant before, but he in fact did so in Boba Fett: The Fight to Survive.
