Opening crawl[]

Hand of Darkness
As Lando Calrissian's Viper Automadon war droids attack the Emperor's citadel on Byss, they are met by an army of monstrous creatures bent on destruction.

They war droids are no match for the Emperor's dark-side monsters, and soon the Rebels are pinned down amidst the ruins of their attack.

But Salla Zend and Shug Ninx pull together a group of smugglers to come to the aid of the Rebels. Manning fast-armed freighters, the spacers hold the dark-side beasts at bay long enough for Lando's crew to scramble aboard.

Across the galaxy, Luke Skywalker, Kam Solusar, and the young Jedi Knights Jem and Rayf Ysanna head for the Alliance command base on the pinnacled fifth moon of Da Soocha.

As Luke's ship, the ''Jedi Explorer'', emerges from hyperspace, a light-speed torpedo fired from the Emperor's new Galaxy Weapon emerges near them, heading straight for Pinnacle Base.

Guessing the projectile's purpose, Luke tries to shoot it down – but the torpedo's shields hold and it strikes the Rebel moon with a planet-shattering blast.

Elsewhere, the ''Millenium'' [sic] ''Falcon'', repaired by antique Ganathan technology, arrives at a tiny settlement on exotic New Alderaan. There, Han and Leia's twin children, Jacen and Jaina, have been secreted since birth from the prying eyes of the Emperor...

Publisher's summary[]

Han Solo and Princess Leia have taken refuge with their twins on the planet New Alderaan.

But refuge, it seems, eludes the family when Emperor Palpatine and an AT-AT battalion come hunting for Rebel officers. Worry not, Leia! They don't want your lives… they just want your children!
