The Lando Calrissian Adventures is a series of novels by L. Neil Smith published in 1983 and released in an omnibus in 1994. They detail the experiences of Lando Calrissian as captain of the Millennium Falcon before he lost it to Han Solo. Lando is accompanied by his droid co-pilot, Vuffi Raa, and opposed by Rokur Gepta (part of a mystic order called the Sorcerers of Tund).
This particular series has a number of events especially peculiar to it. Notable among them is Lando Calrissian's noteworthy achievements of saving or at least befriending no less than three highly advanced civilizations, and also examples of technology that isn't present anywhere else in the EU. (Lando Calrissian's 'stingbeam' blaster pistol, the weapons present on the Imperial starships in the third book, etc.) Additionally, weapons are added to the Millennium Falcon's arsenal that exist nowhere else in the EU. The three civilizations involved are never mentioned again, aside from brief excerpts from the Han Solo Trilogy when the droid character Vuffi Raa appeared and was mentioned as joining his impressively advanced comrades, as well as several RPG supplements, resource books, etc.
