Publisher’s Summary

Luke, Han and Princess Leia’s story didn’t end with the destruction of the Death Star—it continues in The Empire Strikes Back.

Though they had won a significant battle, the war between the Rebels and the Empire had really just begun.

Now, several months later, the Rebels have established an outpost on the frozen wasteland of Hoth. But even on that icy, backwater planet, they could not escape the evil Darth Vader’s notice for long.

Soon, Luke, Han, the princess and their faithful companions were forced to flee, scattering in all directions—the Dark Lord’s minions in fevered pursuit!


Quick Summary

When the Empire discovers the secret Rebel Alliance base on Hoth, its members must regroup — even if it means going their separate ways to stay hidden for now.
