Every guy who's ever seen Star Wars has wanted to be Han Solo. Now, A.C. Crispin's Han Solo Trilogy fills in the backstory, and does it well. Rebel Dawn tries to bridge the gap to the original trilogy and tie up loose ends with Han and Bria's relationship. It also explains why Chewie worried Lando still held a grudge against Han. The book works, but perhaps not quite as smoothly as the first two books. Both Zala's suggestions she and Han get married and Han's pining for Bria seem a bit out of character. I did like the intrigue with the Hutts. Crispin makes them into believable mafioso types. Xizor was also well employed. At the least, the trilogy will give you a new respect for everybody's favorite smuggler and how far he's traveled to become respectable.

The book is excellent to read, but I returned the book back since I found that it was included in a hardcover book with two other Han Solo stories.
I can say that Amazon acted quickly to cancel the order so that I didn't even get the book and then have to return it. It is a good story and I'm glad that at least it made it into the hardcover copy.
