EPISODE 1

In barren desert lands and seedy spaceports … in vast underwater cities and in the blackest depths of space … unfolds a tale of good and evil, of myths and magic, of innocence and power. At last the saga that captured the imagination of millions turns back in time to reveal its cloaked origin, the start of a legend, the story of Star Wars. Based on the screenplay by George Lucas, this novel by master storyteller Terry Brooks probes the depths of one of the greatest tales  of our time, providing rich detail and insight into the minds and motives of the characters, and shedding bold new light on Lucas’s brilliant creation.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, an evil legacy long believed dead is stirring. Even the Jedi are caught by surprise, their attentions focused on the political unrest between the Trade Federation and the Republic. Now the dark side of the Force threatens to overwhelm the light, and only an ancient Jedi prophecy stands between hope and doom for the entire galaxy.

On the desert world of Tatooine, far from the concerns of the Republic, a slave boy works by day and dreams by night, of being a Jedi Knight and one day travelling the stars to worlds he’s only heard of in stories … of finding a way to win freedom from enslavement for himself and his beloved mother. His only hope lies in his extraordinary instincts and his strange gift for understanding the rightness of things, talents that allow him to be one f the best Podracers on the planet.
