Qi'ra's past the beginnings of the rebellion and more! Though Han Solo has thrilled Star Wars
fans for decades the notorious wisecracking scoundrel was chasing adventure and dodging
trouble long before he walked into the cantina at Mos Eisley spaceport. Young Han dreams of
someday soaring into space at the helm of his own starship and leaving his home the gritty
industrial planet Corellia far behind. But as long as he's trapped in a life of poverty and
crime-and under the thumb of the sinister Lady Proxima and her brutal street gang-reaching the
distant stars seems impossible. When Han tries to escape with his girlfriend and
partner-in-crime Qi'ra he makes it out-but she doesn't. Desperate for a way to find his own
offworld vessel and free her Han enlists in the Imperial Navy-the last place for a rebellious
loner who doesn't play well with others. When the Empire clips his wings Han goes rogue and
plunges into the shady world of smugglers gamblers and con artists. There he meets the
charming and cunning high roller Lando Calrissian makes an unlikely friend in a cantankerous
Wookiee called Chewbacca and first lays eyes on the Millennium Falcon. To snag his piece of
the outlaw pie Han joins a crew of pirates to pull off a risky heist. The stakes are high the
danger is great and the odds are slim. But never tell Han Solo the odds. Praise for Solo: A
