Publisher Description

He is Boba Fett, the most feared and successful bounty hunter in the galaxy, and even the most hardened criminals tremble at his name. Now he faces the deadliest challenge of his infamous career: an all-out war against his most dangerous enemies.

As the Rebellion gathers force, Prince Xizor proposes a cunning plan to the Emperor and Darth Vader: smash the power of the Bounty Hunters Guild by turning its members against each other. Only the strongest and most ruthless will survive, and they can be used against the Rebellion. It's a job for the fiercely independent Boba Fett, who jumps at the chance to destroy his rivals. But Fett soon realizes the murderous factions, criminal conspiracies, and the evil at the Empire's dark heart. Boba Fett has always finished first. And in this game, anything less is death.

"This book probably only deserves a three star rating but I'm a huge Boba Fett fan so the fact that it's about him gets it an extra star. I did enjoy the book however and if you're a Star Wars fan you will most likely enjoy the book as well."

    " Boba Fett is one tough cookie and everybody fears him (we are told so repeatedly throughout the story), that basically sums up the book. It details how Fett joins the Bounty Hunters Guild to break it up. This plan is put into motion by Prince Xizor (working through a middle agent), head of the Black Sun crime syndicate, who wants to please the Emperor for his own purposes and taunt Vader. The story also tells what happens after Fett escapes from the digestive system of the Sarlacc in Tales From Jabes Palace. The writing has both strong and weak elements. The use of words is good, but Jeter uses too many of them to tell his tale, which is really bad for the story pacing. The book could have been better, but it could also have been a lot worse. "

    " On one end, you have Boba Fett, and on the other end you have Dengar, and there is some big conflict over who's going to be in control of the bounty hunters guild or whatever. On the OTHER hand, you have George Lucas, who is poised to destroy this story in four years when he releases Episode II. Go figure. "

    " I don't often say this about Star Wars novels, because I am most definitely a biased reader when it comes to SW, but this trilogy just plain sucks. The writing is bad, and the plot is RIDICULOUS. Read the summaries on Wookieepedia, don't bother with the books. "

    " The Extended Universe is at it's best when it is actually *extended* - rather than bundling together loose plot points from the films. Jeter came up with some good concepts in this series. "
