A new hope : a novel

Luke Skywalker lives and works on his uncle's farm on the remote planet of Tatooine.

Bored beyond belief, he yearns for adventures out among the stars, adventures that would take him beyond the farthest galaxies to distant and alien worlds.

But Luke gets more than he bargains for when he intercepts a cryptic message from a beautiful princess held captive by a dark and powerful warlord.

Luke doesn't know who she is, but he knows he has to save her - and soon, because time is running out.

Armed only with courage and the lightsaber that was his father's, Luke is catapulted into the middle of the most savage space war ever...and heads straight for a desperate encounter on the enemy battle station known as the Death Star...
