Synopsis

No sooner has Darth Vader's funeral pyre burned  to ashes on Endor than the Alliance intercepts a  call for help from a far-flung Imperial outpost.  Bakura is on the edge of known space and the first to  meet the Ssi-ruuk, cold-blooded reptilian invaders  who, once allied with the now dead Emperor, are  approaching Imperial space with only one goal; total  domination. Princess Leia sees the mission as an  opportunity to achieve a diplomatic victory for the  Alliance. But it assumes even greater importance  when a vision of Obi-Wan Kenobi appears to Luke  Skywalker with the message that he must go to  Bakura-or risk losing everything the Rebels have fought  so desperately to achieve.

I also found it hilarious that the back matter in the edition I have--which I recently purchased used--had an ad for The C......more

"Truce at Bakura" takes place the day after the events of "Return of the Jedi". Still basking in the glow of victory at the Battle of Endor, the Rebels pick up a distress call from a distant planet called Bakura.

3.5 Stars Star Wars Reading Guide [URL not allowed] Not the strongest book in the expanded universe but it's an interesting time period to see the events so closely after the explosion of the 2nd death star. I just wish those events had been more interesting.......more

Goodreads review by Katie on January 31, 2016

Oooh, I really liked this one! It's set right after Return of the Jedi and I really like how it explores Leia post-movie. You get to see her dealing with Vader being her father (which, really, the movie should've given us) and she and Han start figuring things out. I like Luke in this book, too, but......more
