Based on the screenplay and story by George Lucas

In barren desert lands and seedy spaceports…in vast underwater metropolitan areas and in the blackest depths of space…unfolds a tale of good and evil, of misconception and magic, of innocence and power. Finally the saga that captured the creativity of millions changes back in its history to reveal its cloaked roots – the beginning of a tale – the story of Superstar WARS . Predicated on the screenplay by George Lucas, this novel by professional storyteller Terry Brooks probes the depths of one of the greatest stories of our time, providing rich fine detail and insight into the minds and motives of the people – and losing bold new light on Lucas’ excellent creation.
