At the same time, Leia is on a life-and-death mission of her own, a race against imperial agents hoping to destroy a third Jedi child – Leia and Han's baby Anakin – hidden on the planet Anoth. Meanwhile, Luke's former protege Kyp Durron has pirated the deadly Sun Crusher on an apocalyptic mission of mass destruction, convinced he is fighting for a just cause. Hunting down the rogue warrior, Han must persuade Kyp to renounce his dark crusade and regain his lost honour. to do it, Kyp must take the Sun Crusher on a suicide mission against the awesome Death Star prototype – a battle Han knows they may be unable to win...even with Luke Skywalker at their side!
