The name now given to those novels set roughly during the period of the original movies.
And with me being unsure, I have to say, whether this particular entry is still considered Canon, or if it had been given 'Legend' (aka the old EU) status.
Anyway, this is set after the events of A New Hope but before those of The Empire Strikes Back, and largely focuses on Leia Organa's response to the situation when she uncovers the fact that a group of pirates, preying on victims in the Outer Rim, are all survivors of Alderaan (and some of whom blame her for the destruction of said planet).
With passages also told from the point of view of Han Solo and, to a lesser extent, Luke Skywalker, this thus very much follows the original trio of stars from the original trilogy.
It's just a pity that I never really got the sense that it *was* Leia, Han or Luke - I can't really put my finger on it, but - to me - there just seemed something 'off' slightly.
Still, other readers mileage may vary!
