Star Wars: Boba Fett: A Practical Man

Star Wars: Boba Fett: A Practical Man by Karen Traviss brings the reader back to the very beginning of the Yuuzhan Vong invasion. This original novella is the latest Star Wars eBook publication, from Del Rey Books and will be available at eBook retailers on August 15, 2006. It also includes an exclusive excerpt from the eagerly anticipated STAR WARS: LEGACY OF THE FORCE: BLOODLINES (on—sale 8/29/06) and an interview with the author.

On the surface, it seems like just another routine contract for Boba Fett and his Mandalorian commandos, but the mystery client who hires them to start a small war is more dangerous than any of them can possibly imagine. When the Yuuzhan Vong invasion force sweeps into the galaxy, the Mandalorians find they’re on the wrong side–fighting for an alien culture that will bring about the end of their own.

Now Fett has to choose between his honor and the survival of his people. Since he’s a practical man, he’s determined help the resistance beat the Yuuzhan Vong–even if it means working with a Jedi agent. Trouble is, no one trusts a man with Fett’s reputation. So convincing the New Republic that they’re fighting on the same side is a tall order. Denounced as traitors, Fett’s Mandalorians need to stay one step ahead of their Yuuzhan Vong paymasters–and the Republic who sees them as collaborators with the most destructive enemy the galaxy has ever faced. . . .

Reviewer: Phill Tuxford from York, UK
One of a selection of Star Wars novels that were only ever released in ebook format, this one sits very early in the New Jedi Order series and explains how the Yuuzhan Vong fist entered the Star Wars galaxy and their early dealings with the Mandalorian bounty hunters and more specifically the ever practical Boba Fett. You read the story of Yuuzhan Vong hiring the Mandalore as their tame mercenaries and how Boba Fett and the other Mandalore realise that some times, regardless of how many credits you are getting, you need to fight for the other side.

Reviewer: Brian Rosenquist from Ringsted, DK
Puts a new twist in the story of Boba Fett. I like it a lot. This book shows that there is more to him that what is seen in the movies.
