A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, Luke, Han, and Princess Leia's story didn't end with the destruction of the Death Star....
Though they had won a significant battle, the war between the Rebel Alliance and the Empire had really just begun.
Now, several months later, the Rebels had established an outpost on the frozen wasteland of Hoth. But even on that icy, backwater planet, they could not escape the evil Darth Vader's notice for long.
Soon, Luke, Han, Princess Leia, and their faithful companions were forced to flee, scattering in all directions--with the Dark Lord's minions in fevered pursuit (
Donald F. Glut has been a musician, actor, film director, photographer and copywriter, but is mostly known for his long career as a freelance writer. He has authored approximately eighty fiction and non-fiction books, myriad TV scripts (live action and animation shows, both network and syndicated), motion-picture scripts, comic-book scripts, short stories, magazine articles and even music. Don is best known, however, for his novelization of the second “Star Wars” movie The Empire Strikes Back. Currently, Don is executive-producing, writing and directing “traditional-style” horror movies—featuring iconic monsters—for his company Pecosborn Productions, and is also a regular script writer for The Creeps, a horror comics magazine.
