Journey to Star Wars: The Force Awakens Smuggler's Run: A Han Solo Adventure by Greg Rucka
3.0
I wasn't going to try to read all of the Journey to the Force Awakens releases, and then it just kinda happened because I couldn't contain myself.
Despite the YA label and slim size this was a pretty enjoyable and satisfactory read. Similar to Slow Bullets which was released earlier this year, it was refreshing to read a full story without any bloat.
The framing story takes place somewhere between ROTJ and TFA. It features an older Han Solo telling a few young bucks about the good old days, which happen to have occurred between ANH and ESB. This book was enjoyable because, like many of the other books in the new canon, it is easy to imagine it happening in the Star Wars universe. Han's lines flow like Harrison Ford and his and Chewie's hi-jinks feel totally in character.
The only annoying thing about this book is having to wait until December to see what hints are contained within it.
