| Condition Notes |
Good used copy with substantial but acceptable exterior wear. The front cover has heavy edge rubbing, whitening along the spine edge, worn corners, several creases, and a pronounced upper-right corner crease. The back cover has heavier overall rubbing and scuffing, significant edge wear, multiple creases at the lower-left corner, and an old bookstore price sticker over the barcode area. Despite the cosmetic wear, the cover artwork remains vivid and the book is suitable as a reading or series-building copy. |

When Darth Vader sets his sights on Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon, he summons some of the galaxy’s most dangerous professional bounty hunters. This anthology explores the lives and motivations of the hunters seen in The Empire Strikes Back, giving each character a story beyond their brief appearances on screen.
The five tales focus on IG-88, Dengar, Bossk, Zuckuss and 4-LOM, and Boba Fett, revealing rivalries, ambitions, betrayals, and deadly missions across the Star Wars galaxy.
A classic 1990s Star Wars Expanded Universe anthology centered on the bounty hunters from The Empire Strikes Back. It has strong nostalgia value for longtime Star Wars readers and works especially well alongside Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina and Tales from Jabba’s Palace.
This is the 1996 Bantam Spectra mass-market paperback edition, ISBN 9780553568165, with 339 pages.
Rebelscum identifies this December 1996 paperback as the first paperback edition under ISBN 0-553-56816-7 and credits the cover art to Steve Youll.
