| Plot Summary of The Empire Strikes Back |
|---|
"This is a novelization of the movie of the same name. It details the story of the Empire, still smarting from the destruction of the death star, hunting down the rebels on the ice planet Hoth, and then chasing Han Solo through an asteroid belt. Meanwhile, Luke goes to night school on Dagobah to become a Jedi Knight but has to leave before graduation to rescue Han, who has just become Darth Vader's latest hood ornament."
