| Plot Summary of Isard's Revenge - Star Wars, X-Wing 8 |
"Wedge Antilles and Rogue Squadron who are presumed dead after a terrible mission gone bad, make a deal with Ysanne "Iceheart" Isard, also thought dead, to destroy a mutual enemy and save lost comrades. Wedge knows that Iceheart will certainly betray them, but if he doesn't take the chance, all will be lost anyway."
