Lando's Luck is a middle grade Star Wars themed novel.
Being a non Star Wars fan I was nervous that I would be lost with the characters, planets, and Star Wars vocabulary that is unique to the Star Wars world. My feelings were unfounded because Justina Ireland does a phenomenal job explaining the ins and outs of the universe. As unique Star Wars ideas are introduced she briefly explains them.
The novel begins with Lando Calrissian, a gambler and smuggler with a reputation for swindling those that come in contact with him. When he is caught smuggling on the planet Hynestia, the queen makes him an offer he cannot refuse, bring the Solstice Globe to the empire. The problem is the Solstice Globe does not belong to Hynestia or the Empire. The adventure begins when Princess Rinetta makes Lando a different.
The characters come alive in this story as they travel around the universe on their adventures.
