In the dusty heat of twin-sunned Tatooine lives the wealthiest gangster
in a hundred worlds, master of a vast crime empire and keeper of a
vicious, flesh-eating monster for entertainment (and disposal of his
enemies). Bloated and sinister, Jabba the Hutt might have made a good
joke -- if he weren't so dangerous. A cast of soldiers, spies,
assassins, scoundrels, bounty hunters, and pleasure seekers have come to
his palace, and every visitor to Jabba's grand abode has a story. Some
of them may even live to tell it. . . .
