For the fun-loving, sly and adventurous gambler its a lifestyle too boring for words. So when hes invited to the lavish resort asteroid Oseon 6845—where gambling is the main order of business—Lando is relieved to leave a respectable life behind.Behind the invitation, however is Rokur Gepta, the evil, scheming Sorcerer of Tund, with whom Lando has tangled before. Gepta wastes no time plunging Lando into deep trouble—trouble that is about the plunge Lando into jail… for a capital offense.Lando is offered a slightly less unpleasant alternative: If hell help the corrupt authorities trap the rich drug addict Bohhua Mutdah, he can go free.The obese, sybaritic Mutdah, ensconced on his own private asteroid, turns out to be no pushover. And, like so much of the planteless Oseon system, hes not exactly what he seems.Complicating Landos struggle is Klyn Shanga, leader of a ragtag band of rebels out to snare Gepta, and willing to smash anyone who, however inadvertently, stands in their way.Now Lando, already up to his neck in intrigue, is about to face mental and emotional torture, shattering betrayal… and the mind-twisting terror of Oseons beautiful but deadly solar flare, known as the flamewind.—From the dust jack flaps Star Wars: Lando Calrissian and the Flamewind of Oseon by L.
