Star Wars: Lando by Charles Soule
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Lando is a decent heist story. This book focuses on a younger version of Lando in which he is still a smuggler and charlatan. He gathers together a group of thieves a la Ocean's Eleven to steal a luxury starship. Things turn from bad to worse when they discover who the owner is.
Soule does a wonderful job capturing the character of Lando. The supporting characters, particularly Lobot, help to round things out. Having read quite a bit of the previous Expanded Universe stuff, I felt like these characters fit right in. And the book as a whole fits well with the stories that Marvel has been telling in the Star Wars setting lately.
