Synopsis[]
THE GALAXY’S FAVORITE HOLIDAY! Happy LIFE DAY! Celebrate the galaxy’s favorite holiday with a collection of festive tales from all across the STAR WARS SAGA! Life Day is the last thing on HAN SOLO’S mind when he and CHEWBACCA find themselves outgunned and under fire. But Chewie won’t give up hope, remembering the lessons of Life Days past and present. As for Life Days yet to come... well, they’ll have to survive the night first!
As the galaxy recovers from the dark days of Imperial rule, the Wookiee tradition of Life Day has spread far and wide-it's a celebration of love and unity where differences are put aside and the citizens of the New Republic face a brigher future together.
But not everyone is full of cheer. Captain Han Solo, formerly of the Rebel Alliance, has lost the Millennium Falcon and is on the run from the notorious criminal organization known as Kanjiklub.
A call from an old friend takes Solo and his longtime co-pilot Chewbacca to Black Spire Outpost on Batuu, where Life Day festivities are in full swing. But where Han Solo goes, danger is never far behind….
