Lando struggles with the burden of leadership, a scout trooper chases down Luke Skwyalker, Ewoks live with threat of the Empire, and Norra Wexley prepares for the attack on the Death Star in this collection of stories from From a Certain Point of View.
We continue looking at the stories celebrating the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi in From a Certain Point of View. This batch of stories starts with Lando Calrissian contemplating the difficulties inherent in being both a leader in the Rebellion and the former Baron Administrator of Cloud City as he deals with restless smugglers. Next, a scout trooper gets caught up in the pursuit of the Rebels on Endor. However, this is no ordinary scout trooper, and his racing background serves him well. A pair of Ewoks, Wicket and Logray, feature in the next two stories. Finally, Nora Wexley participates in a night of Sabacc before the climactic attack on the Death Star. Each of these stories brings something a little different to Return of the Jedi, and we are diving into all of them in this episode of Podcast Stardust.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- Lando’s challenges as the leader of Cloud City and with the Rebellion,
- A scout trooper chasing down Luke Skywlaker,
- Wicket’s desire for a day off despite the presence of the Empire on Endor,
- Logray’s joy and dismay in finding the “Golden One” on Endor, and
- Norra Wexley’s night of Sabacc before attacking the Death Star.
