Luke Skywalker worked on his uncle's farm on the remote planet of Tatooine - and he was bored beyond belief.  He yearned for adventures out among the stars, adventures that would take him to distant worlds and the farthest galaxies.  Then Luke intercepted a cryptic message from a beautiful princess held captive by a dark and powerful warlord.  He didn't know who she was but he knew he had to save her - and soon.  Armed with only courage and his father's lightsabre, Luke was catapulted into the middle of the most savage space war ever and headed straight for a desperate encounter on the enemy battle station known as the Death Star.
