출판사 설명
They are the galaxy's most elite fighting force. And as the battle against the Empire rages, the X-wing fighters risk life and machine to protect the Rebel Alliance. Now they must go on a daring undercover mission--as the crew of an Imperial warship.
It is Wedge Antilles' boldest creation: a covert-action unit of X-wing fighters, its pilots drawn from the dregs of other units, castoffs and rejects given one last chance. But before the new pilots can complete their training, the squadron's base is attacked by former Imperial admiral Trigit, and Wraith Squadron is forced to swing into action--taking over an Imperial warship and impersonating its crew. The mission: to gain vital intelligence about Trigit's secret weapons, to sabotage the admiral's plans, and to lure him into an Alliance trap. But the high-stakes gamble pits Wraith Squadron's ragtag renegades against the Empire's most brilliant master of guile and deception.
Are they up to the challenge?
If not, the penalty is instant death.
Features a bonus section following the novel that includes a primer on the Star Wars expanded universe, and over half a dozen excerpts from some of the most popular Star Wars books of the last thirty years!

This is nostalgic
Despite never watching a star wars movie, I loved the x-wing novels when I was in high school and Allston’s wraith squadron books are the best of the lot, so they’re the ones I go to reread. It’s screwball hijinks, a bit of drama, and occasionally you catch a feeling.
A very witty novel
I always enjoy his work. The clever banter is always amusing and the story line unique.
Didn’t Enjoy
These X-Wing stories just really haven’t captured me. I feel like they try too hard to be spy missions and I just want to read a sort of “Top Gun-planes in space” style mission. We got some of that in the end but I hope we get a worthy story soon.
