defrogHan Solo as pulp-fiction hero.

Is it just me, or does he look kind of like Robert Vaughn?
BONUS TRACK: This reminds me of Brian Daley’s Han Solo novels, which I read in high school. I don’t know if they’d hold up to my jaded 45-year-old self, but I enjoyed them at the time, not least because Solo was my favorite Star Wars character, and I was keen to read some (ahem) solo adventures.
On the other hand, I did try Daley’s first book, The Doomfarers Of Coramonde, after reading the Solo books, and it didn’t make a huge impression.
DISCLAIMER: I should also mention that apart from The Han Solo Adventures and Alan Dean Foster’s Splinter Of The Mind’s Eye (which I also liked, at least when I was 13, despite Solo not being in it), I haven’t really bothered with most of the Star Wars Expanded Universe novels. If anyone wants to make recommendations, I’m all ears.
Shoot first,
This is dF
