Star Wars Modern Era Epic Collection: Mutiny At Mon Cala

The rebel crew fights to liberate Mon Cala, ocean-planet home of Admiral Ackbar!

The Rebel Alliance is determined to strengthen its forces by growing its numbers, but with more recruits comes discord and dissidence. Can Princess Leia, with help from Han and Luke, forge one true alliance from the many factions? On a mission to Mon Cala, Leia has a nearly impossible plan to ally the besieged planet with the rebellion — one that hinges on the unique skills and cultural know-how of C-3PO! And with the Empire temporarily weakened, the Alliance is poised to rise up in defiance. Could their ultimate victory be imminent? Or will Darth Vader find the rebel base and regain the upper hand? In the wake of disaster, our heroes will find themselves on the run — and despite the desperate times, romance might be in the air!
