Captive to Evil

In this book, we see Star Wars:  A New Hope from Princess Leia's point of view.  According to the book, she was keeping a journal of the events, even when she was on the Death Star.  It's a bit far-fetched in my opinion but it offers some insight into Leia's mindset throughout the movie.  I didn't mean for this to turn into a review, but the book gives a small excerpt on the back instead of a summary.


Excerpt


 


Princess Leia Data Pad
Location:  Prisoners' Dock
Death Star

I don't know how I can escape this station of death.  Or how I can continue to fight against the torture and pain.  But I vow that I will.  And then the real battle will begin.  Not for vengeance--for justice. 1
