About this ebook
Timothy Zahn’s upcoming novel Scoundrels, starring Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Lando Calrissian, returns to the excitement of the classic Star Wars films. In this thrilling prequel eBook novella, Winner Lose All, Lando and a pair of unlikely allies find themselves involved in a dangerous game. Fortunately, Lando can survive against the odds—a skill that he will need in spades.
Lando Calrissian’s no stranger to card tournaments, but this one has a truly electrifying atmosphere. That’s because the prize is a rare sculpture worth a whopping fifty million credits. If Lando’s not careful, he’s going to go bust, especially after meeting identical twins Bink and Tavia Kitik, master thieves who have reason to believe that the sculpture is a fake. The Kitiks are beautiful, dangerous, and determined to set things right—and they’ve convinced Lando to help them expose the scam. But what they’re up against is no simple double cross, nor even a twisted triple cross. It is a full-blown power play of colossal proportions. For an unseen mastermind holds all the cards and has a fail-proof solution for every problem: murder.

Winner Lose All bring the elements of both "To Catch a Theif" and "Law and Order " to the Star Wars Universe. As a Galactic War rages life and crime continues to take place in the Star Wars Universe. I was able to follow the story by the memorable characters.

Winner Lose All,what about Loser Takes All? Either way the story made it's point.Lando is Star Wars character who has a long past:he is known to work either side.Han himself,of course is a good guy,he too would take-up a winning if money was involved,and the pay was good.Star Wars is good subject to read.I give Winner Lose All, A Winner Takes All rating.Five Stars,a very good read,good storyline too!

I love fan fiction, and this one was not dissapointing, just very short, and not discriptive enough at times. Though I would still recommend it to someone.
