Today, Mashable drops a pretty big Life Debt excerpt. Go read it! It features Leia! And her baby! And the Force! And Luke! AND EWOKS.
(No, really.)
Some things you should know about the excerpt —
First, despite what the post says, I don’t consider Han and Chewie to be the “main focus” of the book. They are a focus, and are important to the story. So is Leia. So is the crew from the first Aftermath. SO IS RAE SLOANE AND MISTER BONES AND ahhhhh eeee wooo. Ahem. What I’m saying is, check your expectations and don’t go thinking this is a Han-and-Chewie adventure from the first to last page.
Second, this is not an interlude.
Third, the excerpt loses some formatting. In the book, it contains italics to identify and separate Leia’s thoughts, and honestly, I consider that formatting vital — it reads harder without it.
Fourth, I love this excerpt. I adored writing it. I still adore it now that I’m reading it again.
I hope you like it.

Wait… it’s not an interlude… so you’re saying that Leia is a main POV character throughout? If so, awesome!
Really awesome!
