The books cover a period of approximately 6 to 18 months ABY, serving as a sequel to the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. The series of twelve books was written by John Whitman, and was released from February 1997 through October 1998. The books ranged from 100 pages to 200 pages in large print.

The books tell the stories of three people and a droid: Tash Arranda, Zak Arranda, their Shi'ido uncle Mammon Hoole, and his droid DV-9.
