Star Wars: A New Hope (Classic) represents a rendition by Random House of the film Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. This book, included in the "Bullseye Book" collection, was written for younger audiences by Larry Weinberg and made available in 1995. Being a novel designed for young readers, it offers a more concise version of numerous scenes, emphasizing Darth Vader's role. A revised edition was then published in 2004.
Several scenes are abbreviated in this adaptation. The characters state that Alderaan lacked a moon. Furthermore, the book omits the Red Leader's assault on the trench.
