The initial book within the Star Wars: Rebel Force collection is entitled Rebel Force: Target. Authored for younger audiences by Alex Wheeler, it was made available to the public in December of 2008.
With the Death Star now a memory, celebrations at the Rebel base are cut short. The Alliance has picked up a coded message, revealing the Empire's relentless pursuit to identify the pilot who annihilated the Death Star. Immediate changes are made to security: Details about the Death Star mission are now classified, with Luke's pivotal shot kept secret.
However, the Alliance faces more than just this threat. The destruction of Alderaan resulted in the loss of nearly all their funds, leaving them in a financial crisis. Their only recourse is to tap into hidden accounts on Muunilinst, the former headquarters of the InterGalactic Banking Clan and the financial center of the galaxy. Consequently, Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca, and the droids set off for Muunilinst.
Unbeknownst to them, the Empire's most skilled assassin lies in wait.
