X-Wing: Iron Fist constitutes the complete, spoken-word rendition of the novel of the same name from the _Star Wars_ Legends line, penned by the author Aaron Allston. Random House Audio made the audiobook available on June 4, 2024 as a component of The Essential Legends Collection.
Against expectations, the often-criticized Wraith Squadron managed to pull through their inaugural clandestine operation. However, they now face a challenge where they must narrowly escape death a second time. Wedge Antilles is tasking them with the mission of thwarting the warlord Zsinj and his colossal Super Star Destroyer, the Iron Fist. Should Zsinj align with the Empire, the balance of power in the war against the Rebels could shift unfavorably. Wraith Squadron's objective is to infiltrate the warlord's forces and expose his carefully guarded strategies. To accomplish this, they are required to impersonate merciless pirates aiming to enlist in Zsinj's ranks. This necessitates that they first transform into pirates within space routes heavily monitored by Imperial Navy patrols. As if this wasn't perilous enough, they will need to successfully complete a final trial—a near-certain suicide mission assigned by Zsinj.
Will they overcome this ordeal and successfully outmaneuver Zsinj?
Or will this mark the end of Wraith Squadron's journey?
