A nice little collection of stories on the patrons of the cantina. Illuded to in the Young Jedi Knights series (the part about the band at least) it's an interesting read for someone looking for a taste of Star Wars without main characters.

In a far corner of the universe, on the small desert planet of Tatooine, there is a dark, nic-i-tain-filled cantina where you can down your favorite intoxicant while listening to the best jizz niffs in the universe. But beware your fellow denizens of the pangalactic watering hole, for they are cutthroats and cutpurses, assassins and troopers, humans and aliens, gangsters and theives...
Have you ever wondered about Greedo's life before he got blown away by Han Solo? Perhaps you wondered how the bartender at the Mos Eisley Cantina survives his day. This collection of short stories may be for you.
I foun this book to be a great read. I personaly love what happens to Gredo.

I can remember standing in line in the 70s to see the first Star Wars movie. And I've seen them all since then, but thought the last one was a disappointment. But I've never read any of the books stemming from the movies. They were just not my cup of tea. And there is just too much really good sci-fi out there to spend time reading pale imitations of the movies.
However, I decided to give this anthology a try, thinking I could skip the bad stories. There are always bad stories included in anthologies. But I was surprised, as I liked most of the stories. And realized the editor must have let the authors read the previous stories submitted, as the main characters in some stories later played minor roles in following stories. And all the stories seem to have Luke and Obi-Wan entering the cantina at some point. So those were interesting plot devices to keep me interested.
But I would encourage you to skip the final story. It was a confusing disappointment.
