There are many terrible forms of conflict but the worst is war, war against Good and Evil and the war against Evil and Good. The reason I say the second version is because in this case both sides think that they are the good guys but the truth is that only one side are truthfully good and one side is truthfully evil. The battle I’m talking about is the Galactic Civil War that takes place over the entirety of the Star Wars Series this battle is in between the Galactic Empire, controlled by Lord Vader in a conquest for the galaxy. The Rebellion is a militia group composted only to protect the galaxy from the evil mass of the Empire. In the instance here, the Empire are the evil ones and the Rebellion are the good guys. My book, called Star Wars: …show more content…

The entire story takes place over a 2 day flashback, told by Han Solo. The whole story takes the mission of saving a grown man who is so scared of the Empire that he is horrifyed to even leave his hotel room. When Han finds him he is literally hiding the corner. From the very beginning of the book the Author consistently also makes remarks such as. “...The Empire is not a force to be reckoned with…” and “...The Empire is the most persistent army in the galaxy, they will never stop till they are destroyed or they destroy us…” clearly these 2 quotes show just how evil the Empire really is. But enough on evil let's move to Good. The good guys in the story are just as persistent however. In the book Han Solo and Chewbacca aren't the only ones in the book who are on the rebellion's side.

One easy problem with this new theme is the fact that Luke Skywalker not Darth Vader are in this book and no other characters in the book use the power of fate to their bidding. ANother problem with this theme is the fact that this book, compared to the movies, is not that long at all. And in the book, not once does Han even NEED to, let alone risk everything, in fact he barely makes any risks at all during the whole book. And, yeah, he does make small risks here and there for the purpose of suspense. But is it really big enough to make and occasional risk and get a theme out of it, compared to the every rising tides of the Empire that the Rebellion must keep at bay before everything in the galaxy is either enslaved or destroyed. My main point about this opposite theme is that, there is barely any, let alone GOOD evidence to support it in the slightest. And that's why I believe that my theme for the book Star Wars:Smuggler's Run is better than the opposing one. Another popular theme
