Star Wars Legends features the novel X-Wing: Solo Command, penned by Aaron Allston. As the seventh book in the Star Wars: X-Wing novel series, it was initially released to the public through Bantam Spectra on February 2, 1999. Later, X-Wing: Isard's Revenge was issued as its continuation in the same year.
The Rebel Alliance's most effective fighting force is Wraith Squadron. Known for their speed, agility, and lethality, they are the first to engage and the last to retreat. Their current task is to locate and neutralize a cunning adversary who poses a greater threat than even the Empire.
Their secret assignment appeared successful. The foe seemed defeated. However, the Super Star Destroyer Iron Fist miraculously survived, along with the New Republic's most dangerous enemy, the notorious warlord Zsinj. To overcome him, Wraith Squadron must collaborate with a combat team led by Han Solo, the only individual capable of outsmarting Zsinj. Yet, Zsinj is aware that the X-wing pilots' unwavering bravery is both their greatest asset and their biggest vulnerability. They will fight to the bitter end, even against insurmountable odds, potentially leaving Zsinj as the supreme ruler of the galaxy!
Warlord Zsinj is once again the target of Wraith Squadron's mission to eliminate him. This time around, they find themselves under the command of General Han Solo, who is in charge of the New Republic task force hunting Zsinj.
Concurrently, Face, who has recently been promoted to Brevet Captain and given leadership of the squadron, investigates the background of Lara Notsil. He uncovers her secret, compelling her to leave the group, though she would later assist the New Republic by developing an army of saboteur droids to disable the warlord's flagship. Wraith Squadron is then integrated into the New Republic Intelligence, and Myn Donos, having recovered from his depression, transfers to Rogue Squadron.
The cover art for X-Wing: Solo Command, created by Paul Youll, was adapted for use on the "Decoy" card in the Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game in 2014.
