Welcome to our third of four check-in and discussion posts for our Book of the Month.

This month’s book is Allegiance by Timothy Zahn
Chapters 13-18

Allegiance Part 3

1. The threads haven't quite found their way together yet. Which plot thread do you find the most interesting? Which one would you like to see have some more development?

2. So many of the characters seem to be struggling with the idea of 'allegiance' - the AWOL Stormtroopers, Han, the various factions in the Shelsha Sector (including the pirates, the would-be rebel allies, and the Imperials), and there even seem to be vague allusions to Mara questioning things. What sort of allegiances do you think we'll see by the end of the book?

3. Any other thoughts?



FYI - There's no need to answer all (or any) of the questions above - they're just talking points to get us started. Informal chatter is more than welcome! In-person book clubs often veer off topic, it's okay if we do as well. :)
All I ask is that you try to avoid spoilers for things past Part 3 of the book.

I think Han comes across as pretty jaded a lot of the time. I'm trying to remember - is it ESB when he makes a comment about shipping out, and a rebel general agrees with him that "it's hard living with price on your head?" I'm curious as to what extent Han ever really committed to the rebellion, as compared to expanding his personal version of loyalty to Luke and Leia, and accepting that the rebellion is a third party that comes along with them?
