In a galaxy far, far away,

Since the empire took over, however, Jedis are scarce and the universe is in
danger once more. When two droids come into Luke’s possession, he uncovers a
message of a princess who needs Obi-Wan Kenobi’s help. Old Be n Kenobi, a
hermit, is the only one Luke can think of, so he goes to him for help. That life-changing
decision send Luke on a hair-raising adventure fraught with danger,
light-sabers, princesses, strange creatures, and his life will never be the
same. But, can he save the princess, the empire, and achieve his dream of being
a Jedi?
