Star Wars Jedi Academy Trilogy Kevin J. Anderson Jedi Search, Dark Apprentice, Champions of the Force 1994 Paperback Bundle

This bundle is all three books of the Star Wars Jedi Academy Trilogy by Kevin J. Anderson, Jedi Search, Dark Apprentice, and Champions of the Force, in 1994 Bantam Spectra mass market paperbacks.

Jedi Search shows the most wear, with spine reading creases, a crease on the back cover, and a curled front corner, while Dark Apprentice and Champions of the Force have solid covers and every page in all three is clean, all shown in the photos.

After the fall of the Empire, Luke Skywalker sets out to train a new order of Jedi Knights, while Han Solo and Chewbacca are taken prisoner on the spice mining planet Kessel.

Questions buyers ask

Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.

Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.

I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.

I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
