Scoundrels by Timothy Zahn
4.0

This was a really fun and silly caper. It takes place between Episode IV and V and is about Han taking on a dubious heist in hopes of paying off his debt to Jabba. Since he's a smuggler and not a burglar, he assembles a whole crew from his network of shady criminal types. It's a really fun assemblage of characters (apparently this is where Zahn introduces Winter?) and has all the double-crosses, overly-complicated burglaries, and catty group dynamics that one wants from the genre.

It's a really, really good stand alone Star Wars EU caper and I definitely recommend it for a quick, fun read.
