Star Wars (0 ABY - 4 ABY): Tales From the Mos Eisley Cantina Anthology - TRADE WINS: THE RANAT'S TALE: (Original & Unabridged AUDIOBOOK)
Between larger projects, I am clearing my backlog in Post-Production... I thought this story, TRADE WINS, and its accompanying story, SWAP MEET, would be an interesting change before the release of Black Fleet Squadron Vol. 2 - Part 2. Enjoy!

Have you ever wondered about the events leading up to Han Solo's fateful meeting in the Mos Eisley Cantina (as seen in Star Wars: A New Hope)?
This is the story of the Ranat, Reegesk, who was sitting at a table during Han Solo's fateful encounter with Ben Kenobi & Luke Skywalker and takes place in 0 BBY.
Storyline:
Reegesk enters the Mos Eisley Cantina looking to trade away his items in his search for a power source for a bootleg vaporator his tribe is secretly building in order to have less dependence on moisture farmers.
He finds customer in Het Nkik who, through the bartering process, shows a keen interest in the Ranat's Tusken battle talisman, examining it carefully with his hands. In return Reegesk wants Nkik's blaster.
The Jawa, however, is reluctant to give up his weapon, carefully stating that he cannot afford the price of talisman until the following day but gives a deposit in credits after bartering a higher price than Reegesk expected.
Anthology Detail:
"Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina Anthology" features sixteen short stories set in and around Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina on Tatooine. It was edited by Kevin J. Anderson, and was first published on July 1, 1995 by Bantam Spectra. The book was followed by Tales from Jabba's Palace, and later, Tales of the Bounty Hunters. The first three "Star Wars: Tales" anthologies: "Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina", "Tales from Jabba's Palace", and "Tales of the Bounty Hunters"; were reprinted in the 1997 compilation book "Star Wars: Tales".
