See the Star Wars stories you know and love from a brand new perspective! Stormtroopers are the iconic workhorses of the Galactic Empire, the tip of the Imperial spear, striking fear into the hearts of all those who would oppose them. Though until now, very little of their experiences have been shared. Follow the story of a particularly involved Stormtrooper through the epic battles between the Empire and the Rebellion that is doing it's best to destroy it. There's far more going on than you'd imagine from what you've seen on screen so far. This story is ongoing and is updated periodically as new parts are written, so add it to your Library to ensure you get a notification when new sections of the story is published. I'm also completely open to comments, suggestions and requests, just @-mention me in the comments to get my attention. Happy Reading!

There are some variances in style from country to country (and even from American publisher to American publisher.) **It may be easier to search the Table of Contents, as there is no rhyme or reason right now to chapter order.**
