Episode 6:
Way of the Jedi
radio play by Brian Daley
based on characters and situations created by George Lucas
A LONG TIME AGO IN A GALAXY FAR, FAR AWAY there came a time of revolution, when Rebels united to challenge a tyrannical Empire. Now, it is a dark time for the Rebellion. Their base on the planet Hoth has been destroyed. The surviving Rebel units are scattered among the stars, attempting to elude the Imperial warships that hunt them, and waiting to regroup at a secret rendezvous point. But one Rebel must follow his own course. Commander Luke Skywalker obeys the instructions given him by the spectral image of his onetime teacher, Obi-Wan Kenobi. With the aid of his astro-droid Artoo-Detoo, Luke is bringing his X-wing fighter on a landing approach to the mysterious planet Dagobah. There, he is to further his training as a Jedi Knight, under the tutelage of the legendary Jedi Master, Yoda...
