Once finished , Skywalker moves to detain Fett , but a giant Space Slug incapacitates Anakin , leaving Fett to destroy the behemoth . He shoots the slug several times in the head causing it to whimper back into cover and Skywalker agrees not to arrest Fett , but tells him to go to Coruscant as Fett revealed he had information vital to the Galactic Republic . On arriving in Coruscant airspace , he is escorted by Governor Tarkin and Luminara Unduli to the Jedi Temple . Inside , Fett makes his way to the visiting quarters , passing Mace Windu ( who he blames for his father ' s death ) on the way . In his quarters , Fett contacts Jabba the Hutt ' s contact on Coruscant , Hat Lo . Boba waits at a landing dock for Elan Sel ' Sabagno , who flies him to a bar that Hat Lo owns where Boba collects various weapons before returning to the Temple with Elan . Once inside , he races to Windu ' s quarters only to be too late . He breaks through a window and flies to the Senate Building . He breaks into Palpatine ' s quarters and finds Windu waiting for the Chancellor . They engage in a fight , with Windu eventually taking out most of Fett ' s weapons . The fight ends in stalemate with each about to strike when Palpatine arrives and scolds Windu . Boba then tells Palpatine about the trap that the Clone army has become because of Count Dooku . Palpatine acknowledges that he knows and reveals his intentions indirectly to Boba . The Chancellor then gives Boba a cube of credits to keep him quiet . Boba returns to " Slave I " to contemplate his future , finally shedding his past . Behind the scenes . On the front cover , Anakin Skywalker ' s appearance is similar to how he looks in " " . His glove is actually placed on the incorrect hand , however . Asajj Ventress and her Fanblade starfighter are also on the cover . She makes an appearance in a dogfight against Boba , despite the fact that she apparently deserted the Separatist cause after the Battle of Boz Pity only one month earlier . Two " Imperial " - class Star Destroyers are shown on the cover , but this would appear to be an oversight as these vessels do not feature in the story . Another apparent error has Boba ' s helmet being shown on the front cover bearing a dent it will not receive until after the events of this novel , in a fight against Vader . Wilhuff Tarkin appears in this book , prior to his becoming a Grand Moff . Boba Fett confronts Mace Windu to avenge his father ' s death . Many fans had expressed their wishes to see such a confrontation . Fett , then a hot - headed child , was able to match the Jedi Master , but the fight was ended before either was killed . Darth Vader ' s future impression of Boba Fett as a highly capable and reliable bounty hunter may have been shaped by this event . Boba Fett re - paints his father ' s armor in the green and red livery that will later achieve infamy . On the spines of later editions of this title , the word " Wars " was accidentally omitted from the name " Star Wars " . This book incorrectly states Boba Fett had never been to Coruscant before , but he in fact did so in " " . The book incorrectly describes Jedi Luminara Unduli as having dark eyes and bronze skin , when she has bright blue eyes and olive green skin . At the end of the story Boba Fett entertains the notion of visiting the Regional Sector Number Four ' s All - Human Free - For - All on Jubilar , indicating that the events at the start of the short story " " happen immediately thereafter . However , according to the timeline this story takes place at least six years earlier . Of course it would not be impossible for Fett to visit the games before that . In , Boba attempts at getting revenge on Mace Windu by infiltrating his Jedi cruiser and when made the ship crash he used Jango Fett ' s helmet by placing a motion sensitive bomb in it . Boba at this time had no Mandalorian armor . Instead , he wore dark grey colored jumpsuit with a brown belt with a twin blaster holster and white kneepads with boots that seemed very similar to the boots his father had worn . Cover gallery .
