X-Wing: The Bacta War

X-Wing: The Bacta War is the fourth installment in the X-Wing series of novels, released in February 1997 by Bantam Spectra. It is a science fiction novel written by Michael A. Stackpole. Anthony Heald narrated the audio version.
==Publisher's summary==
While the Alliance fleet mounts a major campaign against a deadly warlord, Ysanne Isard has seized control of Thyferra, intending to use its precious supply of bacta to destabilize and destroy the New Republic. It falls to Rogue Squadron - undermanned, deprived of Alliance support and even weapons - to oppose Isard's dangerous designs, defeat her powerful complement of Star Destroyers, and free Thyferra from her iron rule. But when Isard discovers the Squadron's secret base, its ragtag group of pilots must scramble for survival in a winner-take-all battle against Isard's overwhelming and seemingly superior force.
==Continuity==
The cover of the novel does not match the text. In the book, Rogue Squadron does not battle all of Ysanne Isard's Star Destroyers, and no Mon Calamari frigates helped in the Bacta War.
