Tales from Jabba's Palace, is an anthology of short stories about the minor characters seen in Jabba's Palace in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.
It is the second in a thematic series about minor characters from the original trilogy, all edited by Kevin J. Anderson, with cover art by Stephen Youll.
The final two books in the Tales series, Tales from the Empire and Tales from the New Republic, feature different editors and cover artists, and involve some EU characters.

Bloated and sinister, Jabba the Hutt might have made a good joke—if he weren’t so dangerous. A cast of soldiers, spies, assassins, scoundrels, bounty hunters, and pleasure seekers have come to his palace, and every visitor to Jabba’s grand abode has a story. Some of them may even live to tell it.…
