5	''Another Hope'' is an AlternateUniverseFic re-imagining the events of ''Film/ANewHope''. Mixing familiar elements of the film with new material, the story draws inspiration from and mixes in elements from the prequels. The text mainly deals in minute details of Death Star, the politics of Darth Vader's henchmen and insight into Vader and the Organas. It also adds an original version of Ryoo Naberrie, described as a "gutsy underling on the Death Star." Additionally, Biggs Darklighter, a minor character in the original film, is [[OCStandIn given an expanded role]] in the fanfic.

7	Jareo had the book [[VanityPublishing vanity published]] through her [=WordTech=] Communications Company and put up for sale via mainstream channels such as Amazon, claiming it was okay to do so as only her family knew of its existence at the time. Nevertheless, Creator/{{Lucasfilm}} soon issued a cease-and-desist order and Jareo ceased publishing. Ultimately, the whole debacle stirred considerable debate over the line between fanfiction and plagiarism and paved the way for later works such as ''Literature/FiftyShadesOfGrey'' and ''Literature/TheMortalInstruments''.
