''[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Allegiance_(novel) Allegiance]'' is a [[Star Wars Expanded Universe]] novel by [[Timothy Zahn]]. It's set six months after [[A New Hope]].
As the title suggests, this book features people and groups who are having allegiance issues. Han Solo is resentful about how it seems like everyone is assuming that he's committed himself to the Rebellion, although he hasn't left yet, and while Luke Skywalker is utterly committed, he worries about Han and is very green. The five stormtroopers who form the Hand of Judgment desert and form a sort of vigilante group believing that the Empire has abandoned the ideals that they signed up for. Consciously, Mara Jade is absolutely certain of the rightness of the Empire, but she is on the hunt for traitors and there are numerous tiny hints that she's against various aspects. Meanwhile, Leia is sent to negotiate between various Rebel leaders who are threatening to leave, and speaks with a district head who claims to want to secede, but is really doing all of this to gain power.
Line 8:
A direct sequel, ''[[Star Wars/Choices of One|Choices of One]]'', was released later, right on the 20th anniversary of ''[[The Thrawn Trilogy|Heir to the Empire]]''.
Not to be confused with the computer game ''[[Allegiance]]''.
