The Hunger 4

The soft hum of the hyperdrive engines died, replaced by the sudden churning of the sublight drive. The Shroud had dropped out of hyperspace. Tash and Zak heard someone shout from the back of the Shroud, and another explosion rocked the ship. A cloud of smoke rolled toward them from the engine room-and something rushed toward them out of the cloud. It was Uncle Hoole. The shoulder of his robe had been torn away and blood trickled down his sleeve. "Uncle Hoole, you're hurt!" Tash cried.

"Look at the damage," Zak whispered, staring at the Shroud through a viewport. Smoke and flames poured out of the ship's engines. "Yes," Hoole explained. "I tried to trap Boba Fett in the engine rooms, but he was too careful to be tricked. He fired his wrist rocket into the engines to flush me out. If I had not shapeshifted into a fire-resistant Gregonian salamander, I would have been killed."-Chpt.2 pgs.17-18
