Star Wars Jesus - A spiritual commentary on the reality of the Force Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Although there are several books out looking at the spiritual dimension of the Star Wars movies, and although there is even a subsection of Christian ones, this one has the most insight and usefulness. The author does not stick with just one or a few of the movies but takes on all six. Christians will be amazed to see how much inspiring spiritual truth can be found in these films, some of the most popular ever created. I daresay this book could be used along with the films as a devotional. I think non-Christian readers will be challenged. It is de rigeur to find Eastern thought in the works of George Lucas. But a "strong reading" such as Grimes supplies is going to turn the world upside down for a lot fans.

Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force (Star Wars) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The "Essential Guide" series to the Star Wars universe has (perhaps surprisingly) never had a book devoted entirely to the "Force". And this one does not disappoint! The attempt at an "in-universe" historical style (supposedly, the "author" is a Jedi in the New Jedi Order) makes it immersive and fun to read. The information deals with a wide variety of Force-related subjects that any Star Wars fan would be interested in: from the origins and history of the Jedi and Sith orders to the construction of lightsabers and Jedi martial arts. The only thing that I personally felt to be missing is a more "scientific" or "physical" explanation of the Force and its workings (like in-universe scientific theories on how the Force is produced and how it interacts with regular matter and energy), but that might have conflicted with the "historian's perspective" that it adopts instead.
Despite any shortcomings in the text itself, however, the illustrations alone make it worth the complete 5 stars! They are simply breathtaking... and the amount of time and sweat put into them by the artists must have been staggering. It's strange to say it, but it feels more like an art book than a dry listing of Star Wars lore! Any Star Wars fan would love these wonderful works of art!

Star Wars: Feel the Force (DK READERS) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Exactly what is the force? How does it work? What can it do?
Benjamin Harper answers all those questions in "Feel The Force". This book explores the battle between the dark side, and the light side. Why is Darth Vader so dangerous, and why does he turn his back on the dark side? Learn how Yoda can jump amazing distances for someone so short.
Awesome imagery in this book.
Tim Lasiuta
