Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The penultimate installment of Legacy of the Force gets off to a slow start, has far too much material that doesn't drive the plot, but is nevertheless one of the more interesting chapters in the series. While you might not notice it among the large number of pages devoted to the Mandalorians, a few...

Triple Zero (Star Wars: Republic Commando, Book 2) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)It may be damning with faint praise but this is quite possibly the best written Star Wars novel yet. There have been good, even great Star Wars novels before, albiet not a whole lot of them. However, the best of them are well told adventure stories and little else. Perhaps they give some insight into...

Star Wars: Clone Troopers in Action (DK Readers, Level 2: Beginning to Read Alone) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"Clone Troopers in Action" is a primary look at the clones. Naturally this story begins on Kamino with Jango Fett. After explaining the development of the Grand Army of the Republic, the book moves into the various theaters of combat and explores how the soldiers specialize to work in different environments....

Hard Contact (Star Wars: Republic Commando, Book 1) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)In a rather ironic moment, Hard Contact is so far the Clone Wars novel that best exemplifies the common conception of the Wars--but it doesn't have the logo on the cover. As befits a novel based on a first-person shooter, Karen Traviss's Hard Contact is not a novel about sitting around and talking, as...
Star Wars: Fate of the Jedi: Backlash Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I like Aaron Allston and the "Fate of the Jedi" series has been pretty good but it feels like the core concept that the story is following is a little flimsy. It hasn't stopped me from reading them all and enjoying them, but it just seems like they're is something off about them.Click Here to see more...

Star Wars ABC Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"Star Wars ABC" is educational and fun for the youngest of readers. The format is the most remarkable aspect of the title; this is a board book. The odds are with this book that it could survive a direct assault by a Star Destroyer . . . so there's little chance that the hands of a youngster will do...

Star Wars Character Encyclopedia Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This delightful little book features just about all of the recognizable characters from all six "Star Wars" movies, including droids, creatures, and certain groups (like the Gamorrean Guards, Stormtroopers and X-Wing Pilots, for example). Even characters who I recognized but didn't even know the name...

Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace (Star Wars Instrumental Series) Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)After expanded releases of all the other three Star Wars movies, it was expected that someone would release an expanded edition of The Phantom Menace soundrack. Well, it finally happened, and of course it is worth the price tag. John Williams' 120+ minutes of masterly music is wonderful. The quality...

Obsessed with Star Wars Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I have to admit that I am *not* obsessed with Star Wars. I've seen Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi a few times each, but the remaining films only once. I haven't read the comics or books, either. So, I went into this expecting to have my light saber handed to me. That being said,...

The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Just received my Jedi Path Vault package and opened it up. I'll start out by saying that even the exterior packaging is very high quality. It came in a nice black cardboard box within another box, and within that had a wrapper that held the doors shut (which was hard to remove without damaging). Very...
