The Golden Age of the Sith (Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi) Review

Star Wars: Darth Maul Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)`Darth Maul,' just to set the record straight, takes place several months before Michael Reaves' novel `Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter,' and shortly after James Luceno's eBook `Darth Maul: Saboteur.'

Star Wars: Dark Empire II 2nd Edition Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This second volume of the Dark Empire series is worse than the original. Far worse. And that's quite an accomplishment given how horrible the first one was. The Emperor was killed in Return of the Jedi, revived and killed in Dark Empire, and returns yet again in Dark Empire II. As in previous incarnations,...

Tomart's Price Guide to Worldwide Star Wars Collectibles, 2nd Edition Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The "Tomart Guide" is the only Star Wars price guide you'll ever need. It is comprehensive with just about every production Star Wars item known to exist in the world. Did you know that they made "Star Wars Dog Chow" in Australia in the early 1980's?

Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace Movie Scrapbook Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Though this is a book for young children, at the age of 30, I found, after seeing the movie, it helped me to understand the characters, planets, weaponry, and so much more. Do you know what determines the color of a light saber? Or how a Jedi is determined and at what age they start training? That and...

Music from The Star Wars Trilogy Special Edition Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This book contains 14 songs from the "Star Wars: Special Edition" trilogy (Episodes IV-VI).

Hero's Guide (Star Wars Roleplaying Game) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)In a very basic sense, the Hero's Guide is like an advanced expansion of the Revised Core Rulebook, but it's much more than that. The main purpose of this book is to provide tools for the player- and it definitely delivers. Gamers looking for long sections of background and history are advised to go...

Star Wars - Dark Forces: Jedi Knight Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Soldier for the Empire is a rather odd graphic novel. It combines a short book with illustrations that vary from strong to below average. It expands on the Dark Forces series of video games, and follows Kyle Katarn from his days as an Imperial agent to becoming one of the most trusted agents of the Alliance,...

Secrets of Naboo Campaign Pack (Star Wars Roleplaying Game) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)As the first real supplement for the new Star Wars Role Playing Game from Wizards of the Coast, `Secrets of Naboo' could have had a little more...well, a little more. `Secrets' is a complete misnomer, because it reveals nothing that could be considered unusual or out of the ordinary. In fact there are...
