Review:Loved this novel! James Luceno does a phenomenal job of crafting personal, powerful, yet wide-sweeping stories and its just fantastic! I love how they incorporated a lot of other fun easter eggs from other new cannon stuff, and set up deep relationships for characters that are in the movie! I'd highly recommend this novel to any Star Wars fan! Read more

Review:I read the Kindle edition of Thrawn: Alliances.

As part of the new Disney canon for Star Wars, Thrawn: Alliances is the follow-up to Zahn's previous Star Wars: Thrawn novel.

Pairing Vader and Thrawn together, Emperor Palpatine sends the duo on a mission to investigate a disturbance in the Force in the Unknown Regions. Intertwined is another story in which Jedi General Anakin is on a personal ... Read more

Review:I'm looking back on this book as I remember it when I was fourteen and the movie had just come out. It was cool because it had scenes in that didn't make it into the film, although they were filmed. The book was superior in some ways because it was written before the script was finalized. The other books, I believe were written from the script. I loved this book back then and still do love it. It's fun, full of interesting characters, and full of action. All you need is the soundtrack to settle ... Read more

Review:"Star Wars: Labyrinth of Evil" is written with wit and style, and has a well crafted, exciting plot. It takes us from where the novel "Yoda, Dark Rendezvous" leaves off, to where the movie "Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" begins. It also puts a blazing end to the on-going Clone War, and lays the foundation for the Galactic Empire that the Sith Lord, Darth Sidious, is plotting to establish. It begins with a big battle sequence. It then goes through one exiting action sequence after another, p... Read more

Review:STAR WARS: PHASMA is a book which I think really shows what the biggest problem with current Star Wars tie-in fiction is, which is the fact nothing is allowed to happen. This is the life story of Captain Phasma, the cowardly but dangerous leader of the First Order's Stormtroopers who brought down the shields of Starkiller Base when someone pointed a gun at her.
The entirety of the book is meant to reconcile the fact she's meant to be terrifying but rolled on her fellow Imperials at the first ... Read more

Review:This is a great book. A new enemy has entered the universe and they show just how tough and determined they are. They are here to take over, believing that the Republic is theirs as told to them by their gods, and they will do anything to anyone that they consider inferior to themselves. There is a major character death in here, but it is necessary to show just how dire the threat of this new enemy, the Yuuzhan Vong, is and to let readers know that this is one fight that the Republic may or may ...

Review:The title of "Battlefront" on the cover is false advertisement; this is easily the most boring novel of all the new Star Wars books. It's not a poorly written book by any means, but it's certainly not what you would expect as a followup to the action packed Battlefront: Twilight Company. This book is supposed to introduce us to the Empire's most elite special forces unit, and yet in 300+ pages they (minor spoilers ahead) barely manage to take out a tiny Rebel cell of around 10 people (end of min...

Review:Intensely exciting!!!Amazing prelude to the rest of the Star Wars story!!Many truely lost their lives for the cause of freedom & this book shows us their courage, determination, and steadfastness in fighting against evil!!! A book for the ages!! Read more

Review:If NJO continues down this road...I'll never ever stop reading these books. The exploration and exploitation of Jacen was phenomenal. It took awhile to get rid of his whinyness, but it's a good thing. The philisophical side of the book has forced me to read it several times already. Things will never be the same in the Jedi Universe. I have to agree with most other reviewers that the series slowed down too much in the middle books but has come back at light speed to keep us all interested. ... Read more
