Jedi Under Siege (Star Wars: Young Jedi Knights)

Rating:
Summary: THIS BOOK IS SO COOL!...
Review: Out of all the Star Wars: Young Jedi Knights books; this one is the best! Part of the reason that I like it is that I'm a Princess Leia freak and this is one of the only Young Jedi Books that have her in it! The other reason is that it has a good plot and is not boring, (which some of the other books are) but I am not going to reveal the plot to you. READ THIS BOOK!

Summary: A great addition to the series, but not my favorite
Review: This book was not my favorite in the series, but I did like it. One of the good things about it was that it showed more of Han and Leia as parents, which is very interesting, and it gives the reader a better perspective on what kind of background Jacen and Jaina came from. I also thought it was very sweet how Jacen and Jaina invited their friends home with them for their vacation, though I personally would rather have gone home to my own family. :-) Also I liked how Anakin was in this book more than he usually is, since he has always been my favorite of Han and Leia's three children, with Jaina as a close second, since she is a very strong female, reminiscent of both Han and Leia. Zekk has never been one of my favorite characters, especially in this book, mostly because he didn't really seem neccesary, at least at first, just there so Jaina would have someone to like. But, with the excellent writing of this book, I found myself truly feeling for him at certain parts, especially after the banquet, even though he is not the sort of character who usually appeals to me. So, to sum it up this was a really great book, just not my personal favorite.

Summary: Good, but . . .
Review: This was a good one too, but it was my least favorite of the series. Actually, that's kind of funny because it's one of my best friends favorite, but that's not the point. There wasn't as much action at this point, and to me I didn't like the fact that Zekk was a traitor, because I have always thought he was way cool. This was a good way to set up for the next book though, and I thought it was descriptively written well.

Summary: Long Live YJK!
Review: There is not enough numbers in the world to describe this book!I stayed up til 1:30 with school the next day just to figure out whathappened. I changed my computer name to cyberjaina cause she is the bomb. I couldn't beileve the ending. Spectacular! I can't wait to read the next. This series is a must read! But start at the beginning! May the Force be with you!

Summary: Jedi Didn't Seem Under Siege Enough
Review: "Jedi Under Siege" lacked the exitement the other five books in the series had. Don't get me wrong, I liked it, but it didn't have as much action as I had hoped. Skywalker's Jedi just embarassed Brakiss's dark Jedi, while they just tried to kill the light side. There were no exciting battles among the students, just an ambush and then capture. It was a little far-fetched when Jaina tells Ackbar that she is in the TIE fighter. "Okay... I believe you." Someone else could haved used a cover. Other than these things, the book was killer. It was really brave when Zekk stopped all the students from being blown to bits, and when "clinically depressed" Tenel Ka told a really lame joke. It wasn't what I came to expect, but it was good.

Summary: thrilling, and exillerating
Review: This book was set in a very good place. The plot was great. this book could realy get your blood pumping if you are a die-hard star wars fan. The book might take you a while to finish but this book is worth the while. It has all that a scifi book needs. From aliens to space ships to epic battles. If you are a starwars fan and you havent read the book yet follow this and READ IT!

Summary: Totally Awesome!
Review: This is one good book. Actually, the whole series is great. I love Star Wars, so any Star Wars series is "the best", but this is my favorite. I thought it was so sad when Zekk was keeping them from going into the temple... but I digress. Buy this book, it's the best. But for goodness sake, read the other ones in the series first!

Rating:
Summary: Best Jedi book in the entire galaxy
Review: This book is suspenseful and a want to read kind of book. The characters were well written and let you know that you can conquer evil! One of the best characters in the book struggled between good and evil and the author wrote about this very well. I recommend reading these books in order.

Summary: Be aware if your a Luke fan..
Review: Although the books were really good (I've got the whole series), I was dissepointed to find that Luke Skywalker only made guest appearences, and was somehow wiped completely out of the picture in almost every book. So, if you like to be refreshed with new characters but the same general background idea (jedi knighting for good and justice) then these are the perfect books for you. But beware if youre a Luke fan...
