Rating: Summary: Great Book!!!!! Review: This is better than "Return to Ord Mantell". Zekk isn't entranced with Anja anymore, and Jacen FINALLY realizes how much Tenel Ka means to him and vice versa. The preview for "Crisis at Crystal Reef" makes it sond like "Crisis" will take the cake, though. What happens from the preview is that Zekk correctly builds his own lightsaber, and Anja finally realizes she is addicted to andris spice. She comandeers the LIGHTNING ROD to get to Kessel, to purchase or steal andris. The only problem is that you don't hear from Jaina, Jacen, Tenel Ka, Lowie, Raynar or Lusa. And also, about the 3-book ark, I think Raynar and Lusa should appear more. In "The Emperor's Plauge", they were highlited. But they have only made minor appearances in the last 2 books. Also, "Crisis" might be the last one! In "About the Authors", it says the 14 volumes! The Shadow Academy is 6 (books), the Diversity Alliance is 5 (books), and "Retu! rn" & "Trouble" = 13! And, how are Anderson & Moesta going to handle the Raaba thing?

Rating: Summary: A Must have for all fans! Review: This novel was one of the best in the Young Jedi Knights series
Rating: Summary: This was a great book! I hope KJA and RM never stop writing! Review: This was a really good book. (In fact, I think it just might be the best.) It was really exciting and action-packed! There were so many surprises that I gave up trying to figure out what would happen next! The story goes like this: Lando Calrissian shows up and asks the twins and there friends if they liked to go on a "vacation" to Cloud City. ( I've always liked Cloud City, that's one of the things I like about this book.) So, they gladly accept and go to Cloud City and have a great time, right? Wrong. Well, the part that they gladly accept is true, but they find out that Lando's partner, who was working on Cloud City's new amusement park "Sky Center Galleria"with him, is dead. The Jedi Knights decide to investigate his death, and, in the process, end up having some pretty exciting adventures. So buckle up and enjoy the ride!
Rating: Summary: Great job! Review: This was a very cool book. I liked almost everything about it. It was really fun. Kevin J. Anderson and Rebacca Moesta did a great job. I like the way Jacen and Jaina's charcters are shaping up. I can't think of any negative thoughts, so buy this book right now on amazon!!!
Rating: Summary: This book was very cool! Review: This was the best yet. Not only did they bring the storyline back to Cloud City ( I'v always loved that place), but that hole thing with Jacen falling off the city was very cool. And that guy Anja was working for, I can't think of his name, just leaving her hanging, he realy is a sicko.
Rating: Summary: A great addition to the Young Jedi Knights series! Review: Trouble on cloud city is an awesome continuation of the young Jedi Knights books. The way Kevin and Rebecca describe the character's feelings is what truly makes this book come alive. It brings out all of the subtle emotions that Tenel Ka feels towards Jacen and lets us know that deep down she really cares for him. This book is a must have and an excellent action packed read.
Rating: Summary: Great Review: Trouble on CLoud city is one of the best Books. in the series.Read it
Rating: Summary: This book deserves 10 stars! Review: Well, I have to say that this was the best Young Jedi Knights book to come along in a while. Oh, but don't get me wrong, they're all good, but a few definitly stand above the others. Namely, Lightsabers, Jedi Under Siege, Jedi Bounty, and The Emperor's plague. And now Trouble on Cloud City has joined the ranks of the great. In this book, Lando askes Jacen, Jaina, Lowie, Tenel Ka, Anja, and Em Teedee to come with him to Cloud City to help supervise a new amusement park he is building there. When they get there however, they find that Lando's partner has been murdered, and they set out to find who did it. Anja knows of course, or at least guesses that her master Czethros is at work and she struggles on many moral points concerning her new friends, and her growing adiction to Andris Spice. Actually, in this book I found myself softening a bit towards Anja, who I previously hated. I still don't like her nearly as much as the other characters, but I began to realize that she is a victim is her own right, since it isn't her fault she was mislead and used and duped into Andris. Also, this book focused a lot on Tenel Ka, who is my favorite character in the series, and allowed us to get inside her, and see her thoughts and feelings in a way that has not been done since the masterpiece of Lightsabers. Her reaction when Jacen fell of Cloud City was heartbreaking, and I'll confess, that the scene where they all thought that they would never see him again almost had me in tears, and I never, EVER cry over books or movies or anything. I liked how this book let us see how much Tenel Ka truly cares about Jacen. Speaking of Jacen, his crush on Anja seems to have ended, which may in fact be what opened me up to her a bit, since I was always adamently against that. Anyway, I would recommend this series to any Star Wars fan, no matter what their age, even though they are generaly geared towards the 10-15 set. Also, this book would have a stronger effect on you and generally make more sense if you have read the previous twelve first, though if that is to much work, it is at least reccomeded that you read the one before it.
Rating: Summary: Anderson and Moesta have done it again!! Review: What a relief after "Return to Ord Mantell"!! In that one, I just wanted to hit Jacen over the head and knock some sense into him!! But this one was better. The Anja character is getting deeper, starting to sound like a REAL young woman with REAL problems, not some she-woman. All the characters are progressing into their "realness" nicely. Tenel Ka cries. Zekk is not riddled with gilt. And above all, Jacen is not such a idiot!! But I am curious about the next book. How are they going to bring all this to a final resolve?? And what about Raaba?? This book does have it's few faults, but above all it's a winner. There are a few sceans [one in paticular] that are written with such talent and beauty. Way to go Anderson and Moesta!!! Everybody else, READ THIS BOOK!!
