Summary: Great intro to a new addiction.
Review: I am new to the NJO and I am already hooked. This is one very exciting read. It may be contraversial to many Star Wars fans, but I for one enjoyed it. I look forward to delving into the rest of this series.

Summary: it started again
Review: Great book. Started a great series. I still cannot believe that Chewbacca died, but what a way to go! This book was amazing, no matter what others say about Chewbacca dying. Ive read each NJO and all of it is spectacular

Summary: Another reason why Lucas should write his own books
Review: I eagerly bought this book because I ADORE Salvatore's "Icewind Dale" trilogy....but he should stick to drow and not Jedi. I keep reading the "Star Wars" followup novels in hopes that somebody will do justice to Lucas' masterpieces, but with the notable exceptions of Timothy Zahn, Brian Daley, and Crispin, they're AWFUL, and this one is no exception. Killing off Chewie is only the tip of the iceberg....if a character HAD to be offed, WHY OH WHY couldn't it be the annoying C3PO? Don't waste your time.

Summary: Prime Vector Awesome Beginning
Review: I started reading this book right before September 11, 2001. It is a dark book and after this I could not contiune it. It is now 3 year later and I pick it up and read it again from begining to end. It is not nearly as dark as I remember. The characters are potrayed the way I feel they would be in this situation. This books also has its light funny moments that add so much when it looks like things will just get worse. The only real problem I had was Danni Quee. Lucus and his staff should have killed her. I know I have to deal with her throughout the series, but I only hope she gets better.

Summary: Wonderful
Review: This is the first Star Wars novel I have read, and it was a fantastic way to start. Exciting, tight, and moving, this is a piece that is a fantastic way to get fans of the movies to start reading the books and get sucked into the Star Wars world that has been expanded and fleshed out better than you could ever imagine.

Summary: 21 years after Rebel Victory...
Review: Unrest within the galaxy rears its head again. And, thus, yet another thrilling space opera adventure at its finest begins, sweeping us all away to "long ago in a galaxy far, far away"! Now, even though I grew up with the Original Series Star Trek and have a particular preference for it, I am also an avid fan of sci-fi in general and it would be an injustice on my part not to mention the many other old and new sci-fi works that led me to Star Trek and Star Wars and which have forever forged my love for all sci-fi works: "Stranger in a Strange Land", "Puppet Masters", "Foundation", "2001", "2010", "Rendezvous with Rama", "Ringworld", "Prey", "Halo", as well as books as new to the genre as "Advent of the Corps" and others.

Summary: Star Wars, or a demented fanfiction
Review: R.A. Salvatore is my favorite author and to see him writing in one of the most beloved franchises ever is already amazing in itself. Yet he goes out of his way to keep fans reading. Yes, some people may complain about the death of Chewbacca. However i prefer to see Chewie dit to save his best friends son than to watch him die in of old age. A character like Chewie needed to die a heroe and thats what salvatore did. He gave Chewbacca the perfect burial. Besides, i don't Chewie would have had any regrets. Overall, this is and amazing book which should be praised for its risk-taking.
