Rating: Summary: Weird Review: I'd read it just for the scene where the salamander-thing is talking to Luke. So freaky, it's good. (Not that that's representative of the rest of the novel.)
Rating: Summary: Great book but a little off key Review: This was a great book it had tons of action and ramantic drama. The only problem is that the characters do not always act like the characters from the movies. Leia would never brush off Han like that, and Luke sometimes seemed like a wimp.Other then those few descrepencies the book is great.
Rating: Summary: Awesome Review: This is one of the best Star Wars Books I've ever read.It was action-packed, had cool knew characters as well as old and a tractor beam that keeps you stuck ready it. This is must for anyone, Star Wars fan or not.Its just real good book and I take my hat off to Dave Wolverton for writing it. (He also does a good job on his story of Momaw Nadon in Tales From Mos Eisley Cantina.I recommend that book too.
Rating: Summary: I don't believe it. Review: I can't believe that the strong-willed but kind princess we met in the movies is reduced to this nasty, snobby, selfish twit, who would dump Han the minute "Mr. Perfect." came along. She deserved to be smacked across the face throughout 90% of the book. Did Han have to *always* be refered to as scruffy? Especially next to Isolders "exquisite beauty". Please. After the end of ROTJ I cannot believe any of this could happen. I mean I could not believe that I was hoping that Han would dump Leia. She did not deserve him. Han, the real Han from the three movies ( not this pale imitation) would not have stood for all the garbage he was put through. And as for kidnapping her? Please, she was not worth it.
Rating: Summary: The boks was a gross disapointment Review: First off, what the author was trying to do while writing this book is unknown to me, but he managed to break time lines and protray the characters so horribly I'm suprised Lucas Film let him get away with it. 'King' Solo? 'Cuse me, in the Han Solo Trilogy it clearly mentions Han did made a through search for his ancestery and could find nothing except a possible great aunt, the change in his last name the auothor mentions is impossible, Han did know his own last name until the Wookie who cared for him on the Trader's Luck told him in was 'Solo'. Leia, in all her princess ways, would never have been so 'difficult'. 8 years with Han wouldn't be thrown aside after 2 minutes by Isolder. I wont even go into how appauled about how the author chose to protray Luke, cause it might just never end but let me just say this one thing. Atleast he could play Artoo right! (that was sarcasm if you missed it)I'll give the book one star, cause I liked the cover art. Thank you =)
Rating: Summary: SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MOVIE! Review: Like the title says "SHOULD HAVE BEEN A MOVIE" I just could not put this book down. I read it some time ago, and I finally decided to write about it. Full of Action and Drama. I recommend this book for any true SW fan. ( is there a 6 star rating....?) Darkjedi27@yahoo.com
Rating: Summary: Man was if awful! Review: I found this book to be just terrible. It was certainly not written to keep how the Star Wars characters act. Leia, Han, Luke, and everyone was written as if they were some 60s war protesters. PLEASE. I was throughly disappointed with this book and don't understand how it could have ever been included in the Star Wars series.
Rating: Summary: Been Better Been Worse Review: The reason This book did not get 5 stars was the HORRIABLE protrayal of Luke(My fav SW character) He loses faith in his abilities, get beaten by a ol hag and is doing this with no emotion AND is late for Han and Leia's wedding! The only cool Jedi ish thing he did was fly the flacon better than Han and Chewie put together! But he is an AWSOME pilot already(a point most authors ignore grrr..) But on the up side the Han-Leia thing was real sweet. And the tame rancors were really really COOL!
Rating: Summary: Praise to Courtship of Princess Leia! Review: A masterfully written, pumped up adventure with some of the most remembered characters of all time.This romantic, high action book, combines corlorful imagination and warm feelings to take you to a galaxy far far away...
Rating: Summary: One of the better SW novels Review: Great!, this book was what you call a nice surprise! I read 'children of the Jedi' just before I bought this novel and man, what a relief to see that great SW novels are still being written! The story never got dull, and the planets, characters and sofort that have been added are all a worthy addition to the Star Wars universe. I do have so critism though. For instance, I really can't believe that Leia would run of with some other guy so easily. And what are the Imperials actually doing exept getting killed? And why do Luke's powers appear to be greater than they were in novels that took place later? But aside from that, a great book, Zahn, Anderson, move over.
