Summary: top notch among Star Wars novels
Review: I, Jedi details the life of Corran Horn after the X-Wing novels. He earlier had passed on a chance to study with Luke and the rest of the newly formed Jedi Academy, but he begins feeling lost. Not certain of his path, he bounces from place to place, essentially trying to find himself via that literary technique known as a hero's journey.His adventures call upon him to use all his past experiences, from his origin as a type of federal agent (for the Corellian Security Force), to his time as an X-Wing ace pilot and member of Rogue Squadron, to the time he spent at the Academy. This story is told first person, and it is quite well done. While among the top as far as length goes for Star Wars novels, this book seemed to go too fast. There was nothing, in my opinion, in the way of dull or dragging parts. Just an excellent novel by an excellent writer.

Summary: Ecellent book one of the best Star Wars books ever written!
Review: Stackpole totally outdid himself with I, Jedi. It's simply a magnificent read, one level with Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy. I, Jedi is the first and only Star Wars novel written in the first person and follows the character Corran Horn from the X-Wing series. Almost al the other beloved Star Wars characters are featured in the story but not as the main characters. This gives the book a very refreshing slant. Stackpole also improves upon Anderson's Jedi Academy Trilogy, fleshing out plot and fixing inconsistancies etc. I highly recommend this book to anyone, and I simply cannot praise it enough. It is really a incredible creation.

Summary: A Uniquely Written Star Wars Novel
Review: The timeframe for I, Jedi surrounds the timeframe of the Jedi Academy Trilogy. Though the novel focuses around the poorly written Jedi Academy Trilogy, the book, I Jedi, is wonderful in its narrative and well developed characters. The novel also answers many of the questions that the Jedi Academy Trilogy does not answer. The novel is told in the first person point of view through the Rogue Squadron pilot and Jedi descendant, Corran Horn. At the beginning the novel he finds that his wife has been taken prisoner and the only way for him to save her is through developing his Jedi powers. The narrative focuses on Corran's experiences at the Jedi Academy and the teachings of Luke Skywalker. It is interesting to see what Corran's opinion on Luke's training techniques and the way he views how a Jedi should act. The novel's pace really picks up when Corran leaves the Jedi to find his wife. At that point in the novel, the character Taviria is introduced in great detail. Through her actions and views on situations, the characterization of the Imperial female commander, Taviria, is done so well that she becomes one of the most believable characters in the novel. What also makes this novel unique is that the author does not rely on most of the usual characters (Han and Leia) in this book. What the author effectively does is use the major Star Wars figures as a backdrop to the storyline. Only Luke is used as a major character with a lot of dialog. I, Jedi by Micheal Stackpole provides a unique look at how a Jedi is trained. Anyone interested in that aspect of the Star Wars universe would love this novel. This book is very well written, and I recommend it to anyone.

Summary: A good Star Wars book
Review: This is definately a good book; I like Mr. Stackpole's writing style, but I do think that it would be hard to follow if the read had no prior association with his other Star Wars novels. I hadn't read his other books, so I was a bit lost character-wise. But the book kept me reading, and I liked it.

Summary: More like 3 1/2 stars, the story's already been told
Review: This book isn't at all about story as it is about character. Corran Horn is a heroic Jedi whose belief system falls very much in order with that of Luke Skywalker. Many of the jedi who are developed in the expanded universe are made to be opposed in theory to Skywalker. Horn is a new hero to root for whose last name isn't Skywalker or Solo (or Jade which eventually becomes a Skywalker so...). But if you read the Jedi academy books, you are getting a lot of the same story. It is an original spin on an unoriginal idea. The Novels are better for having Horn as a character, fans owe this book a "wookie like life debt". But the reader should know, the story may ring familiar.

Summary: Star Wars
Review: This is the story of how Corran Horn became a Jedi. It is focused mainly on him, however, Luke does have a big part in the book as his Jedi Master.

Summary: One of the best books I've read.
Review: Scanning through the other readers reviews, I do have to agree with those that gave it a low rating because of the lack of "mainstream" Star Wars characters (Luke, Leia, Han, etc) but my response to that is- thank god! I'm getting rather sick of the same old characters getting in trouble and helping each other out. It's good to see (read about) a new face every now and then. Corran Horn is probably my favorite Star Wars character. He started out in the X Wing series, which is a brilliant series all together. I think it did help me to read the X Wing series before reading I, Jedi. It helped me admire him and appreciate his relationship with his wife Mirax. This should be the next book to be made into a motion picture. It really gives a good inside look at the Force, since the book is written in first person and all. We really get to dive inside the head of a jedi. Buy this book!

Summary: Reads like a bad comic book
Review: This is, without a doubt, the worst Star Wars novel I have read. It's incredibly cheesy, predictable, and utterly uninspired. On the dedication page Stackpole admits that he wrote it in one month and it shows. Luke and Mara are completely out of character. Luke is basically made to seem unintelligent and lost and Mara is soft. While developing this annoying characterization of Corran Horn, he tries too hard to make him seem good at everything (even better than Luke). It reminds me of a Steven Segal movie at certain points. It has maybe one redeeming scene *SPOILERS* where Corran Horn's grandfather (a pre-clone war jedi) is described absorbing all the energy from a light saber when it punctures a hole in him and causes it to shut down. That's all you really need to know though.

Summary: A keeper
Review: The I Jedi book is not short, about 570 pages. In it you find a series of adventures and challenges not seen in many of the the Star Wars books I've read. It is somewhat similiar to Shadows of the Empire but the hero is a Jedi Knight. About 100 pages in he becomes a jedi and is trained by Luke Skywalker on Yavin 4. He stays there until about page 300 then goes to find his wife who has been kidnapped. Corran then must come to grips with himself. Definately and good book.
