Summary: A fine look into the Jedi mystique...
Review: While I, JEDI does, at times, read a bit sluggishly, the overall impact of the book is positive. Stackpole gives the reader quite a few interesting insights into the psychology and spirituality of the Jedi Knights, while maintaining an interesting plot and diverse array of settings and characters. Along the way, he even does an impressive job of playing revisionist-historian with some of Kevin J. Anderson's abysmal ideas from the JEDI ACADEMY series. If you're a fan of Corran Horn and/or Mike Stackpole's other Star Wars fiction, buy this book. If you're a fan of the Jedi legend and an enthusiast of the Jedi philosophy, you should *really* buy this book. There are quite a few Star Wars novels about Jedi Knights and Force tricks, but only one that deals with the *mind* of a Jedi- this one.

Summary: A Star Wars Novel that holds my interest.
Review: From the moment I started, I could not put it down. The problem with most of the Star Wars books is that the story jumps around from character to character. Sometimes to characters that are not interesting. Not this time. By writing this book in the first person, we are allowed to flow through the story uninterupped. Corran Horn is a man who is developing as the story developes and we get to go along for the ride.

Summary: Best book of all the books in the star wars universe!
Review: This is an awsome book. It continues the life of CORRAN HORN (who is by the way the best character of all time!) and other key characters from the x-wing series. It also has apperances by MARA JADE. (also awesome) it has lots of action scences and stuff. anyone who liked the X-wing books will love this!

Summary: A TERIFFIC AND WELL THOUGHT OF SOTRYLINE
Review: I love the way this story ties in with the other three stories of the JEDI academy. The readers can see the academy through a another Jedi student that was there. The book is filled with the excitment of the x-wings series and we can learn more about Corran Horn, and his developing jedi powers. It is a very good book.

Summary: It was a awesome!!!!
Review: The book continued the story of Corran Horn's life and had some great scenes in it. The cover art to the book was fantastic along with the story line. But the book had a few flaws,such as when the author mentioned Z-95 Headhunters had S-Foils. S-Foils? Any self respecting Star Wars fan knows Z-95s don't have S-Foils.

Summary: An in-depth look at the Star Wars universe
Review: Mike Stackpole in his latest Star Wars novel wisely chooses not to fall victim to the "Superweapon of the week" plot cliche which has plagued many of the authors in the Bantam SW series, apparently judging that this mold of plotline has been pushed well beyond saturation. Instead, he chooses an even greater challenge--a first-person novel taking place during Kevin J. Anderson's Jedi Academy trilogy. With the element of suspense effectively removed for the first half of the novel, *I, Jedi* must rely on characterization and detail to hold the reader's interest--a challenge which, considering the JA trilogy's propensity for implausible characters and "idiot plot" devices, borders on the impossible. Stackpole succeeds admirably. Characters who for all the personality they showed in Anderson's trilogy might as well have been cardboard cutouts become actual people, with likes, fears, attractions and repulsions. The lessons of the first class of the! Academy are expanded, and for the first time in the SW universe, we have a description of how it feels to sense and use the Force. When the book leaves the Academy to follow Corran on his infiltration and rescue mission, Stackpole really comes into his own, weaving the kind of fast-paced storyline with which he was so successful in his X-Wing novels but even further enriching it with an undercurrent of ambiguity and "second-guessing the narrator" unprecedented in a Star Wars novel. This is easily the richest, most complex book in the series of SW novels released by Bantam. Fans who prefer non-stop action may find it difficult to digest; but for those whose attraction to Star Wars is based as much in characters and details as it is in explosions and special effects, *I, Jedi* is a welcome effort.

Summary: Great book, but it has its faults
Review: Overall I thought this was a fantastic book. I loved the development of Corran's character, the scenes with Mara Jade were some of my favorites. Even though this was a much more interesting read of Jedi Academy than the original, some of it just seemed to be rehash, and almost pointless, at least till the last few chapters. I didn't really like the way Stackpole treated Luke's character, he was primarily portrayed as a unconfident teacher who didn't really seem to know what he was doing. He's the only Jedi Master in the galaxy, trying to reestablish an entire order that once spanned the galaxy, he's got a big burden, cut him at least a little slack! But I liked him in the book nonetheless. The storyline was great, the details made it seem a lot more realistic than previous novels with the exception of the Zahn Trilogy. I liked the little twist with Luke showing up at the ending, but the ending seemed rushed and was a little disappointing, could have been more. But like ! I said, overall a great book, the personal feelings and thoughts of Corran added a third dimension to the book, and the Admiral Tavira character was a much better villain than usual, not Thrawn or Vader scale of course, but still good. Despite its faults it is a great read and I would recommend it to anyone! Worth the 24 bucks!

Summary: Poorly written and redundant Jedi Academy material
Review: In the end I liked it but it was tough going at the beginning to get into. Stackpole's attempt at a first person account is quite stilted at first but seems to flow better once the story gets going. I thought it would have been much better if less time was spent on the Yavin Jedi academy story which we have already read about before and more time was spent on the new Jedi sammari and the twisted babe admiral. I liked somebody standing up to the two dimensional nature of Luke Skywalker and the great Lucas Good vs Evil dichotomy of the universe but it could have been so much more...I like the other Rogue Squadron novels better.

Summary: Great!!!
Review: I found this book too good to put down, after the first 2 chapters and thru the entire book. I'd also liked to say that I, JEDI woudn't of been as succesful Stackpole hadn't written the X-WING series, which was original and I really enjoyed reading I, JEDI and your series of STAR WARS books. I really hope that "mike" keeps up his STAR WARS novels a-coming, and expand the STAR WARS universe.
