Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Jeter ruined the story of Boba Fett
Review: I only gave this book 1 star because it was the lowest rank allowed

Jeter ( along with some other authors who wrote SW novels ) should not ever be allowed to write about Star Wars again.

Zahn, Stackpole, Anderson, Crispen should be the ONLY honorary SW novel authors

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good Book Waiting for the Third
Review: Slave ship was a pretty good book. I did not like the fact that 90% of it was a story being told within the story. The writing was good with just enough detail, without spewing for 8-10 pages about the color of a bulkhead...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: To much talk, Not enough ACTION!!
Review: It was an ok book, but it could have been better. Its still a good book, but because there wasn't enough action, I gave it three stars.Even if every one says its boring, you still need it to complete the trilogy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Twisty and Turny
Review: I know a lot of people have said this book is @*&$ and all that, but I think they are wrong, It does have a few mistakes - but then what book does'nt, what I did like was the brillient twisty and turny nature of the plot and the way in which it is worked in very well with Kuat drive yards (one of the empires main suppliers) and Blake Sun (a powerful criminal organization) not to mention the empire itself! trust me, you have got to read this book (but read The Mandalorian Armor first!)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Booooooooooooring
Review: I'm as big a Star Wars addict as they come. However, when I got to the second book in this series, I got bored out of my MIND. The chapters droned on with seemingly no end. I couldn't keep reading for more than ten minutes at a time lest I fall asleep. Unless you're a diehard Fett fan, you might want to pass this one by.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: only for star wars addicts
Review: After reading those two books I really got the feeling that the star wars universe must be a great place for guys on the run. If it would not be for Fett, there would probably never be any 'hard merchandise'. Dengar is a romantic fool, Bossk a stupid moron and Zuckuss naive like Kelly Bundy. And that's supposed to be the toughest bunch of bounty hunters out there? I just hope IG-88 and 4-LOM don't show up and start acting like 3CPO! Those guys rather fit in with the Police Academy, not with any star wars trilogy. And what about that spider dude? I already forgot his name. What I always enjoyed about Star Wars was, that they kept it kind of simple. No fancy alien stuff like they have in Star Trek, although it is of course a big universe, where anything might exist. I think a creature that creates nodes and subnodes and subsubnodes (that probably will eventually kill their master, balancesheet seems pretty dangerous)is misplaced in a Star Wars novel. The book itself is actually not so bad and i like Jeters style. Fett is cool and Xizor sharp as usually and Neelah and Kuat seem to be interesting characters, but one thing that also annoyes me: how many people were there in Jabbas palace (or in Mos Eisley)? In every novel at least one new person shows up that was there at the time when Jabba fed his rancor with Solo 'at his side'. Well, I guess it stays that way, Zahn ist still the man (although he too likes to recruit at Mos Eisley).

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good idea ruined by bad writing
Review: When I first heard there was a series about bounty hunters, I was excited. I read the first book, then read this. I was thinking maybe this would be better than the first. Well, it wasn't. Jeter still obsessed over barves and Standard Time Parts. If Standard Time Parts were so freaking standard, why is this the only book with them. Not to mention the fact Jeter wrote Xisor was alive in the NOW section and dead in the THEN. And then there is Bossk. "Hi I'm Bossk, the retarded Trandoshan bounty hunter. I think I can kill the best bounty hunter in the galaxy on his ship! After all, my father was smart so I must be too!" And the whole renegade stormtrooper incident? How much sense does it make for Palpatine to pay millions of credits, at minimum, for a person he has no problem with? And then Boba Fett is such a BARVE that he totally betrayed Zuckuss for no reason. DO NOT READ THIS. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because it was a good idea

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Boba Fett Series Ever!!
Review: So far this is the best book out of the series, Boba Fett is shown as his usaul stoicisic way caring for no one but him self and merchandise. I can't wait for the third in the series to come out. (WARNING:Read the first book before you read this one or you'll get lost like I did.)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Nothing that should be read.
Review: I bought this book thinking that it would be as great as the original. YEAH RIGHT! This book was absoluitly horrendous. All the other bounty hunters acted like screw balls but were choosen to track Han Solo? Give me a break. I think Jeter needs to stay away from star wars.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Streching the plot to the point where nothing happens
Review: I really can't say much about this book because nothing really happened. It is difficult to develop the bounty hunter characters without the help the regulars (Luke, Han, etc.). It seemed like the ending was in very close but now I'll have to buy another book to find out. I thought that the conclusion could have been fit into this book and still keep it under 400 pages. But now I'll have to buy another book where probably even more of nothing will happen.
