Summary: Some say Boba's was boring. Some say Les Mis was too.
Review: The Fett tale was the best in the collection by far. Now let me explain before you get all argumental. The story for once made Boba Fett a character and not some automaton. It gave him a past, present, and the idea of a future. If you're a good reader you honestly will appreciate his confrontation with Solo. I'm not saying that if you didn't like it you weren't a good reader mind you. It also developes his character well. It was also funny at parts "It truly was quite a remarkable for Imperial stupidity!" Well... you have to read it the same way I do to laugh... The story of IG-88 had a nice start but then slid into trademark KJA over-the-topness. He totally undermines the underlining lesson in A New Hope: Human spirit will always overcome machinery. Yet in this book Mr.88 actually overpowers the Emperor. Happen not gonna! The Emperor is the incarnation of evil. Evil will NOT be stopped by a machine! And the idea of the droid stormtroopers... bad, bad, bad. Remember, this is all supposedly supposed to really be happening when Return of the Jedi was taking place! Including some throw in character from ESB is really the one in charge of the second Death Star. Go ahead, watch the movie and tell me if you could beleive that. KJA had a nice story at first, then completely botched it up. I wasn't too fond of the Bossk story line. Dengar's was rather decent. Zuckuss and 4-LOM's was pretty good. But the shining jewel was Fett's. Read it from a different perspective.

Summary: Excellent stories...
Review: "Tales of the Bounty Hunters" was quite pleasing to read. The information presented in this book regarding the Hoth battle is very illuminating. Each story was a joy to read, particularly the stories involving Zuckuss/4-LOM and Bossk. While some may ridicule the plots or the endings, it is good to see the variety of endings that the reader is presented with. A definite "must-buy" SW book.

Summary: the best star wars book i have read yet
Review: I loved the way they portrayed the characters, especially dengar the way they showed his sorrow. The storys had a good base line. although the storys were short the explained more than they said. There was an simple to understand story. As a fan of the star wars universe this is a must.

Rating:
Summary: This book exceeds expectation
Review: Some would ridicule this book because of weak plots or odd twists. But if you look at the true purposes of the book, it's very good. I believe the purposes here are to give the reader a look at what goes on inside the skull of the hunters, tell the tales from their past that made them what they are, and to bring out the personality of the hunters. Overall, "Tales of the Bounty Hunters" makes the hunters into more than just guys in the background, and it does so very well. I certainly think it's worthwhile to buy and read this book.

Summary: Not a bad collection of stories
Review: This book was a well-written book. It summarized the stories of IG-88, Dengar, Bossk, Zuckuss, 4-Lom, and Boba Fett very well indeed. I especially liked the tale of IG-88 plot to take over the galaxy with droids. I thought the tale of Bossk was very confusing, however, and the tale of Zuckuss and 4-Lom was a little boring. This was a good read, but if you want a nice collection of Star Wars short stories, read Tales from Jabba's Palace.

Rating:
Summary: Some good stories, some bad stories, generally entertaining.
Review: While most of the stories I couldn't put down, there were those I'd rather have not picked up. Case in point, the story of IG-88. But that's the chance you take when you want to know what happens next.

Rating:
Summary: A Little Better Than Average
Review: It had some cool tales but a couple just really stunk. It might be worth your money if your really one of those hardcore Star Wars fans, but if not, you might wanna save your money for a better book that might come along. Overall though, it's a so-so book.

Summary: excelent except 4 zuskess and 4-lom
Review: if you are thinking about buying this book i would suggest it i thought it was very exciting book the only story that i thought that was kinnda lame was zuskess and 4-lom they wern't horrible but i think they weren't all that exciting. But i especilly liked Payback the tale of Dengar, and The last one standig the tale of Boba Fett those to me had a lot of action in them to me i thought they were very good.
