The Fight for Justice (Star Wars Journal)

Summary: A wonderfull book that focuses in on what Luke thinks
Review: I read this book one day when I was grounded and it was so sitting-on-the-edge-of-my-seat, rivetingly good that I didn't want to come out! It is written in journal form about what Luke was thinking and feeling during A New Hope, though this book spans a little before it too. This was especially interesting for me, since Luke has always been my favorite character. Part of why I loved it is that it was not simply yet another retelling of the original story, but breathed new life into it, and made it even more interesting, and considering that I have seen this movie so many times I practicly have it memerized, that is quite a feat. My one complaint of this book was that, though the character of Luke was explored deeply and in ways that few other books have, all the other characters were pretty much left out with the exception of Leia, since Luke was thinking quite a lot about her at this time. But then again, when I write in my journal I usually don't focus on other people either, and since this is supposed to be Luke's journal, that does make sense. In short, this was a wonderfull book that I would reccamend to any Star Wars fan, especially those who love Luke.

Summary: Journey to the darkside of the universe
Review: In most of the Star Wars books, Luke is a trained Jedi Knight, so it's fun to read about what is essentially a kid ready to leave home, with no idea what the worlds about. Learning about death really catipults him into the realm of adulthood. He goes from being a clueless innocent imagining going on some whirlwind adventure to save a fairy princess. To becoming a young man whoose lost the parents who raised him, a mentor, and a childhood friend. It approaches that age old question, once you get what your looking for, do you really want it. And though we all know it will work out for the best in the end, you can see his emotional journey, history, and lost youth.

Summary: I, Jedi Wannabe
Review: Luke Skywalker tells his own story in this short, enjoyable "young readers" tale. Imagine A New Hope told in the form of "personal logs" from Star Trek and you'll have the idea. John Peel draws on such diverse materials as the radio show and the old Marvel comics to flesh out Luke's story, and takes some minor liberties with the movie itself. When all is said and done, we are presented with a Luke who must all at once deal with painful loss and grow up more quickly than anyone should have to. While this one is not as good as Princess Leia's journal, it is nevertheless worth the hour it will take to read.

Summary: I Loved this journal
Review: This is a GREAT journal that has LOTS of of info you didn't know about Luke Skywalker. You'll really enjoy this book and/or learn something new. I bought a copy a while ago, and I have read this more than 10 times I think. You really get into the book after reading atleast the first chapter. You can also find out more about the friendship with mysterious Biggs. Strap on for one of the best journals.
