highly recommended

Informative, colorful, a fun book.

This book provides the background material for the movie and gives the names of more of the characters. The mechanical details are excellent. I especially enjoyed the costuming minutiae.

Get this or You'll regrett it!

This dictionary is so full of cultural and character information that it will keep you fascinated for hours on end. Almost half of the book describes things you never get to see in the movie, and it goes to show how detailed Lucas etc are when it comes to creating the Star Wars universe.

It answers questions like why is Mauls face like that, why is Amidalas face like that ^_^ who really does pretend to be Amidala, why Jar Jar is exiled... Very interesting.

I'm seven and I loved the Battle Droid page!

The page on Battle Droids was really neat because it classifies the droids by color and explains how they unfold and what their duties are. I have read that page over and over. My other favorite page is on the Jedi Council. It introduces you to all of the Jedi - even ones that were not in the movie. Very cool! Happy Reading and May The Force Be With You!

If you love everything Star Wars...

it's HIGHLY recommended you buy this book. It is awesome--the photographs are awesome, the schematics are awesome, the constructed models are awesome, the information is awesome... you get the point. David West Reynolds does a wonderful job of conveying information to the reader, and at holding the reader's attention.

A Great Gift

I bought this book for my nine-year-old son, but I had a quick peek first! As expected, the very next day I found the living room floor carpeted with drawings and diagrams he'd based on the illustrations. My only complaint would be that the book was a little thinner than I had expected, and personally, I'd have given the actors single pages and put the pod racers on the double-page spreads. I was particularly disappointed not to find a cut-away of the Radon-Ultzer engines - well, there's always the Incredible Cross-Sections book, I suppose!
