I'd hoped for better. Didn't grip me, didn't read particularly well, good illustrations, also failed to educate on any of the star wars unanswered questions. Story was also peculiarly contrived and unconvincing.

This book is no longer part of the star wars canon, and yet we are being charged more than 6 dollars for it. Seems like something the trade federation would do. Time for some lightsaber diplomacy, I'd say... nevertheless, this is a great story and worth a read. Get it from your local library, though. Don't give these corporate psychopaths a dime of your money.
