Review

No matter what you thought of Phantom Menace, you just have to love its visual effects and props. Episode I was absolutely radiant with special effects, making use of some 2,000 of them, dwarfing that of previous Star Wars installments and even the CGI-happy Titanic with its now-paltry 500. And the low-tech effects, the physical props of Star Wars, have always been unbelievably detailed, from Luke's scuffed-up speeder to Vader's slightly dinged-up helmet (don't pretend you didn't notice). Phantom Menace continues this tradition proudly, whether it's with Amidala's baroque headgear or the intricately machined (and deadly) armament on a droideka.

A page-turning droolfest, Episode I: The Visual Dictionary stops the film and zooms in on all this eye candy. As he did with the first trilogy in Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary, author-archaeologist David West Reynolds once again elucidates and itemizes with glee, combining witty, pseudo-scholarly prose with clear movie stills and excellent closeup photos of actual props and characters. Every personality and group of note gets its due in this well-labeled, picture-packed book, from the Jedi High Council to the podrace crowd to the sea monsters of Naboo. Craving a closer look at Maul's double lightsaber? Wish you could tell a Neimoidian's rank by the hat on its head? Need some ideas for filling out your podracer toolkit? This is the book for you. --Paul Hughes

From the Inside Flap

Star Wars: Episode 1 The Visual Dictionary brings DK's world-acclaimed visual style to the new Star Wars universe with high-quality annotated photographs detailing every important feature of the characters, creatures, costumes, droids, and equipment found in the first Star Wars prequel. Author David West Reynolds was given extensive access to the famed Lucasfilm archives at Skywalker Ranch in California. Key objects from the movies have been re-photographed and even re-created by expert consultants from Industrial Light and Magic, George Lucas's award-winning special-effects production company. The result is a unique and fascinating reference work that reveals the characters and creatures of the new adventure as they appear nowhere else!

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Ex-library in mylar sleeve.Good exterior condition, but binding on inside is slightly detached from spine. In search of utter authencity, DK flew their top cross-section artists direct to the Lucasfilm headquarters at Skywalker Ranch where they worked in the film production art department. There the DK team was able to map out the anatomy of each craft as it was created, using the original concepts as reference. The resulting large-scale "exploded artworks" are authoritatively complemented by David West Reynolds' in-depth text, data files and detailed annotation on each craft, presenting a complete, comprehensive and artistically remarkable work of reference for all Star War fans.
