Synopsis:
Glorious full-color illustrations create a seamless overview of the entire Star Wars universe, including material--intricate cross-sections, vivid stills, and detailed 3-D maps--from all six movies in the saga.
Reviews:
Grade 4 Up–An encyclopedic view of the primary locations of all six Star Wars films. Logically arranged in the chronological progression of the movies, the text treats the material as if it were truly nonfiction, breathlessly recounting the details of the history and geography of planets such as Tatooine, the home of Luke Skywalker, and the Ewok Village from the final film. While the focus is on settings, some events are covered, such as battles and speeder chases. The book depends primarily on illustrations with some photographs from the films. The artwork has a great amount of detail on each location, and cutaways show multiple levels of such places as the Galactic Senate. The books design shows a good deal of imagination, to the point of including topographic maps like those in National Geographic, with lines and other annotations charting the course of various battles, and makes good use of foldouts. While this title makes for interesting browsing, it imparts more information than casual observers will care to process and is only for rabid Star Wars fans who cant get enough of George Lucass creation.–Tim Wadham, Maricopa County Library District, Phoenix, AZ
