Product Description

Product Description

The war that erupted in "Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones" is nearing its boiling point. In "Episode III Revenge of the Sith", the fates of key players on both sides of the conflict will be sealed. But first, crucial events that pave the way to that time of reckoning unfold in a labyrinth of evil...On the planet Neimoidia, Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker set out to capture a treacherous ally of the Sith. Though they come up empty, their daring efforts yield an unexpected prize: intelligence capable of leading the Republic forces to their ultimate quarry, the ever-elusive Darth Sidious, whom they suspect has been manipulating every aspect of the Separatist rebellion. In the escalating galaxy-wide chess game of sabotage and retaliations, Sidious stays one move ahead. Then the trail takes a shocking turn. For Sidious and his minions have set in motion a ruthlessly orchestrated campaign to divide and overwhelm the Jedi forces - and bring the Republic to its knees.

1.0 out of 5 stars Major disappointment, 16 April 2007
By ShriDurga (Japan) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
There are several problems with this book beginning with the sad fact that there is no real story, just a loosely woven collection of vignettes featuring a collection of minor characters that are best forgotten. Vader never develops as a result of any of the events depicted between this book's covers, although the author claims that Vader makes a major breakthrough in understanding the darkside. Unfortunately, we're never shown why, how, or what that possibly means.

Secondly, the book is populated with minor characters (Vader isn't introduced until nearly page 50) that are really nothing more than fodder for the Dark Lord, characters that are stood up only so they can be knocked down. Except for their names, they are indistinguishable.

Which speaks to the major shortcoming of this book, the very poor writing. I was never once "drawn" into any of the scenes or the lives of the characters. The writing was flat, the characters d.o.a., and the story missing in action.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best..., 11 Jul 2006
By David Paton (Glasgow) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
...or the worst. This book is a useful insight into - as the title suggests - the rise of darth vader. For the first time we can gauge the struggle Vader has within himself and his contempt for Sidious. However as a novel the story lacks any proper direction or plot. The end is very flat and the Jedi characters are both undeveloped and unappealing.

In short this book should (and will have already no doubt!) be read by only devout star wars fans, people who want an explosive gap between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope will be left unsatisfied.

4.0 out of 5 stars High profile SF, 20 May 2006
The Star Wars series is undoubtedly one of the most popular of SF genres. The characters are brought to life by both well written stories and, in the films, good directing. The only criticism that I can find is the dependency on the ubiquitous good versus evil and it would be nice if the number of books featuring an alternative genre were to be increased. Two authors immediately spring to mind, John Wyndham and Julien Glazer both of whom cater for the intelligent reader's SF where the story endings are not so predictable.

I can only describe this as an 'enjoyable little read'. I fairly zipped through the well paced pages. Read more
