Product Description

Product Description
A royal heir has been kidnapped - along with Jedi Master Tholme, who was protecting the boy. Now two of Tholme's former Padawans have teamed up to rescue their master, unaware of the forces arrayed against them. Their most immediate foes are a father and son team of Morgukai assassins, who have the training and the weapons to go toe-to-toe with Jedi. But behind it all are the machinations of the notorious Count Dooku!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Right Passage, 22 Jul 2004
By M. Lewando (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
'Star Wars: Rites of Passage' is, for want of a better word, Fantabulicious! The stylishness of the characters, environments and effects merely in terms of artistry is astounding, but the story itself is in no way lagging behind. As most people are, I prefer the original trilogy to the recent attempts (even though I can't wait for Episode III *yay!*) but 'Rites of Passage' manages to set itself within the realm of the New Trilogy, whilst keeping the atmosphere of the Original, y'see?

Whilst managing to combine atmospheric elements of the two trilogies, 'Rites of Passage' is also in a Realm of it's own, relying on the cut-throat dystopian culture the soon-to-be Empire is creating; not always shown quite so readily in the *Universal / PG* Cert'ed films. If you want to view this rather splendidly drawn dark background to the Star Wars Universe, whilst only tying in to the films slightly, then this is the graphic novel for you. If, however, you want Star Wars to remain a fairly innocent affair (why, oh why would you want to..?) then choose something else, like the Graphic Novel, 'Droids'... oh and if so, don't go to see Episode III.
