EVERYTHING you wanted to know about Star Wars (and probably more than you need to) - By: Captain EO, 23 Sep 2007 
As I already own a lot of Star Wars books it now takes something pretty special to entice me to purchase something new - most SW-related topics have been exhaustively covered & even though I never thought I'd say it - I'm pretty much "all-Star-Wars'ed-out". That said, this "ultimate" edition looked a pretty neat addition to my collection & at around £10 looked good-value-for-money. What with it also being a DK release ,you always know you will get a quality product. Whether it be a travel book, film/tv tie-in or kids book - they're a quality publisher.
This particular book is a total study of EVERYTHING Star Wars, from the history of the universe, the events featuredin the 6 films, the expanded universe (books, comics, games, etc) behind-the-scenes stuff & also pages dedictaed to the fans, the toys, it's success, etc. I'd find it hard to lay out the sheer volume of info containedin this book but Ryder Windham does so extremely well. It's beautifully laid out, full of great pictures, sketches & photo's & the accompanying text will be of interest whether you're a young fan or die-hard geek.
I wasn't sure whether to award the book 4 or 5 Stars simply because it's a topic that's so dear to my heart but eventually decided that you simply couldn't cram more into 160 pages for a RRP £15 & gave it top marks. Great purchase for any young fan or to simply add to the collection.
6-year-old's dream book! - By: Maggie Mary, 21 Aug 2007 My 6-year-old son loves this book, pouring over it for hours on end & memorising facts & figures, story-line nuances, etc. I thoroughly recommend it!
