The End Starts Now!
This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker:
The Hero With No Fear is what he's called, but it isn't true. Fear is his constant companion. He fears for those he loves, especially his secret wife, Padme Amidala. Dark secrets are revealed and loyalties are pushed to the breaking point. His love and dreams are falling apart before his eyes. No longer does he feel he can trust those he's considered his closest friends. He isn't even sure anymore the side he has been fighting for in the Clone War is the right side.
Revenge of the Sith doesn't start out very dark, with lively banter between Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi, but as it progressed I found it to be the darkest, saddest, definitely the most emotional Star Wars book I've ever read. It was obviously one of the more difficult books to write but I think Matthew Stover did an excellent job.
As a hardcore Star Wars fan I found everything I would want in this book: the greatest lightsaber duals ever dreamed up; enough built up suspense to drive a person nuts; an in-depth look at all the characters in the book, from the small role of Count Dooku to the Sith Lord, Darth Sidious; and a climax to end all climaxes. However, I do think that a Star Wars fan of any level could enjoy it and won't become very confused if they haven't read all the book between Episode II and III.Lire l'avis complet...
Win-Win
I am very pleased with this product. Not only was it in surprisingly good condition, some minor wear on the cover is all, but the story was also quite well written. I'm not big on reading movie novelizations, SW movies come before their books which is opposite in most other cases, but this one is making me rethink that. As always the book contains more details than the movie; however, many of these additions are very important to the overall story/plot should've been included in the movie in some way. The book also ties in events from other novels not written by the author, and some that were by Matt Stover but it's always nice to see cooperation in writing for a larger universe. If you're a SW fan I would recommend not overlooking this book even though you've probably seen the movie multiple times.Lire l'avis complet...
Amazing, brilliant, well-written novelization
It's obvious what's going to happen to Anakin. He will turn to the Dark Side and become Darth Vader. But the way Matthew Stover wrote it, you just felt for him. Palpatine was the real villain. He was twisting every word anybody good ever said to Anakin in ways to serve him. He blinded Anakin to what he wanted him to see. He promised to help him save Padme' and in the end, he just let Anakin believe that Anakin had killed her. The end had me in tears. The way Matthew Stover wrote, the emotions jumping out of the pages, was just brilliant. It genuinely hurt to read about Anakin's downfall and that is the sign of a great book. Of course, he had amazing material to go off of. Although, George could've taken a few dialogue queues from Stover. All joking aside, this is one of my top 5 Star Wars books ever.Lire l'avis complet...
Revenge of the sith by: Matthew Woodring Stover
This books is the explosive conclusion to the Star Wars movie saga. This book wraps up the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker, the ushering in of the Galactic Empire, The Final times of the Old Republic Senate, the birth of the skywalker twins, the death of Anakin Skywalker, the birth of Lord Vader, the end of the Clone Wars, and....... The Jedi Purge. This book goes greatly in depth in the movie Revenge of the Sith, and includes extra scenes and moments. Get into the mindset of Count Dooku as he battles the now powerful hero with no fear: Anakin Skywalker, The thoughts of Obi-wan Kenobi while imprisoned by General Grievous, the arrest of Chancellor Palpatine, and many other memorable moments. This book was an awesome read, and i recommend it to anyone who wants to further their knowledge of Revenge of the Sith and the Star Wars Universe.Lire l'avis complet...
A Revenge For The Ages
This is the novel based on 2005's film Revenge OF The Sith. While the pace of the novel is much slower than the film the novel takes a deeper perspective into Anakin Skywalker and what's it like to be him the book goes to highs and lows which seems over the course of a few fateful days that change Anakin and The Republic Forever. The book is a good conclusion to the Clone Wars era being this is the final showdowns and all the secrets being revealed of past novels. I found the novel to be much sadder than the film which was a surprise maybe cause the depiction of Anakin is more personal but the ending is definitely something to think on. It is a story that is happening right now feel and the story of a hero's wanting power and it corrupting his ideals. Palpatine is so crafty cunning convincing that you actually start to believe the Jedi are evil like Anakin does ! The Jedi are wiped out and the Republic is destroyed ! The book is a political and personal tragedy the start of dark times ending with hope for the future. A must read novel for any star wars fan.Lire l'avis complet...
