This review is from: The Brain Spiders (Star Wars: Galaxy of Fear, Book 7) (Paperback)

Zack, Tash, and Hoole Go to see Jabba the hutt for help. While there Tash and Zack meet monks that can make brain transfers from one being to another or into a brain spider. But its getting out of hand.

I just finished reading this for the therd time last night. This is just one of those books that you can't put down. Its got a great plot but i'm not going to tell you the end. But for the people who want to know what that spider thing is craling past the door of jabba's palice in return of the jedi is, read this book.

I loved this book! Zak and Tash go to Jabba the Hutt this time. And few things happen. This is a great book for kids and adult that are crazy about Star Wars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just one minor problem . . ., February 29, 2000

This review is from: The Brain Spiders (Star Wars: Galaxy of Fear, Book 7) (Library Binding)

In the series of these "Galaxy of Fear" books, there is a part when Hoole's ship, the Shroud, was heavily damaged. In "The Brain Spiders," the ship suddenly reappears in prime condition. I think John Whitman should have wrote about how the ship was repaired. My best guess would be that the Rebels helped them. If that is true, than John Whitman should have given the Rebellion some credit.

Overall, however, "The Brain Spiders" is a good book, despite the disgusting title and hologram cover of Jabba the Hutt. I loved the interaction between Zak and Hoole. This story also displayed an everyday problem with age differences between friends, instead of a crazy, bizarre, scientific plot.
