5.0 out of 5 stars People, these were wrote for children! Not adults!, March 5, 1999

This review is from: The Glove of Darth Vader (Hardcover)

These books were meant for children NOT ADULTS! Therefore they need not be constant with the other books that were made for big boys and girls! I really don't think a child will care weather or not Luke flies a Y-wing or X-wing or if it doesn't correspond with the Thrawn trilogy! Children most likely wouldn't be found reading a novel like Heir to the Empire anyway! I bought this book for my friend's younger brother and I skimmed through it. No, TARKIN WAS NOT THE ONLY GRAND MOFF! IN THE MOVIES YES, BUT IN THE GALAXY, NO! DARTH VADER WAS THE ONLY DARK LORD OF THE SITH IN THE MOVIES BUT THERE WERE OBVIOUSLY MORE OF THEM BEFORE HIM! If you're mad at this author for it then also be mad at Zhan because in the Hand of Thrawn saga one of his bad guys is (suprise suprise) a Grand Moff! These stories entertained my friend's little brother greatly. He felt like he was like his big brother and me who were always talking about all the Star Wars novels. These are excellent books for the younger generation that they were meant for. Face it. Star Wars isn't just for the 20+ year old age group it once was. The Special Edition changed that, therefor it was a success.

This review is from: The Glove of Darth Vader (Paperback)

I loved this book! The first time I read it it took me about 5 days but it was good. A lot of stuff that happened would never be in a Timothy Zahn type EU. The book is more aimed for ages 7 to 11 with the simple vocabulary and the pictures. It also isn't very graphic when someone gets killed. A typical killing part would be "Luke swung his lightsaber at the stormtrooper and he fell to the ground." But, even though it is old, I love it anyways. I especially love the fight scenes and the characters. There is also a part where they harbor whales and like take their blubber. 'Zorba the Hutt's Revenge' , the sequel would have to be my favorite but I have always loved this one.
