5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, challenging and educational, August 5, 2008

By	A. Whitney (Silicon Valley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have to admit that I am *not* obsessed with Star Wars. I've seen Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi a few times each, but the remaining films only once. I haven't read the comics or books, either. So, I went into this expecting to have my light saber handed to me.


That being said, I still had fun with this interactive trivia book. It's electronic scoring module starts in random question mode, which selects questions from anywhere in the book. You can also change the module so that you choose which questions to try. Much better for someone like me who is "familiar with star wars".

The questions range from easy (what color is Obi-Wan's light saber?) to downright difficult. So, I think all fans will find something they like. After a few questions that were obviously from the movie that I got wrong, I wanted to go back and watch the movie again to see what I missed.

This is a great gift for a Star Wars fan. 2,500 questions will take A LOT OF TIME to get through (maybe 18 hours or so) so it's a good value for $29, even better if you get it here for a discount. The batteries are replaceable, so you can use it as long as you'd like. I am only partially through it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Trivia Book Worthy of a 5 Star Review, July 25, 2008

By	Zachary Ferguson "Boredom Extraordinaire" (Phoenix, AZ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is awesome. For all who have ever played Star Wars Trivial Pursuit or any other game and wished there was more, here it is.

This book combines all types of trivia from all 6 movies, as well as E.U. information and real life info, i.e. actors and such.

This book, has, like it says, 2,500 questions. I was amazed at how different they are and how broad the spectrum runs for the questions. Some are short, easy to figure questions, such as changing the name of a character, where others are extremely difficult, like having to know what specific genome of a species a certain character is, or who a certain droid was from the movie.

I wholeheartedly believe this to be the best Star Wars trivia book out, and recommend it for both new Star Wars fans and hardcore fans that know every little nuance of the SW Galaxy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for people who think they know everything about Star Wars!!!!, February 13, 2009

By	stacy6309 "stacy6309" (Telford, PA) - See all my reviews

I purchased this book for my step-father who is a HUGE Star Wars fan. He collects all things Star Wars and had to have the book! We were all surprised that the trivia questions were so diverse on all aspects of the series. He was even shocked to find that there were some answers he did not know (which I thought impossible). This is a wonderful purchase for anyone who loves Star Wars and is interested in the trivia from all 6 movies! Even his 6th grade students loved playing with it!!
