5.0 out of 5 stars
Ever wanted to be Luke's sidekick? Now you can!,
By
This review is from: Return of the Jedi (Choose Your Own Star Wars Adventures) (Paperback)
With Return of the Jedi Being my favorite Star Wars movie, I was very eager to sit down and become part of the story in one of these "Choose your own adventure" stories. In the book, you play the role of Luke's Best friend, as you attempt to rescue Han and defeat the evil galactic Empire. Along the way, depending on the choices you make, you will zoom along with Leia on speeder bikes, join (Reluctantly) forces with Bobba Fett, set the rancor monster free in Jabbas palace, and my personal favorite, Go with Luke up to the Death Star and decide the fate of the galaxy. There are lots of really neat endings and plot changes in the book depending on what choices you make. There are lots of good and Happy endings, and of course, some very deppressing ones, but thankfully, there are not so many this time (Unlike the Empire strikes back one). One thing that really suprised me are the types of choices in the book. For instance in one critical part, if you choose the good bath, you get a bad ending, but if you take the good path, you get a good ending. My only gripe with this book is that you are considered a weakling too many times by Han and the Others. But it is still the best in the series of Adventure books. Dont miss it!The good: You are a main charachter in Star Wars! Lots of happy endings, really cool scenarios The bad: Some dissapointing endings And the ugly: You are often reduced to the role of "Idiot" a lot.

Great! Like having an adventure sitting down.,

This review is from: Return of the Jedi (Choose Your Own Star Wars Adventures) (Paperback)
I read the three Star Wars choose your own adventures and this book is my favorite of the three. It is like having an adventure sitting down.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Better than the first two...,
By "kandladin" (Castle) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Return of the Jedi (Choose Your Own Star Wars Adventures) (Paperback)
This books was excellent, considering the kind of book it is, and it really gave a clear picture of what it might have been like to be there. Return of the Jedi has always been my favorite Star Wars movie, so this book, perhaps for that reason alone it is better than the other two. However, I still don't like that they turned "me" into a self serving idiot, with no courage or moral values, certainly not the sort of character I want to be. I also didn't like that they specified several times that "I" am a boy, when I (and many other readers I'm sure) am a girl. And why did they have to make up this other character for "me" to be anyway? I would much rather have been Luke or someone, especially since Return of the Jedi has always been my favorite because it has many deep turning points for Luke, and I always wondered what he might have been thinking and feeling during that time. This book would be best for children twelve and under, though older people could read it as long as they keep in mind that it is a Choose Your Own Adventure book, and they don't expect an epic.
