Amazon.com Review

Playfully written as a primer for Rebel pilots, the mini-sized X-Wing--A Pocket Manual is both a fun way to kill a few minutes and an envy-inducing symbol of Star Wars street cred. The writing is tongue-in-cheek while still remaining meticulously faithful to the movies. The pop-up ships, assembled from real movie footage, are so convincing that you'll have the irresistible urge to "fly" them--complete with sound effects. Whether it ends up in a coat pocket or on a desktop, this manual will become a prized possession--especially if it's yours. --Paul Hughes

Yawn- if you're serious about star wars, most of this stuff you already know. You can find out everything that's really good to know in this book from reading X-Wing Rogue Squadron, and have some fun besides. Skip this dull bite-sized tome and get a science textbook. It would be more fun.
