Amazon.com Review

A thousand years from now, someone might find a dusty collection of DK's Star Wars titles buried in a library vault and wonder at the ancient strife, fashions, and droids of this unusual, unmarked era in history. For one who didn't know this was a series of film characters and situations being analyzed and explained, it would be an extremely believable history resource. For those who do know, it's a fantastic reference guide for all things Star Wars. David West Reynolds's impressive scientific writing style renders this "visual dictionary" a veritable bible of intergalactic information related to Attack of the Clones, the second prequel to the original Star Wars trilogy. The most intricate details of the characters, creatures, and equipment of the film are revealed in crisp, annotated photographs and authoritative text. We see, close-up, the meltproof Ceramoid mesh of a scouter's pack; the traditional Ansata pattern on Jedi Jocasta Nu's tunic, symbolizing knowledge and learning; and the alarming features of Poggle the Lesser, ruler of the Stalgasin hive colony of Geonosians. Star Wars fans and future anthropologists alike will be wowed. (Ages 9 and older) --Emilie Coulter


Product Description

Star Wars: Episode II -- The Saga Continues...

Marks the return of fan-favorite Dr. David West Reynolds as author, whose background as a professor of archaeology and deep knowledge of Star Wars informs the "pseudo-scientific" writing style that has become the hallmark of DK's Star Wars titles. Highlights the new array of characters, including: Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padme Amidala, Mace Windu, Count Dooku, also the young Boba Fett, plus new bounty hunters, battle droids, clone troopers and some major new species.

5.0 out of 5 stars DOUBLE PAGE SPREADS = DOUBLE ENJOYMENT, June 26, 2002
What a cool book for all Star Wars fans! The photos are dazzling, rich in details, full of the characters and gadgetry envisioned by George Lucas. Each photo is annotated and the pages are crammed with facts - surely enough to satisfy even the most avid aficionado!

The author and members of the DK staff spent some time at Skywalker Ranch, Lucasfilm's California headquarters as they met with the film's creators, propmakers, and stunt coordinators. Such research is obvious in this superb resource.

The double-page spreads are great for browsing, amd the inside information is fascinating.

5.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive guide to Attack of the Clones, August 18, 2002
Like the Visual Dictionary for The Phantom Menace, this comprehensive collection of all the main characters, vechicles, droids and creatures is another fascinating book for Star Wars fans. Starting out with a summary of the plot for Ep.2, this book includes character profiles of Padme Amidala, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Count Dooku, Jango Fett, Mace Windu, Yoda, Zam Wesell and many others. One of my favourite Star Wars companion books

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Star Wars book!, June 20, 2002
The Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones Visual Dictionary is a fascinating diversion for all the fans waiting to see the film again. loaded with stats on Anakin Skywalker, Obi Wan Kenobi, Count Dooku, Yoda and tons more characters, endlessly informative trivia and an assortment of great photos from the film. With so much detailed info it's almost overwhelming. Regardless, Star Wars fans (myself included) love this stuff, and it's a must-have for anyone who loves the films set a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...
