Solo: A Star Wars Story

The book does something that adaptations so rarely do – take a classic adventure (written by Lawrence Kasdan no less) and make it that bit better. Welcome to the galaxy Mur Lafferty * Fantha Tracks *This is a novelisation that needs to be experienced, better yet to be felt. * Phil Roberts in The Future of the Force *Slick and playful * Star Wars Aficionado *The book stands alone as its own work of art that simply can’t be compared (extensively) to the script from which it was derived * Dork Side of the Force *Definitely recommended for fans and people who want more depth in the story * Star Wars Awakens *‘Solo is easily one of my favorite Star Wars books of the year, and one of my favorite Star Wars movie novelizations period. Making a novelization exciting is always a tricky business because authors need to keep readers engaged with a story where they already know what’s coming. Solo pulls this off by adding just the right amount of extra detail to keep each scene fresh and interesting without veering too far from the original movie and turning this into a completely new story. I’d recommend picking up Solo: A Star Wars Story whether or not you enjoyed the movie earlier this year, because I think it will make you love it more either way.’ * Geek Mom *
