Critics Review

Fantastic collection of stories

Fantastic collection of stories * Jedi Council *One of the best Star Wars books released this year[…] With a range of styles and characters, there’s a lot here to talk about. The From A Certain Point of View series, tied around the 40th anniversary of each movie, continues to be a fun event and a way to see Star Wars takes from some of today’s top authors. If you liked the A New Hope installment, you’ll get a lot of bang for your buck from the second book. * Den of Geek UK *If you love Star Wars then this book is for you. I personally can’t wait for the Return of the Jedi edition… an excellent Christmas/Hannukah gift for any Star Wars fan out there. * Notting Hill Nerd *Absolutely recommend it … the work that has gone into this is outstanding … the selection of authors is wonderful, diverse, a lot of different voices to be heard * Star Wars Sessions Podcast *
