Review: Great - Great read
Review: Good - This is the original novelization of The Empire Strikes Back, which was originally published around the time the movie was released. It was re-released including a new hardcover version (which is this version) in the late 1990s when George Lucas was working on the special editions of the original trilogy and the prequel trilogy. This has an introduction by Lucas that talks about the movie and some of the issues surrounding getting it made after the success of Star Wars. This is a pretty straightforward novelization of the movie. It does not change the overall story at all, it just has some dialogue changes here and there. So, if you are a fan of the movie, this is worth reading. It is very short, much shorter than the novelizations of the prequel and sequel trilogy movies, and can easily be finished in a day or two.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everybody use a blue laser sword!
*by S***L on January 5, 2006*

This is a great book for anyone who is a Star Wars fanatic. While there are some differences in character descriptions in this book it is mostly unimportant. You get a much better feeling of what emotions the characters are going through during different scenes. You also get a much better idea of the lessons Yoda puts Luke through, as well as a better feel of time passing during the relationship. The movie always made it seem that a couple days go by, but the book somewhat shows more time passing. I was a little dissapointed with the ending of the book. It may just be me but it felt less intense than the rest of the writing. However, Darth Vader's emotional attack on Luke is explained beautifully. Anyone who wishes to feel a more detailed example of how much emotion and manipulation is involved towards Luke from both Yoda and Vader should definitely pick up this book
