Review: Great seller! - Great!
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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Star Wars ESB..Collecting knowledge through reading...
*by J***A on April 21, 2006*

Since most reviews are about the item itself I would first like to say that collecting SW merchandise for close to 30 yeras is my top priority. Those of you who also collect will find that for a short but good story book adventure for part V "The Empire Strikes Back", still brings the magic from Sir George Lucas to the small literature side of Sci-Fi adventure for all ages. I am not only saying this because I love the Star Wars Saga, but to be able to see that when kids re-inact the story means that they have read it, processed it and found it fun enough to act it. Those of you growing up in the 70's know what I mean. Now this new generation will never forget the experiance of being able to read a great sci-fi movie and sit back and say !!!WOW!!! this is great and can't wait for the next book to read!! "May The Force Be With Us All"
