About the author
Patricia C. Wrede
67 books4,000 followersPatricia Collins Wrede was born in Chicago, Illinois and is the eldest of five children. She started writing in seventh grade. She attended Carleton College in Minnesota, where she majored in Biology and managed to avoid taking any English courses at all. She began work on her first novel, Shadow Magic, just after graduating from college in 1974. She finished it five years later and started her second book at once, having become permanently hooked on writing by this time.
Patricia received her M.B.A. from the University of Minnesota in 1977.
She worked for several years as a financial analyst and accountant, first with the Minnesota Hospital Association, then with B. Dalton Booksellers, and finally at the Dayton Hudson Corporation headquarters.
Patricia finished her first novel in late 1978. In January, 1980, Pamela Dean, Emma Bull, Will Shetterly, Steven Brust, Nate Bucklin, and Patricia Wrede -- all, at that point, hopeful but unpublished -- formed the writer's group that later became known as "The Scribblies." Several years later, they were joined by Kara Dalkey. In April of 1980, Patricia's first novel sold to Ace Books. It came out at last in 1982, which is the year she met Lillian Stewart Carl (who introduced her to Lois McMaster Bujold by mail).
In 1985, shortly before the publication of her fifth book, she left the world of the gainfully employed to try winging it on her own.
Her interests include sewing, embroidery, desultory attempts at gardening, chocolate, not mowing the lawn, High Tea, and, of course, reading.
She is a vegetarian, and currently lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota with her cat Karma. She has no children.

Le premier épisode est très introductif, il ne se passe pas grand chose et c'est très enfantin. Le deuxième épisode est truffé de courses poursuites trop longues et d'une amourette assez gnangnan. C'est le troisième épisode le plus intéressant, le plus complexe et le mieux construit. Enfin , il n'aura pas fallu grand-chose à Anakin pour basculer du côté obscur de la Force...
Dans l'ensemble ça se lit vite et bien. Ça remplit son rôle de divertissement.

These books show the life of Anakin Skywalker before he became Darth Vader. It also shows the fall of the Jedi and the Republic into the Galactic Empire.

I remember being only nebulously aware of Star Wars in my childhood. I saw trailers for the then-new prequel films on tv, my little brothers played with some of the toys, and when I was very little, I happened to catch the tail-end of A New Hope on cable tv (I had no idea what I was looking at; all I knew was that I loved the little blue trashcan robot).
Then in my tweens I spent a summer babysitting a pair of young boys, who had both the original trilogy and prequel trilogy on dvd, and one day they wanted to watch Return of the Jedi. That was the very first Star Wars film I had ever seen from beginning to end, and it blew my goddamn mind. Magic? Spaceships? Creatures? Pew-pew lasers? Wizards with glowing swords? All in one movie??? I had to know more.
When school rolled back around again and the Scholastic book catalog followed not long after, I ordered the complete box set of junior novels of all six Star Wars movies, which included this very book, written by middle grade author Patricia C. Wrede, writer of The Enchanted Forest Chronicles. I read the whole set, I watched the six movies, and I've been in love with Star Wars ever since.
Naturally, this was a heavily nostalgic re-read, so it's basically impossible for me to rate this book objectively. 5 stars for sheer enjoyment, docked half a star only because Matthew Stover's novelization of Revenge of the Sith is technically better.

I can't believe I got through this. I can't believe anyone got through Anakin's apprenticeship without offing him just to shut him up. I can't believe that article about the lack of women's healthcare bringing down the Republic was right and Padme died of sadness and that not one single person seemed to think it was weird that she wasn't getting regular prenatal care as an important citizen from Naboo.

Mia patro aĉetis ĉi-tiun libron por mi antaŭ ol miaj gepatroj eksedziĝis. Mi legis ĝin antaŭ preskaŭ 10 aŭ 15 jaroj, sed mi ne memoris ĝin. Reviziti na Star Wars (de antaŭ ol Disney detruis ĝin) estis bonege. Mi dirus, ke la verkado ne estas tre kaptema, sed la rakonto de Lucas estas tiel forta, kiel oni volos legadi. L'Unua Episodo estis tre malrapida, kaj mi trovis, ke ĝi estis malfacile fini ĝin. Ĉi-tio estas efekto de la malrapideco de la filmo, kaj ne la verkisto. Ĉiel, la Dua kaj Tria Episodoj estis pli bonaj.
Io, kio surprizis min estis, ke iuj scenoj estis ŝanĝitaj en la libro. Iuj estis plibonigitaj, aliaj estis malplibonigitaj. Foje, ŝajnis al mi, ke la verkisto ne komprenis la signifon de iuj versojn en la filmoj kaj, pro ĉi-tio, fiigis la scenojn. Alifoje, ŝi demontris tre bonan komprenon de la roluloj kaj aldonis ion al la scenoj por plibonigi kaj la scenon kaj la rolulojn.

My father bought this book for me before my parents got divorced. I read it 10 or 15 years ago, but I did not remember it. Revisiting Star Wars (from before Disney destroyed it) was great. I would say that the writing is not very captivating, but the story of Lucas is so strong, that one will want to keep reading. Episode I was very slow, but I found that it was hard to finish it. This is an effect of the slowness of the film and not the author. In every way, Episodes II and III were better.
Something that surprised me was that some scenes were changed in the book. Some were improved, and others were worsened. Sometimes, it seemed to me, that the author did not understand the significance of some lines in the film and, because of this, desecrated the scene. Other times, she demonstrated a very good understanding of the characters and added something to the scenes to improve both the scene and the characters.

Really good! I'd like to learn more about the Qui-Gon Jinn sorta beating death but I'm guessing I'll learn about that in the originals. At least I understand why Palpatine was able to come back in the movie sequels. Review to come

(Revenge of the Sith) Better than the films even though it has the same issues.
I enjoy Count Dookoo more in this.
Obi-Wan is my favorite character now with the prequils. Everyone else except Yoda and Bail Organa are irritating as all get out.

There is no beginning, there is no end
This story is timeless and endless. I have been reading book after book, but I can't find the first one. I hope I never find the last.

Very enjoyable read. As a Young reader version, it did simplify some things, but that didn't detract from the story.

Good abridged version
I am only familiar with Star Wars having watch a several from the franchise, mostly the sequel trilogy and the Force Awakens. Even if written for kids in mind, it can be read by anybody that isn't fully immersed in the story. It is well written. It does a stellar job of compacting the first three movies into a short and compact book version. After reading this, I feel confident in discussing casually the events of the three movies. I'm probably going to read the other book with the sequel trilogy.

Read this suspenseful story to find out what happens when Obi-Wan Kenobi sets out to find a myterious bounty hunter and what his rather foolish apprentice Anakin Skywalker does on his mission to protect Senator Padme Amidala from the strange bounty hunter and who he works for.
P.S.: This book contains books for episode #'s 1, 2 and 3. This reveiw is for #2.

The book is good because its the star wars episodes 1one to three but still great because it has stuff from the movies and its better written with more details so you understand it better so i prefer the book than watching the movie any time.the book still has the same plot of the movie 1-3 but who doesn't like star wars.
