[Jessi · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the first time I remember seeing a book like this have Ben Solo as his own little entity (instead of a mention on a page of Kylo Ren) and that was nice. This is a fun, quick reference guide to so many characters, including many from newer series.

[Tim · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a solid update with more pages and a lot of new entries, although many (most of them creatures and droid series) have been deleted as well.

[Paul · Rating 3 out of 5]

Pretty good although seems quite obviously aimed at the younger audience and from what I can tell it is all canon characters from movies. Still, worth a flick through.
