Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith

Absolutely excellent Star Wars. This is the peak of movie tie-in content, along with its predecessor and sequel by the legendary James Luceno. The amount of expansion of the story is really interesting and engaging. There are many tie-ins and references to other expanded universe material, such as Assaj Ventriss, Darth Bane, Labyrinth of Evil, the WEG sourcebooks, the Thrawn Trilogy and X-Wing Novels, Shatterpoint (which has a really cool tie-in in the Palpatine vs Windu fight near the end) and a cool Empire Strikes Back reference (with Captain Needa in charge of a Dreadnought Heavy Cruiser defending Coruscant). Brilliant book for anyone who is a fan of Star Wars, especially the expanded universe and the prequels.

Started reading this one after I saw the rerelease in theaters. This book makes changes or adds things to the story of Star Wars and Anakin and just makes it so much better and more believable. It really adds emphasis on why things happened and fills in gaps that I've always questioned. I love the writing style of the author with his lush descriptions, symbolisms, and at times funny moments. Recommend this to fans of the film and franchise. ~8.5/10

This book breaks my heart every single time. It's so beautiful and tragic and manages to add such depth to the movie and the characters.
