A review by catherine_t
Star Wars: Women of the Galaxy (Star Wars Character Encyclopedia, Art of Star Wars, Scifi Gifts for Women) by Amy Ratcliffe

5.0

Women are integral to the stories of the Star Wars universe, from Princess Leia to Rey to Ahsoka Tano. Amy Ratcliffe's gorgeously illustrated compendium of female characters draws on every part of the Star Wars universe: the films, the animated television series, the official novels, and Marvel comics.

Within its pages I found characters familiar and not; some from the novels made me want to go out and find the books and read them, too.

The illustrations really make the book, though. Done by a number of female illustrators, they are gorgeous and evoke the spirits of the characters portrayed.

Every Star Wars fan should own a copy of this.
