A review by jorie
Star Wars: Pirate's Price by Lou Anders, Annie Wu

2.0

The Galaxy's Edge hype is real.

I came for Batuu, Black Spire Outpost, and Oga's Cantina. While the details about them were few, existing only in a framing device for the overall narrative, they were rich and exciting.

Otherwise, this book is not meant to be read as a Batuu guidebook. It works better as a setup for what Hondo's role will be in Galaxy's Edge, which is fine. The stories were all right. I liked the ending and the "Rise of the Porgs" part was adorable.

Whenever I was somewhat bored during my read, I would look up footage of his INCREDIBLE audio-animatronic and get inspired again.
