hinotoriii 's review for:
Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
by Matthew Woodring Stover
This book really was a little gem to find and read.
I remember buying this just before the movie came back in 2005, and was surprisingly shocked by how rich and well written it was. For a movie based on a film. This book is by far better than the movie it is based upon, which you would think is strange considering the movie is more the 'source material' in this instance. But reading this was a joy. You really get to see the pressures that all the characters were under during the war and the events around it. It's detailed, and as others have said, yes it's a tragedy of sorts. From the strain of a relationship to the downfall of a man, to the death of many characters, this book has everything that the movie just doesn't get to show you.
One of my absolute favourite things about this book is that you get to see things happen that didn't happen in the movie, but when you read the book you think that it would logically fit in, and it would happen. Some moments I think were a shame not to include in the film, but that's why we have the book : so we can read back to it and find out more. Such a good read, I would recommend to any Star Wars fan, or just any person in general who wasn't completely satisfied with what the film had to offer.
