Loading... Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogyby Terry Brooks, R.A. Salvatore (Author), Matthew Stover (Author)
   None No current Talk conversations about this book.   aeryn0 | Jul 23, 2023 |  I can't remember the prequel films in that much detail, but I didn't notice any particular alterations from the basic plot, although there are many instances where the authors have been able to expand the characters motivations. None of the action scenes carry quite the same degree of impact as they do on screen, but the added characterisations more than make up for it. A particular bonus was that JarJar was far less annoying than in the films. Probably only worth reading if you're huge SW fan, or else if your particularly dislike films but prefer vast books. Worth noting that the last 140 pages ie 5% of the book, contains trailers for other (non-canon) books written in and around the SW universe.
