Think I'm right in saying that it was some time during 1984 that I read this book. A friend let me borrow his copy, that much I do recall, and I was eager to read it, being a lover of all things Star Wars when I was a boy.
"Return of the Jedi" was my favourite SW film and, remembering that this volume was faithful to the film, complete with pictures, I think it's fair to assume that at the time I would've rated this five stars.

While this is a story book, it's still a bit too complicated for younger kids to understand. My nephews still like looking at all the pictures, it's not a bed time story book I was hoping it would be. This is geared more towards an age group of 9-14 year olds.
