Review #61 - Star Wars: The Last Jedi by Jason Fry



Details:

Title: Star Wars: The Last Jedi
Author: Jason Fry
Publisher: Century
ISBN 13: 978-1780898414

Synopsis:

From the ashes of the Empire has arisen another threat to the galaxy’s freedom: the ruthless First Order. Fortunately, new heroes have emerged to take up arms―and perhaps lay down their lives―for the cause. Rey, the orphan strong in the Force; Finn, the ex-stormtrooper who stands against his former masters; and Poe Dameron, the fearless X-wing pilot, have been drawn together to fight side-by-side with General Leia Organa and the Resistance. But the First Order’s Supreme Leader Snoke and his merciless enforcer Kylo Ren are adversaries with superior numbers and devastating fire power at their command. Against this enemy, the champions of light may finally be facing their extinction. Their only hope rests with a lost legend: Jedi Master Luke Skywalker.

Review:

While this book is a good novelisation I have to admit I do prefer the original stories. There were some added moments beyond the film and I especially appreciated Leia's thought processes although the start with Luke felt odd and somewhat out of place. The writing style was easy to read and it did follow the film very well. Overall a solid read but not amazing. 

I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars.
