Hypnotic Journey into Star Wars

2007-04-19
Star Wars fans will easily get lost in the fantasy worlds so brilliantly evoked in this book. Thousands of hours have been expended by hugely talented artists and writers to bring to life the small and large details of the Star Wars galaxy.

I'm grateful that someone in the Lucas creative hierarchy gave these artists the go-ahead to add new story exposition and perspective that was never in the movies. Fascinating new detail - did you know that Ben Kenobi had a secret basement in his house on Tatooine? Its shown here, along with what he hides in it. Did you know the Cantina in Mos Eisley was owned by a Wookie who bugs his customer's conversations? Did you know the carbonite freezing chamber in the Cloud City on Bespin was inside the gas processing vane? These and a thousand other details provide the essential Star Wars backstory and immersion craved by true fans.

This a a book to be read and examined slowly, preferably at night before sleeping, because your dreams will be of Star Wars.

awesome buy for Star Wars Fanatics

I bought this item for Christmas for my Star Wars fanatic husband. It turned out to be the hit for him and my 2 fanatic boys ages 5 and 8. They haven't stopped looking it over and discovering new trivia.

Star Wars Complete Locations

This is an excellent resource book for the Star Wars fan! If you've purchased any of the Incredible Cross-Sections book in the DK series then this book is the perfect companion. While the other books detail the various vehicles from the movie, this book offers incredible detail of every location in all 6 episodes of the saga. As an admirer of the original trilogy I particularly like the sections on the Death Star and the Hoth Rebel Base. Even if Star Wars is not your thing, this book is filled with facinating artwork and details for anyone to enjoy.

Disappointed in Quality of Binding

2006-08-31
As a parent of 3 boys who love Star Wars, we are constantly purchasing books. We have always purchased them at Borders (or stores of the like). This was the first time I purchased a book on-line thru Amazon. Within ONE MONTH the binding came unglued. This has never occured with any of the other Star Wars books we've purchased. My boys are very protective of their books and take care of them. We now have a book with the hard-cover off and I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED and due to this do not plan on purchasing online thru Amazon if this is the quality I am to expect in the future.

Love it!

My wife and I were always interested in the worlds/locations that were visited briefly in the movies, and now we have the abiltiy to read about them in more detail and to see them in more detail! Love the book!

Pretty Cool

A good book (the size of a small table) for anyone who likes the Star Wars movies, or for any Star Wars megafan you know. Contains diagrams and detailed cultural overviews of many of the races and species, explores the mythos and lore of the settings of all films, and is brimming with cut-away maps of every major location from the The Phantom Menace to A New Hope. This is a great resource for anyone who wants to learn all about the greatest sextet in movie history.

Great book

2007-11-01
I really like this book. The illustrations are incredibly detailed. I would give it 5 stars if I didn't already own the Star Wars: Complete Locations Episode I, II and Original Trilogy. These are all included in this book. However, it was the only way to get the Episode III locations.

Where you've always wanted to go

2007-09-03
This book is great!! I love how it approaches Star Wars as if it where real in the telling of each local or spot. It makes you feel even more apart of what's going on in the Saga and only improves the feeling of the movies for me anyways. If you've always had questions about each place you've seen on screen then this is the book for you!!

A great source for background information

2007-08-30
The complete locations is a great source that brings all the locations together. One does not have to buy book after book of each movie to see their perspective location. As always, the schematics are detailed and will aid anyone who like to build diorhamas. I do recommend this book.

Great visual drawings!

See beyond the locations of the places where all the events take place. You can explore the little sections of what rooms are in the Jedi Temple, the routes from the pod race and more.
