May the force be with you!
If you're a Star Wars fan like me you're going to love this book. I love DK books because they are so vivid. They have pictures along with a detailed description of the character, ship, droid of equipment. It even shows you pictures of characters that you don't really see in the movies. If you're not familiar with the movies this books will definitely get you on the right track as well as offer a few surprises along the way.

Yard Sale COndition
The contents of the book is great. The problem is that I ordered it to give as a gift. What I recieved for my $27 was a book that looked like it came from a yard sale. The corners were banged up as if the book had been repeatedly dropped and the paper cover was scratched and torn. I definitely expected more for my money, particularly since it was not advertised as a remainder or anything else that would have told me the condition would not be first quality. This is not the first tine I've had this experience with Amazon.

Incredible Reference for Young Star Wars Fans
I bought this book last Christmas (2007) for my two young sons (6 and 4). They have spent the past year pouring over this book, debating facts about the characters, and writing their own stories to compliment the illustrations in the book. They haven't seen all of the Star Wars films (only A New Hope) but are thrilled by the detailed illustrations and descriptions of the characters, the far away galaxies, and of course the weapons and ships. This is their favorite Star Wars book. As an adult fan of Star Wars I find it is full of great information and back stories about the characters. My husband and I have found answers to many of our Star Wars questions here. This is a great reference and a really fun book.

FYI, another great Star Wars reference is [...]. Great fun!

Great in general, but perhaps not completely accurate
I really like this book too, it has a ton of detailed info and images on pretty much all the Star Wars creatures and characters. However I noticed that the image of the Boushh costume is not accurate, it is missing her big obi belt, which is a substantial part of her outfit. (Actually I think it's in there but it's under the jacket instead of over it, ...so weird.) I only find this an issue because I am making a Boushh costume and figured this book would be a good reference.

It's still full of info, and a good resource for people interested in learning more about characters in the Star Wars universe, just know that for whatever reason the images might not be completely accurate.

Star Wars: The Complete Visual Dictionary - The Ultimate Guide to Characters and Creatures from the Entire Star Wars Saga
I bought this book for my seven year old emerging Stars Wars fan. He LOVES this book and brings it with him everywhere. The book is great as it has all the characters from all the movies. The pictures are great as well as all the information about the characters.

Great book!
Basically, this book is all four visual guides put together, but with several new pages! With full-color pictures from the movies, this book tells not only about the characters, vehicles, and droids of the six Star Wars movies, but also adds in knowledge from the expanded universe. This is a great buy for fans of Star Wars!

Great book for a Star Wars fan
My son is an avid Star Wars fan and loves this book. He checked it out of the library so many times - we finally just bought it! Great pictures and detail.

A must for any Star Wars Fan!
I wasn't sure what exactly to expect from this book. When I got it and started looking at the page after page of amazing documented discriptions of anything and everything you would see in these movies I was so pleased with my purchase. The only thing I noticed was the emphisis on Episodes 1-3 and remaining episodes were all lumped together in a quick glance almost. The book is amazing non the less and I am more then pleased with it, and can't wait to give it to my significant other for his birthday.
