The first thing I noticed when opening this book is how beautiful the artwork was. Compared to all other Star Wars World of Reading books I’ve read, this one has the most beautiful artwork. The colors especially are gorgeous, definitely the darker and moodier tones set the mood and feeling of darkness and downtrodden emotions. I love the uses of the purples, blacks and deep blue shades. I also loved the deep green of Boba Fett’s armor, how Luke’s X-Wing fighter looked, the sunset on the first page with the Falcon; and the depiction of Leia’s character, as well as the duel between Vader and Luke (and Luke’s Bespin outfit). The story itself was a good summary of the events it was attempting to describe that occur in Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back. I thought every word was completely accurate to the movie’s events and the Star Wars universe overall. Although being shortened, that was an appropriate move for a book intended for kid’s, and I thought even though the events were shortened they were described fully enough so that you understood the complete gist of the situation overall. I loved this short story and the images presented, even though one image Luke’s eyes looked off-centered. Therefore there is a likely chance I’d pick it up again to view the images again in more thorough detail to ingrain them in my mind’s eye. Props to the illustrators of this story and once again, this World of Reading story was written by Nate Millici, who is the author of the first ever World of Reading story I read and I immensely enjoyed, which would explain why I like this story more than the ones I didn’t written by other World of Reading authors. This has now become my favorite World of Reading Star Wars book.
