5-0 out of 5 stars ANAKIN'S FATE REVIEW
It was AMAZING!!!!ESPECIALLY when Anakin dreamed about wining the podrace. Watto is EXTREMELY mean and selfish!!!!!!!!
5-0 out of 5 stars a prequel to the Phantom Menace
"Anakin's Fate" is a story about what happens to the slave boy before he meets Padme and the Jedi. The official prequel novels all have about a third of additional story that never made it onto the silver screen. Terry Brooks' "Phantom Menace" is no exception as there is a great deal of time and energy spent on Tatooine with 'Annie' long before his destiny intersects with Qui-Gon Jinn. "Anakin's Fate" is closely based on some of these events that happen long before the Noobian blockade. In this part of Anakin's life, we experience the podrace that he and Watto allude to in Episode I: "he smashed up my pod in the last race."The reader also spends time with Kitster, the Jawas and space pilots. Marc Cerasini beautifully flushes out Anakin's character. The Jedi Readers can be a mixed bag in terms of quality and this one is surprisingly well written.Until readers advance enough to handle the Terry Brooks novel, "Anakin's Fate" is a great title to read prior to watching "the Phantom Menace."

5-0 out of 5 stars These Step into Reading books about Star Wars are great
My 4 year old loves to have these books read to him.Before I introduced these books to him he was at a much simpler level of book, but his interest - because of the droids (robots)has helped him grow into these. My 7 year old devours them by reading them to himself and to his brother. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Jar Jar is so funny.
Jar Jar is so funny because he slurps up a frog and he splashes it into Sebulba's soup. That made my great-grandmother crack up! She read the whole book with me and she said funny things about the book.I think she was so excited that I could read it by myself, and thought that the book was extremely funny.

3-0 out of 5 stars An average book about a clumsy gungan.
First let me state that I am well over the desired reading age for such books as this, and was only reading it to try to get some insights on the fascinating gungan that is Jar Jar Binks. This book was quite short, andonly had about 10 words per page, so if you are a parent looking to buythis for your children you might ought to think about passing this book upfor one with more than 100 words in it. The only really good thing aboutthis book was that it had some pretty good artwork, but the good parts werebasically limited to that. I read the book to my five year old nephew (andhe loves Star Wars) and he didn't like the book at all. Also, many of thethings that occur in this book were taken from the movie, so you don'treally get any new material. To be honest, I don't know why anyone wouldeven publish this book. They ought to just leave out the story and putpictures in it.

4-0 out of 5 stars I liked the book a lot.
Even though I am almost 11, I loved this because I thought Jar-Jar was funny, and very clumsy. I want to say hi to my mommy, because she might read this. ***Meghan*** ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars This book preaches ruthless murder and terrorism!
The hero of the story is Jango, who calls himself a bounty hunter before the admiring eyes of his son, Boba.In reality, however, Jango is no more than a ruthless hired assassin whose only motivation is money.Moreover, by subcontracting an explosives expert to assassinate a Senator, Jango becomes the intellectual author of a terrorist attack. And then he murders his attractive young assistant in cold blood when she is captured and begins to talk! No, I'm sorry, this book has no place on our children's bookshelves. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Just right for us
My son is in kindergarten and is an advanced reader for his class. Still, this book would have been too advanced for him except that he knows the movie so well and he is so interested in Anakin Skywalker that he can understand the book on his own pretty well. It's just at his level and this book has got him so excited about reading on his own that he is practically unstoppable now. It's not great literature but to him it is greatly enjoyable. ...
