Has anyone taken the time to read these really cool children's books? Wow, sometimes I wonder if they aren't my favorite SW books. :bigsmile: Supposing you've read some of them, which ones have you read? Has anyone read all of them?
I've read a few here and there and am now gong back to read them one by one, in order. I'm only on the sixth on from the Jedi Apprentice Series because my library can't get them real fast and I can't afford to buy them...

Which books exactly do you have in mined?
The only Star Wars Books I read where: 6 Boba Fett books; and now I am reading Darth Maul Shadow Hunter.

I own the special edition one in which it spans Yoda-Dooku, Dooku-Qui-gon, Qui-gon- Obi-wan and Obi-wan and Anakin.

I suppose I didn't really have any particular books in mind...
Are the Boba Fett books good? I've seen them before, but haven't read any because I wasn't all that sure about them.
Wow, I haven't heard of that special edition. A couple friends told me about the special edition with Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, and Anakin.

I tried getting into these various Watson books, but the writing was unmistakably directed at a much younger audience. Giving the books I've read and the amount of time spent trying to disect so many of them, the "younger teens and kids" stuff just drove me nuts.
I often found myself saying things aloud like:
That's not how they would really do that.
I can't believe this entire chapter. It stinks.
Who's writing this stuff? A grade schooler?
I stepped away from the headache and just moved on to The Approaching Storm.
Then I ran away from that headache, too.
:doh:

I've read most of them, and tended to enjoy them. They're definitely more like something I'd would've read in 5th grade or something, but are definitely enjoyable for a nice, quick, relaxing reading session. Beyond that, the plotlines are actually very well developed, and progress quite nicely along with the novels; and that alone makes them much more enjoyable than a certain nine-book series I recently completed....
