Review: Ultimate Star Wars - Ultimate Star Wars is a great book that will appeal of fans of all ages and interest levels. One of the authors, Ryder Windham, has worked on many great Star Wars books previously and does a great job compiling detailed information about the movies and their components. In his introduction, he begins with an interesting point: think of Ewoks, or Lobot, or the Slave I. These are never mentioned by name in the films, yet most casual fans are aware of them and know their names. That means they somehow absorbed that information from another source - perhaps the internet, a video game, a novel, an animated series, or maybe even an encyclopedia like this. The book is organized by topics - the first half of the book is Characters and Creatures, and then the second half of the book covers things like Locations, Technology, and Vehicles. Appearing at various points throughout the encyclopedia are "Key Events" (the Duel on Mustafar, Training on Dagobah, etc.) The book is full of detail... each major character gets a biography, important events which they were involved, and sometimes other tidbits of info such as their wardrobe, their weapons, etc. Important characters like Princess Leia and Obi-Wan Kenobi get a full 2-page spread, while smaller characters like Poggle the Lesser or Jek Porkins only get a fraction of a page. But its the inclusion of these small characters and creatures (who may only be on screen for a few seconds) that make the encyclopedia useful and comprehensive. Each section also includes a "timeline" and a "behind the scenes". So for example, the section on vehicles will have a Vehicle Timeline that covers the major events in the saga involving ships and transports - the Boonta Eve podrace, the Battle of Yavin (which destroyed the Death Star), etc. Then there will be a behind the scenes page that shows an AT-AT miniature, an early TIE fighter and X-Wing concept sketch, etc. For those wondering what canon is used for the encyclopedia, it seems to be the six Star Wars films as well as the Clone Wars and Rebels TV series. In looking through the book, I could not find any included subjects that were strictly EU and did not appear in the films/animated series. I should also mention that the book includes a nice foreword by Anthony Daniels, who briefly discusses the complexity of the saga and admits that despite his involvement in the saga over 30 years even he doesn't know all the facts. Overall, this is a highly-recommended product. The casual Star Wars fan will likely learn a lot; and even the most die-hard fans should learn something obscure that they did not know before.

Review: Informative guide to the new canon in Star Wars - Ultimate Star Wars is an encyclopedia packed full of Star Wars information from all of the known canon material so far. This includes all six films and The Clone Wars and Rebels television shows. None of the Legends material is covered since the goal of this book is to get the reader up to speed on all the relevent, canonical material before the onslaught of new stories is about to hit. The book is divided into sections covering, Characters and Creatures, Planets/Locations, Technology, and Vehicles all presented in chronological order. Interwoven throughout the sections are also iconic events such as the Duel on Mustafar, Training on Dagobah, etc. Since the book casts its net so wide, it is able to cover pretty much everything in the saga, although the level of information provided may not be as detailed as in past ultimate guides. They do however bring everything together into one volume so the trade-off is worth more often than not. The pictures are nice and crisp, providing great detail for some of the most obscure characters, but I sometimes wondered why some of the key characters had the pictures chosen that they had. In the end though, there are enough pictures of the important characters in the key events that it makes little difference. My favorite parts of the book actually had to do with the technology section because there are lots of detailed, close-up images of blasters lightsabers and droids that provide great detail to the design and construction. The vehicles section is similar in the level of detail with the pictures. This book is a very nice companion guide for any fan of the Star Wars saga. There are enough pieces of new information that even the most die-hard fan will find something new to discover. It is also a great reference book for those wanting to know definitively what is part of the new Star Wars canon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Encyclopedia for the New "Canon"
*by X***M on June 28, 2015*

Before every one freaks out and starts going on about getting rid of the Expanded Universe from Star Wars, I have to say I am a huge fan of the Expanded Universe and that does not detract from the review of this book. Its a great book, full of screen shots from the films and little tidbits of information, some concept art and pretty much every major and minor character in movies 1-6, The Clone Wars and Star Wars Rebels as well as ships and technologies. It however does not contain anything from the Expanded Universe, so if you are looking for the Yuuzong Vong they are not here. With that being said it is a great book but with limited information from each character as well the actual canon non comic books/books that gave more character develop is null and void now so some of it is listed as "hearsay" and what not. It is a great coffee table book for any Star Wars fan and is a fun read. Quite large as well, I was surprised with the size of the book and the quality. I strongly recommend it
