Tees from another Galaxy... Star Wars Haul!

Tees from another Galaxy...

    So last Christmas was a huge time for the Star Wars Galaxy! Never would have dreamed I would see this much Star Wars merchandise in the stores in my life! I treated myself to a few things at full price I really wanted and then wait to see what I could snap up when the clearance sales hit!

    Here's my T-shirt haul! Found at Wal-mart marked down to $3 each!

The Millennium Falcon and the Death Star

 

Very Classic Star Wars graphic. Luke, Leia, and Han, company. The shirt is a long underwear type fabric. Long Sleeves.

Awe BB-8 is so cute! :-) The socks are not from Wal-mart but Michael's Craft Store where they had their Star Wars stock marked down half price. So this was a pack of 3 pairs of socks for about $3



The Force Awakens! I was thrilled to find this! Great graphics on this one including Rey! Get those female characters in there! Thank you Disney!

Light Up the Sky!

Remember the price of freedom in every galaxy!

Darksaber

Darksaber was written by the same author as the 3 book Jedi Academy trilogy. As I said about Children of the Jedi, I hoped it would change the direction of how Luke would be portrayed and it did.

It's hard to tell who is going to live and die in this one and I'll try not to give anything away but at least one Jedi dies. The biggest flaw is that the body did not disapear like Jedi always do and no explanation was given to say why it didn't happen so all I can guess is that it was a mistake in the book?
I just looked this book up on Wookieepidia and it claims some say this is the worst Star Wars novel! I have to disagree! The Courtship of Princess Leia is the worst one writen by far! I would say Darksaber is not that bad at all. Over all I enjoyed it. Another interesting bit of it was a look back in time at the building of the first Death Star.
There is a lot to keep up with this one being it jumps back and forth like scenes from a movie which I like the approach. It was nice when at the begaining of a chapter the location was given as to where the events were taking place.
It's to a point in the series now that if you want to start reading these you need to read them in order starting a few books back at least, because so many characters are no longer from the original movies and you're gonna get lost! :-)
Unfortunately I do not have a copy of the next book, Planet of Twilight! Untill I get my hands on a copy what should I read?! Thinking of going back in time and read the next book after Attack of the Clones which I do have... (and that is not Revenge of the Sith. One was written in between)

The Empire Strikes Back

Moving all my past reviews from Pinterest onto my Blog. In case your wondering, I am reading throught the Star Wars Saga and trying to do so in as close to order as I can though, I do have to jump to the Old Republic stories from time to time due to not being able to get my hands on the next book but other wise is pretty much in order as they should be read.
I have been a Star Wars fan since I was little and they showed the movies on TV and my mom recorded this one and ROTJ for me. As a teenager they started talks of making the prequels and I again I found my VHS of the movies and started watching them again! I've never been too out spoken about my love of the movies untill recently and I discovered there is a HUGE library of novels! I wondered where these books had been all my life! First one I ever bought was on clearance for $5 at Books-a-Million.
Now with that said, let's star here...
______________________________________________

I read The Empire Strikes Back in under 2 days. Yes, I would have started with Star Wars: A New Hope but I have yet gotten my hands on a copy! But being I pretty farmilar with the movie, it wasn't a huge big deal though I would like to read it! Anyway...

My Copy

This was well writen and easy to follow. The thing that bugged me most was it didn't have the classic...
Leia - "I love you!"
Han - "I know!"You have to realize that these type of movie novalizations are often written before the movie is released so should a line be throw in there that is not in the script it could quite easily be left out of the book.

On to; Return of The Jedi
