Who really needs this book?, 2006-07-13
I initially bought this book because the insane amount of detail that went into the artwork and I thought I might be able to use the visuals for ideas in a Star Wars RPG campaign. While It might have been useful, our group scrapped playing SWRPG and went back to playing D&D. I don't know where the book is now, but I don't really care. I looked at it once. Now I realize that was all I needed.

With the gorgeous illustrations, these pages are better off being posters, because I can't imagine anyone seriously using these as reference material for anything else. They just look cool. It's worth about 10 minutes of looking at the intricate designs, and then you set it down and question why the heck anyone would care which way the wampa went.

It's basically a coffee table book if you want to show off how geeky you are.

Star WarsTrilogy-Ultimate Guide to the Incredible Locations od Episodes IV,V, and VI., 2005-07-30
I mistakenly thought that this book was also going to describe some of the actual outdoor movie set locations of where various exterior scenes were filmed, but it is actually a well-presented and detailed description of all of the various ficticious locations in Star Wars episodes IV,V,& VI from the fantasy point of view.
The exterior views and also the cut-a-way illustrations, maps of planets,and their detailed descriptions of Star Wars space technology are amazing in detail and descriptive content.
It is a pleasurable study of the Stars Wars Planets,Cities,and buildings and other space-related ships and other story-related structures for those who love the technical points of things like I do. Someone went to alot of trouble to produce this very definitive work, and I appreciate that kind of technical diligence as seen in this most enjoyable book.
