      Synopsis

      For the true Star Wars fan, it doesn't get much better than this mammoth compendium in its evocative die-cut slipcase: a companion to the volume that covered the original trilogy and a visual tour through the final three Star Wars films. Photographs, behind-the-scenes production stills, early sketches, computer renderings, outtakes, and more from Lucasfilm's archives deconstruct Episodes I, II, and III every vehicle, character, planet, and plot line is examined. Featuring more than 3,000 out-of-this-world color images, an insider's-perspective text, and production specifications, this is a gorgeous tribute to the most successful movie saga of all time.

      December 09, 2008: This is one of the best book of the Star Wars prequels. It has all the characters, weapons and vehicles including foldouts. It even has a foldout comparing the Vindicator class Star Destroyer to a Victory class Star Destroyers. It also has all the Jedi, Clone Troopers and Droid army.
      Also recommended is the Star Wars Encyclopedia the new edition which has more of the Clone Wars and Order 66 era.

      December 29, 2005: When I saw they were coming out with this book, being written by Steve Sansweet, I was excited. I was wary of the price tag, but I thought this was going to be a coffee table book for the ages. Well I found it today and there was a copy open to peruse. For someone who has read all the DK Publishing books on the prequels, this was paramount to a slap in the face. This mammoth book is basically reprinting the 3 DK books they released for the prequels. As for the 'behind the scenes' photos, they're just 2 pages of pictures, 2 pages worth for every prequel. I am glad that I didn't sink my well-earned money into this book.
