    Synopsis

    The definitive reference guide to a space fantasy phenomenon.

    The Star Wars universe, much like our own, is constantly expanding. In the ten years since the publication of the Star Wars Encyclopedia, a lot has happened in that galaxy far, far away: four new feature films, a host of official original novels, comics, video games, and more. Now, thirty years of information on all things Star Wars -- ranging from science and technology to history and geography, culture and biography to ecology and cosmology -- has been supplemented with an entire decade's worth of all-new material. Abundantly illustrated with full-color artwork and photos, and now in a new three-volume edition to accommodate its wealth of detailed entries, the Star Wars Encyclopedia encompasses the full measure of George Lucas's creation.

    Here's just a sampling of what's inside:

    • character portraits of both the renowned (Luke Skywalker, Queen Amidala, Darth Vader) and the obscure (Tnun Bdu, Tycho Celchu, Bib Fortuna)
    • the natives and customs of planets as diverse as Tatooine and Hoth, Dagobah and Kashyyyk
    • the rituals, secrets, and traditions of Jedi Knights and Sith Lords
    • a timeline of major events in Star Wars history, from the Clone Wars and the inception of the Empire to the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker and the invasion of the monstrous Yuuzhan Vong
    Scrupulously researched and written by leading authorities Stephen J. Sansweet, Pablo Hidalgo, Bob Vitas, and Daniel Wallace, this landmark work is the must-have centerpiece of every Star Wars library.

    January 16, 2010: I bought this for my son and he loves it. This is one of those encyclopedias that will get your child reading more. It is laid out with the adult in mind however so I find it suitable for both of us and a fun challenge for my boy always stimulating questions and interesting enough for him to read more.This will expand his vocabulary ten fold.
