ATTACK
OF THE CLONES Star Wars Episode II By R A Salvatore Century (Random House) - April 2002 ISBN 0712684077 HB Science Fiction / Movie Tie-In Reviewed by: Rachel A Hyde, MyShelf.Com If you have been on tenterhooks every
since sitting glued to Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace,
then the long wait is over. The film has just been released but if even
waiting another few days until you can get to the Metroplex seems like
a lifetime, then pick up a copy of R A Salvatore's Attack of the Clones.
Set ten years after the first film, this book finds Anakin Skywalker as
a twenty year old man and soon to become a Jedi. But he still misses his
mother and yearns for another meeting with the beautiful Queen of Naboo,
Padme Amidala. The Republic is breaking up and rival factions are at each
other's throats, assassins slink along the dark streets of Coruscant and
the Dark Side is growing. When Anakin and his master Obi-Wan Kenobi are
sent on a diplomatic mission to protect a senator, Anakin is stunned to
find that this is none other than his lost love, Amidala, and he is determined
to save her from attempts on her life. Meanwhile back on Tattooine, Shmi
Skywalker is in danger. |
