The amount of information collected in this volume in incredible, and by far the best thing about it. The illustrations are nice, but I'm really stymied as to why they chose to use comic book images to depict events that even non-"Star Wars" fans know happened in the movies. In addition, if you're an avid reader of "Star Wars" expanded universe novels and/or you haven't seen one or more of the movies yet, and you don't want them spoiled for you, DO NOT even open this book. It will give away so many plot and ending details of both the books and the movies that you really won't want to read or watch any of them. Those of you who don't like reading and/or have seen all the movies countless times will probably love this, since it has huge pictures on every page describing the events of the "SW" saga. For readers like me, though, this one is a dud.
