Customer Reviews

The Final (and darkest) book in the series. Review by a 14 year old Star Wars fan.

I was astounded by the cover's CGI redition of Asaji Ventress. I just picked it up and bought it. Some of the major points in the book: -Anakin( a couple months away from becoming Vader) and Boba encounter each other and become friends( which actually shows why Darth didn't strangle Boba when he objected to his orders in ESB- because they are friends.). - Boba goes to the Jedi Temple and encounters Mace Windu (killed Jango Fett) by just a glimpse. - Boba gets his weapons back and breaks into the emporer's throne room and fights Mace, with Mace about to win when Palpatine interrupts, and Boba tells the soon- to- be emporer about dooku. (I still think Boba should have killed Mace in ROTS instead of Anakin.)

Review by Arman - 6 years old

Once upon a time there was a boy named Boba Fett. His father's name was Jengo Fett. One day Anakin came and fought both of them. Then Anakin put his light saber back on his belt. Anakin saw two Jedi knights named Mace Windu and Kit Misto. They fought a bad guy named Darth Maul. Then they put their light sabers back into their belt. My thoughts: The book was good because it was full of action. I like their names. The story was sad and good.

i agree with the two previous reviews

this book was AWESOME! i really enjoyed it!first of all, it begins where BOBA FETT 5: A NEW THREAT left off. after rescuing himself from being burned alive, Boba is attacked by Asajj Ventress... to be saved by Anakin Skywalker. Anakin brings Boba to Coruscant, where Mace Windu lives...

Definately agree with previous review.

Although adult readers will completely blow through this series in a few hours, it is well worth reading. Definately took me back to my "dumb kid" days seeing Boba make all of the mistakes he did as a youth. Driven off hatred and vengence...this definately sets a good back story for the best Bounty Hunter in the galaxy. Must read for all ages!

Conclusion to a Great Series!

The Boba Fett series comes to a thrilling conclusion with Boba, now a warrior and bounty hunter in his own right, seeking revenge on Mace Windu, the jedi who murdered his father at the start of the Clone Wars. There is a twist ending I won't give away, but I will say Chancellor Palpatine makes a sudden appearance and there IS an actual confrontation between jedi and bounty hunter. Readers might experience sympathy with the Boba character as he is basically a boy who grows up to be a cold warrior because of what happened to his father. Having said that, while this series was primarily for younger readers, adults will get something out of it as well. I know I did.
