An Exceptional Look at the Shadowy Bounty Hunters

Although many people find this book to be lacking greatly, I thought that it was quite detailed. All of the important bounty hunters are closely examined, including, of course, everyone's favorite, Boba Fett. I started reading this book first--hey, I didn't know it was a series--so I do not know anything about the first two, but oh well. The plot was perplexing enough. The characters were pretty cool, actually, like the leader of the Rebel Scavenger squadron that is staking out KDY, and the giant space spider thing that Boba Fett crashes Slave I into. Some of the action is detailed, too, like when Slave I is being blasted to bits. You can accurately visualize the ship disintegrating. Plus, it has Star Destroyers in it that get stolen by the Rebels, which is cool scene. Even if you haven't read the first two books, you should read this one, because it is one of the best Star Wars books I have ever read.

One of the best

Out of the three Bounty Hunter Wars books I think this one is the best. It's good that it actually wrapped up the story instead of leaving it at a 'to be continued' like the other two. It's weird that Zuckuss was only in it for ten pages. Boba Fett was still the best.

Book was excellent Mee-sa give it 2 thumbs up!

Have read first 2 books. Mee-sa sure the third book the maxi-okiday. Mee-sa nev-a got to meet Boba Fett, but he my favorite bounty hunt-a. Of course Mee-sa great warrior of Nabu, so Mee-sa know what Mee-sa'm talk'in about.

OK 2 DAYS AND I FINISHED IT, DAMNED GOOD MERCHANDISE

The third installment of 'The Bounty Hunter Wars' has been the most catchy of them all (it took me two days to finish!). This book tells you of Neelah's true self and details the minds of the powerful scum of the universe. For Boba Fett fans you'll love him so much more, his bravery is stunning. Luckily Jeter has dropped the whole 'barve' thing from previous books. Jeter has an extreme talent in detail writing though some points in the book have no need but still set the scene amazingly well. Another great thing which was done was how the whole universe knew about the Empire's growing force over Endor. This book is extraordinarily great but the first 'The Mandalorian Armor' is still the best. I recommend that if you wish to read this powerfull book you read the previous two that way you'll understand things easier as the plot is dense. My only hope is that Jeter comes back with another Boba Fett story because he has proven himself as king of scum!

Lot's of action & in-depth look into the 'real' Boba Fett.

I just couldn't wait for this book to come out! And I wasn't disappointed. This book definitely keeps you reading with all of it's action and secrets continually being revealed. Boba Fett's fascinating character continues to emerge and surprise us and this book (the whole series really!) captures his personality perfectly. His actions and words I find to be very believable to his nature in all 3 books, and this final installment only further emphasizes this. I WANT MORE!
