This is fun for long time fans or newbies alike. There are lots of fun facts and trivia and everything is presented in a way that makes it accessible for younger readers. Recommended!

I love star wars and have seen every book but sometimes it is hard to keep up with! I will say if you have not seen all the movies it does spoil some things but then again it really helps to fully understand what is going on and who everyone is in all of the movies. Get guide for the fans just starting out!

Like other books of this calibre, it feels dated. However, it is a good book for kids to get their heads around the Star Wars Universe.
I loved the How to Become Emperor: The Palpatine Way. It made me laugh so so hard.

I absolutely loved this book. Even though I have seen all the star wars movies it was so helpful. It made me understand what was really going on in this complicated universe. It also includes the new movies, which is nice because you notice the connection between the old movies and the new ones. Maybe I didn't understand the movies the first time I saw them because I was about 5 years old, but now it all makes sense and that made me fall in love with this franchise all over again. I would watch it a hundred times. It has everything from love stories to political issues. And I got to explore it and understand it better with the help of this amazing book. I highly recommend it for a Star Wars lover as well as for a beginner in the process of becoming a Star Wars lover. The force is strong with this book.

I got the family to buy me this for my birthday this year, though I'm a long-time SW fan and should know all this stuff by now!
All the same, this is a great visual guide with great pictures and straight-forward explanations of characters, places, weapons, battles, plots, etc, that really added to my knowledge, and makes for a great basic reference book.
Loved it's simple and clear explanation of the plots to all the movies up to Rogue One, and some great explanations of some of the well-known (and not so well-known!) happenings and legends in the 'verse.
The only disappointment was that it wasn't up to date enough to cover Solo and the last two Skywalker Saga films. I hope they update it one day so I can get the full version!

This book is great for anyone interested in the Star Wars universe, both beginners and die-hard fans alike. It certainly helped me with little details I’d forgotten!
