This, I think, was an anthology from different character POVs from Star Wars: Rebels. I enjoyed them but honestly, they were underwhelming. None of them felt original; it would have been better to get a different perspective.

This book is clearly intended for a young audience. It provides a small amount of backstory for the characters. That's it.

This book was basically an adaptation of the prequel shorts for Rebels. I still really get a lot out of these as they really give us a bit more on character insight on the events that happen. I will eventually read ever Rebels book in my journey to read all of the Star Wars canon. These books go by quickly and are really entertaining.

Just a Retelling of the animated shorts that serve as a prelude to Season 1 of Star Wars Rebels

Considering that this is a novelization of the shorts, this was well done! Kogge fleshed out the characters in a way the shorts couldn't!
Loved the interior illustrations as well, definitely helps readers imagination with character traits.
