Unlike the other Star Wars novelizations I’ve read, this book doesn’t give any new details that we haven’t already seen in the movie. The writing was great though; it really got me into the story and the characters were portrayed just right.
All with all it was a quick and enjoyable read and even though I didn’t like it as much as the other novelizations, I still highly recommend it to all SW fans.

This was an alright novelization as all novelizations of movies go,in fact this was better done than A New Hope novelization which didn't add much to the story and was also only ok.
So, why does this book get four stars? Because of the Dagobah scenes. They were very well written and a lot more was added to Luke's training than what is shown in the movie. As someone who can really appreciate training montages, this one resonated very well with me. Excepting that everything else was just ok, you can expect the kind of cheesy and corny writing that was lot common then in the 70's and 80's in this book.
