Star Wars books are always fun, especially now that so much is being put into them to make sure that they fit into the new canon. No matter the age group they are aimed at, every time I pick one up, I turn into that young boy who was first enchanted in 1977 by the…

Star Wars: Complete Locations (2016) – Hans Jenssen, Richard Chasemore, and Kemp Remillard
