great value

Very in-depth resource about your favorite SW Creatures. It's got just about everything. Every species/race/creature you see in the movies is in here and A LOT from the Expanded Universe but not everything. There's a lot of fantastic information in here though. Even some good stuff about General Greivous' race the Kaleesh. Definitely worth the 17$

Star Wars

My husband is a BIG Star Wars fan! He received this book along with the updated Guide to Droids. He has all the Essential Guides & likes to keep up to date on the latest Aliens. I would recommend this book to add to your collection of Star Wars Books. Kind of like a "program" guide

Expanded Second Edition

Now how are you going to understand the joke unless you know these species. And how are you going to know these species without the guide book. This guide book is a description of the alien species found in the Star Wars. Generally each species gets two pages. On the left hand side wil be a drawing illustrating a representative of the species. On the tight is a description of the species, their home habitat, and other pertinent information about them. Overall, about a hundred species are so described, with another few dozen more given a third of a page or so of description. This is the second edition of the book: revised, expanded and with color images of the alien species as requested by the readers of the earlier edition. Of particular interest is the entry on 'Humans.' It remarks that we are really quite wide spread across the galazy. I guess that mean we've still got a chance.

New Essential Guide To Alien Species

Glad to see the newer version. They did leave out the Selkath and Rakata from Knights Of The Old Republic. Hopefully they will be added to the 3rd version (if there is one).
