Great Read, Exciting from Cover to Cover

This book (and the rest of the series) is awesome. I read it when I was eleven and wouldn't recommend it for anyone younger than that due to violence and back-stabbing. I loved it because there was a new twist on every page. I am a Star Wars fanatic who has about 10,000 pages of Star Wars reading under my belt and I still could not predict all the exciting twists and turns. I'd say that this Bounty Hunter Wars series most likely makes my top two list, the other contender being the books by Zhan. Overall a wonderful read!

Any Star Wars fan will love it!

This book is for anyone who ever dreamt about hunting people throughout a high-tech galaxy, likes the bounty hunters, or just thinks that some of the weapons and other things are cool. If you have any love of Star Wars, you'll probably love it!

Boba Fett RULES!!

Being a fan of Star Wars, I picked this book up with great anticipation. This book was a real page-turner, in which I found myself completing this book in three days. Since Boba Fett is the COOLEST character in Star Wars, finding out what happened to him after Return of the Jedi, was pretty cool. A must have for Boba Fett fans!

all I can say is man what a book.

I thought this book was great because it was the first book about Boba Fett.It answered the question when he fell into the Pit Of Carkoon and came out alive. It was a nonstop 5 star 2 thumps up kinda book only BOBA FETT could character in. IN OTHER WORDS THIS BOOK TASTES GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of the best books in the saga!!!

I have always been intrigued and mezmerized by Boba Fett, and this book not only took my level of interest to an even higher level, but brought back much of the magic of the earlier anthologies (eg.-"Tales of the Bounty Hunters," "Tales from Jabba's Palace," etc) where back alley cut-throats, sub plots wound in sub plots, and highest level backstabbing are all par for the course in the Star Wars universe. This is just how the Star Wars universe SHOULD be depicted, dark and dangerous! I couldn't put this book down until I'd read it straight through!I loved the new characters D'harhan and Kud'ar Mub'at, I would be very anxious to get to know them much better somewhere down the line---get ready for some new spin offs, these characters lend themselves very well to new plot lines and new intrigues!One problem I noted in this story, though, is where Zuckuss falls into it. It seems there is a slight detraction from the time line here. If the setting is in the events of Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, 4-LOM should play a much more significant role in Zuckuss' life than Bossk, especially where partners are concerned!Overall, I was very refreshed with the darkness and sub-plotting, where every nod or turn of the head has meaning--it fits right in with my original and unwavering impression of the Star Wars Universe! If the other 2 books in this series are anything like this one, the Bounty Hunter Wars series just *might* run parallel with Zahn's "Thrawn" Trilogy!
