Filling in the gaps

I really enjoyed this book. I have followed all of the Star Wars series books from Scholastic (Jedi Apprentice, Jedi Quest, Last of the Jedi, and Rebel Force)and I believe this book links into those stories as well as what happened before, and after the movies. For those who haven't read the Star Wars comics, Have you ever wondered what Luke was doing prior to the events in Star Wars: A New Hope? Have you ever wondered about his relationship with Owen Lars? Do you want to know how the rebels found Hoth? Do you want to see Luke uncover information about Anakin Skywalker? All of these events are depicted in this book. The only negative thing about this book is that the events prior to The Empire Strikes Back are briefly cover. I would have liked to have had this area explored in more depth. Other than that I really enjoyed this book. A New Hope: The Life of Luke Skywalker
Very enjoyable read!

Once again thought the in depth story of one character's perspective was such a nice change. Especially liked reading about Luke's time at Ben's home while on Tatoonie to save Han. Enjoyed reading with my 7 year old, but would read it myself again.
