Endangered by Delilah S. DawsonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
An okay edition of Star Wars Adventures, actually the 2 main stories were quite good, but the Tales from Wild Space, just seem to be stories for the sake of the it. I understand putting in stories with a moral in it, heck I grew up on such stories, but the story being told does not actually add up to the actual situation that prompted the story to be told. To quote "Okay, so it wasn't a perfect analogy". So why?
The first story "Rose Knows" was okay, it had the meeting between Rose and a certain X-wing pilot. Also Rose proving her worth, and getting noticed despite not craving the limelight.
Endangered. This is the main story of the book it stars the Rebels on a mission to save some endangered animals. Following one of Ezra's plans and sources. Seriously when are those ever a good combination? Though it does make a good adventure.
The next 3 wild space stories feature (young) Anakin, doing the right thing. Then Nien Nunb and Shriv in a mission where they should have looked before they leaped, and a Jawa learning the importance about family. Apart from Anakin's story I really did not see the point of these.
Over all I would have given this 3.5 stars but because of the wild space stories not adding up I rounded down instead of up. This is a nice cover gallery section at the end of the book, but nothing really special in this volume.
