The Phantom Menace by Terry Brooks
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
**4.5-stars**
This is a fantastic novelization of one of my go-to flicks, The Phantom Menace. Terry Brooks did a phenomenal job bringing the action and political intrigue to the page!
Admittedly, I am slightly obsessed with the movie The Phantom Menace. Poke fun at me if you must.
I’ve watched the movie a zillion times, so I figured I should probably check out the novelization.
It was only then that I discovered it was adapted into book form by the renowned Fantasy author, Terry Brooks!?
If you’ve seen the movie, there will be no great surprises here, but as with most book/movie combos, you can find a lot more additional information in the book.
I feel like the book allows more space to build out some of my favorite characters in the entire universe, like Anakin and Qui-Gon.
I think if you are a fan of Star Wars, this is definitely worth a read; consider it supplemental to the movie.
I am definitely going to pick up the other novelizations in this prequel trilogy. Attack of the Clones was written by R.A. Salvatore, so I am actually really looking forward to starting that one soon!
“Admittedly, I am slightly obsessed with the movie The Phantom Menace. Poke fun at me if you must.”
Never!! I love the prequels, and I love the TPM a lot. It’s nice to hear someone say the love this movie as well! I just recently got this for my kindle so I am working my way towards reading it. I’ve read part of the Attack of the Clones book and have enjoyed it so far. I feel like it adds another level to the movie.
I hope you enjoy it too! It definitely adds another level to the information in the movie, so I think you will because of that. I am planning to read Attack of the Clones next month!
