Another Boba fett adventure.Disney brings us a tale of Boba fett and his kills. Boba fett begins to meet famous people like general greivious and senator Palpatine. The ending is a little rushed and somewhat out of character?
In this final volume of the series we see Boba finally confront Mace Windu and a surprising encounter with Darth Sidious.
Never cared much I have to say I have never cared about Boba Fett. He seemed to be a rather unimportant character to me. (yes, I've seen every movie. Still don't care about this character) But this series fleshed out a character that to me, was little more then a background character, and I found myself in for the first time actually liking the guy. Although short, the books in this series are well written and enjoyable reads. I liked getting the background on Boba and finding out more about hi...
Star Wars Legends Project #159 Background: Pursuit was written by Elizabeth Hand and published in December 2004. The final 4 of the 6 Boba Fett books are her only Star Wars books, though she has written various non-Star Wars things.Pursuit picks up immediately where A New Threat (my review left off, 31 months after the Battle of Geonosis, 19 years before the Battle of Yavin. Most of the same characters return, along with Mace Windu and Chancellor Palpatine. The book takes place on Xagobah and
2.5 stars. This should not have been its own standalone story. A lot of the beginning is dependent on what happened in the previous book. There’s also some really convenient plot elements that I don’t think would realistically happen in a better written story. That being said, the ending did have some really fun scenes.
Overall: 4/10Pro: meeting Anakin, the face-off with Mace Windu, and the meeting with Palpatine are all cool additions that really help you to understand Boba’s future so much betterCon: The story was discombobulated however. (view spoiler)[ The build up for taking down Wat Tambor in the last book made no sense when Boba never found him… (hide spoiler)] It seems like a lot of unnecessary storytelling for the final product… Felt rushed… Felt like they didn’t get the money for another book.
Boba Fett is one of the most awesome Star Wars characters out there, but in this story he seemed kinda childish.There is a good space battle in it and a good fight scene too. Even though it is no longer canon, it’s still a good story.
Anakin and Ventress were great additions to this story in the series.
This is the last book of a series and this one picks up exactly where we left off in the last book. In this one, Boba has lost his fight to Grievous and he is about to be cremated. He needs to escape before he loses Wat Tambor.Unfortunately this series didn't end with a bang. The problem was the shift of the story. The last book was about Boba hunting Wat Tambor for Jabba and we were left with a cliffhanger. We basically drop that whole plot so Boba can meet various well known characters to hide...
First of all: I love Boba Fett. I tried to get my hamds on everything to do with the galaxies most notorious and best bounty hunter. The books are for a younger group but I really loved it. The writing is exciting and I got hooked so bad I read them all in 3 days.
*4.5 starsNothing really happened, but I liked the ending!
A relatively good, but very predictable conclusion to the Boba Fett series. One can already guess the result of the battle between the bounty hunter and Mace Windu even without reading the conclusion.Also, it is rather disappointing that the story with finding Wat Tambor did not continue. One could only guess what Boba Fett would have to explain to Jabba the Hutt.
Amazing book!If Boba Fett is your favorite Star Wars character, you’ll love this book! I was completely addicted to this series and wanted to read it all the time.
This review encompasses all six in the Legends series, some of which are available for free with Amazon Prime, but are numbered in incorrect or confusing order on Amazon: 1) The Fight to Survive2) Crossfire3) Maze of Deception4) Hunted5) New Threat6) Pursuit I read these as bedtime stories for my 12 year old. They chronologically span the end of Attack of the Clones and the earlier seasons of The Clone Wars animation series. It is the story of the development of Boba Fett from the only unaltered...
A solid end to the series, a few storylines just kinda got dropped, but over all a lotta fun.
It’s not terrible but a lot of inconsistencies with Star Wars lore. Boba’s head and arms should have been chopped off for example. And of course the outcome was already known. Mace survives to Revenge of the Sith.
A disappointing end to the series. Had such high hopes of a big finish... but no.(view spoiler)[ Boba was captured by Anakin Skywalker, and instead of prison he travels to Corrusant to tell Chancellor Palpatine the big secret about Dooku/Tyranus. Figures that while he is there, he will avenge his father and kill Mace Windu. They fight, Mace Windu wins easily, and he is only saved from death by Palpatine, who then pays him well to keep his secret. Now with enough money, he no longer has to work f...
Boba's Attempt to Avenge His FatherThis is the exciting conclusion to the young Boba Fett series. Boba is now a young man and has to escape from War Tambor's citadel of death.Note: possible spoilers.Along the way, Asajj Ventress shows up. Boba has a run in with Anakin Skywalker (a highlight of the book), and decides to try and kill Mace Windu. An action packed ending to a great series.
A decent story, but not the most exciting end for a series. Especially after the last book. Still it did retain my interest though I feel a bit cheated at Wat Tambor's escape. Even though I knew that they had to get away.
A little abrupt in its conclusion to the overall series, Pursuit nevertheless sees young Boba Fett facing off with his most powerful enemies yet as he fully assumes the role of on of the galaxy's most notorious bounty hunters. Hand works in plenty of connections to the larger universe and maintains tone necessary for a middle grade novel--while also charting Fett's growth from uncertain boy to a feared hunter willing to challenge the fiercest powers in the Republic.
