Darth Vader and Son:
Vader is your average evil cyborg dark overload with telekinesis. But, he is different than most because he must also raise his toddler son Luke, all while taking over the galaxy. The short, illustrated book is actually non-canon, but pokes fun at many aspects of the Star Wars universe outside of the original trilogy, including making fun of Jar Jar Binks and several other things fan love to hate. The book is actually quite funny and well-written, but relies on you having seen the films and being at least pretty knowledgeable of them. Other than that, it's a pretty easy read, and it's worth the price, even if it's a bit too brief. Most people know a good deal about Star Wars already, so it's not like the book only appeals to fans and shuts others completely out, like some other franchises. The book is a fun read, and has enough humor and wit to satisfy pretty much anyone who reads it. Darth Vader and Son is an entertaining short book that will please fans and the casual reader. 3.5/5 stars.
