Star Wars: Cloak of Deception

Written by Tim Boles from Bridgeport, WV on February 16th, 2007

  • Book Rating: 2/5

When I think of Star Wars I think of a lot of action and adventure. This book sorely disappointed me. I found myself in a hurry to get to the next disk, not because I found it so interesting but wondering where the action takes place. The beginning and the ending were very action packed and exciting but I got tired of listening to the politics in the middle.

This story was okay.. not nearly as exciting as some of the other novels that I have listened to or read. However, for Star Wars enthusiasts like myself, I still think that it is worth a listen.

Being a long-time Star Wars fan, I was skeptical about the stories that were written by people who were not George Lucas. I must say, after getting my first taste with this book, I am left wanting more!! The storyline is so consistent, and it seems like the author crawled into George Lucas' head and was very true to the Star Wars saga. After listening to this book I re-watched Episode 1: The Phantom Menace for the first time since I watched it at the movie theater and was actually able to appreciate much more! The storyline in this audiobook leads VERY WELL into that movie! And the narration and sound effects added greatly to the entertainment value!

Cloak of Deception

Written by Carlos Gomez on March 21st, 2005

  • Book Rating: 4/5

Its an fun read if you are interested in background stories potrayed in the Star Wars Phanton Menace. For example, why Cancellor Valorum got that vote of no confidence and why Qui Gon and Obi-Wan were so involved. 4/5ths of the book is action and the last 1/5 is the conclusion, aka setup for the Phantom Menace.
