Lit OT novelizations from Barnes & Noble?

If we had B&N in the UK I'd be looking for this.

 

I am a few chapters into the ANH novelization. I must say, I am really pleased with it.

Yes, as someone pointed out above, it closely tracks the movie. A lot of stuff is word-for-word the same. That said, there is more than enough difference to make it a fascinating read. I love seeing a written description of actions we take for granted in the film, being able to see the "thoughts" of the characters, and the extra scenes or parts of scenes we don't get in the movie. It's really interesting to see how things changed from the novelization to the movie, too.

I will admit, some of the references are out of place. There are a lot of references to real-world things (animals, objects, etc.) that are out of place in a Star Wars piece. Still, the references get the points across. Other than that, it flows really well and is a quick read. Even though I know everything (well, not everything; some changes!) that is going to happen, I am still really hungry for more. This was definitely a good buy!
