I really love this adaptation. Revenge of the Sith has always been my favorite Star Wars movie, and this book highlighted all the things I love without most of the things I don't. The only flaws it has, I would say, are ones from the original film. I can't give 5 full stars to something that does Padmé so dirty, though. ("This is what it's like to be Padmé Amidala.... she is Anakin Skywalker's wife." Please stop doing this to her I'm begging.)
