From a Certain Point of View: The Empire Strikes Back by Elizabeth Schaefer
5.0
Have you ever watched a movie or read a book over and over again, and wished you could forget what happens to enjoy it for the first time again?
The "From a Certain Point of View" strikes back. This series is based around the unique concept of rediscovering classic stories through the eyes of bystanders. After the first book in the series "From a Certain Point of View: A New Hope" took us through the first Star Wars movie of the original Trilogy, this novel takes us through the plot of the second movie "The Empire Strikes Back", a great movie, with perhaps one of the greatest plot twists in movie history. I enjoyed every short-story from the first novel, and this new collection did just as much.
You discover through this novel that secondary characters, or even just background characters, have a story, a life, motivations and perhaps a different point of view on the events happening in the galaxy.
Highly recommend. I enjoyed the first novel, loved the second and can't wait for the third (unannounced, probable release in 2023) in the series of "From a Certain Point of View".
