Canto Bight (Star Wars): Journey to Star Wars: The Last Jedi, by Mira Grant, Rae Carson, Saladin Ahmed

1.0

Given the names involved, I expected a lot more. The stories themselves are entertaining, if nothing special. But in no way do they serve as an introduction to Canto Bight as seen in "The Last Jedi". The humorous stories in the book deal with underdogs having their day in improbable ways. In the film, however, Canto Bight is a symbol of corruption and profiteering from wars in the worst possible way; if there's a serious political statement in the movie, this is it. After seeing the movie, the stories in this book feel like a betrayal, a travesty of everything the movie stands for.
