Has anyone read these books yet? They are young adult novels about Boba growing up without his dad. Right now they are only out in hardbound, but I guess in March or so they will be out in PB. I really liked the first one. Just got the second and was disappointed. Any other opinions? I don't think they are quite as good as Jude Watson's Jedi Apprentice or Jedi Quest books, although the first one was quite good.

I shall probably read them when they come out in PB. I'm a huge fan of the Appentice and Quest series, and will check them out before I give them to any of the kids in the family,(I never give a kid a book I haven't read first, SW or otherwise) ocassionally they may have to wait till they growup before they'll get them, though SW from Scholastic has been safe so far.

I've read both of them. I'd have to agree that the second one is fairly disapointing. I didn't like the whole thing with the fake windows and force harvester. The fisrt 1 was good but fake. Ididn't like how they like, leaped through space to the moons of bogden. prety stupid but good.

Well, the Boba Fett series is now out in paperback, with a 3rd one released with them. I'll pick them up sooner or later, right now, I'm holding on to cash for that trip to the UK.

"Maze of Deception" I think it has to do more with Aurra Sing

Well I read all the Boba Fett, Jedi Quest and Apprentice out. I found the last BF A New Threat quite interesting. It introduces The New Vilain spoiler alert, just in case...
General Grievous. It's only a short part within the book, but the overall story isn't bad.

Well, I finally picked up the 1st one and read it, some interesting stuff, esp. the events in Clones up to the Arena from his POV, some of the rest is OK, I agree that the moon jumping bit was really a bit farfetched. Surprised that Boba let the bird-guy get close enough to pick his pockets.
