"Darth Maul's Revenge" is an expanded universe look into Darth Maul. This book flushes out the events surrounding Maul's confrontation with Qui-Gon Jinn on Tatooine. In this telling, Darth Maul is sent to the desert planet. There, he launches his 'dark eye' probe droids. While waiting for news, he trains. Falling into a trap, Darth Maul is surprised to find out that the Tusken Raiders can give a Dark Lord of the Sith a challenge. He eventually hears word from his probe droids. While he fails to stop the Jedi, he vows revenge - a promise he eventually makes good on. The beginning and end of the plot act as markers that connect this expanded universe story with "the Phantom Menace." Darth Maul has always been one of most interesting yet elusive characters of the saga. Unlike in the film, Maul speaks more than two lines. In this title, his character development is significantly flushed out. The reader is able to get into Maul's head and learn about his life style and world view. In this respect, "Darth Maul's Revenge" compliments "Darth Maul's Journal." The writing is strong and at times it is surprisingly poetic for a book best suited for third grade readers. Unlike the journal, this book features attractive illustrations. When it comes to Star Wars books for young readers, it doesn't get much better. "Darth Maul's Revenge" is an exciting and in-depth look into one of Star Wars' most mysterious characters.

This book is a Step into Reading book, and is a Step 3 book (for grades 2-3). Did you see Star Wars Episode 1? Did you see Darth Maul sent out after the Jedi, and his subsequent attack on Qui-Gon Jinn on Tatooine? Well, this book tells the story from Darth Maul's perspective. It covers his conversation on Coruscant with Darth Sidious, his trip to Tatooine, and his adventures on that planet.
My son was very happy to get this book; he started reading and then proclaimed, "This is so cool!" This book is chocked full of matte illustrations, and containing a short, but well written story. My son and I both highly recommend this book.
