Two words: Star Wars. Do I have your attention? I thought so. Jedis, lightsabers, Yoda, Sith Lords -- all the things with which childhoods are made.
Think about your time in grade school. Now think about that same grade school with a bunch of Jedis-in-training and Yoda as the headmaster. That’s Jeffrey Brown’s new book Star Wars: Jedi Academy in a nutshell. Following in the successes of his previous Star Wars books, Vader and Son and Vader’s Little Princess, Brown brings his lovable style back with a prose book telling the story of Roan, a young lad who dreamed of going to pilot school, only to be rejected and subsequently invited to Jedi Academy by a green fellow named Yoda. The rest is history -- or is it?
You’ll have to pick up the book to find out!
