“Like all the best novelizations, Alan Dean Foster’s adaptation of
Star Wars: The Force Awakens enriches the movie experience. The
novel goes beyond simply giving us insight into the characters’
thoughts, with plenty of additional scenes painting a broader
picture of the galaxy.”—New York Daily News
“Fast-moving, atmospheric and raises goose-bumps at just the right
moments. [Foster] not only evokes entire onscreen worlds . . . he
also gives us glimpses of an even more vast, unseen universe.”—The
Washington Post
“Was my experience of the film enriched by the book? Yes. No
question. Is the novelization worth reading? Yes. . . . Foster has
written a book that captures the spirit of the film, while
presenting additional information that helps answer some of the
questions that linger.”—Coffee with Kenobi
