No matter what you thought of Phantom Menace, you just have to love its visual effects and props. Episode I was absolutely radiant with special effects, making use of some 2,000 of them, dwarfing that of previous Star Wars installments and even the CGI-happy Titanic with its now-paltry 500. And the low-tech effects, the physical props of Star Wars, have always been unbelievably detailed, from Luke's scuffed-up speeder to Vader's slightly dinged-up helmet (don't pretend you didn't notice). Phantom Menace continues this tradition proudly, whether it's with Amidala's baroque headgear or the intricately machined (and deadly) armament on a droideka.
A page-turning droolfest, Episode I: The Visual Dictionary stops the film and zooms in on all this eye candy. As he did with the first trilogy in Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary, author-archaeologist David West Reynolds once again elucidates and itemizes with glee, combining witty, pseudo-scholarly prose with clear movie stills and excellent closeup photos of actual props and characters. Every personality and group of note gets its due in this well-labeled, picture-packed book, from the Jedi High Council to the podrace crowd to the sea monsters of Naboo. Craving a closer look at Maul's double lightsaber? Wish you could tell a Neimoidian's rank by the hat on its head? Need some ideas for filling out your podracer toolkit? This is the book for you. --Paul Hughes

Even though I would usually prefer Star Wars books that tell a story, I still like this book very much. It is very valuable, and it has a lot of information on all kinds of things you see from episode one. Usually, the episodes don't really explain anything like what kind of starship the people are standing in, what is this, what is that. But this book tells you everything you need to know. It has cool pictures and detailed information to go along with it. If you want to find out about Episode I, you should definitely get this book.

I am not one of those people who knows all the intricate details of the Star Wars saga. Now there is a younger person (my son) in my life, who saw Episode One, I find myself answering questions about characters and events.
This book is fabulous. It is the usual beautifully crafter Dorling Kindersley book with superb photo illustrations. Anyone familiar with the "Eyewitness" travel guides will appreciate the style.
The book details in archaelogical type detail (the author is an archaeologist - he says he approaches Star Wars as if it is an ancient civilization - looking for all the evidence of how it works) all the artefacts, and the people / characters, giving background details and physical details. It also explains some history and motivations which help you know the people and events easier.
Highly recommended.

This book is the ultimate place for all the information about anything from The Phantom Menace. Full of brilliant pictures and diagrams, with information which is clear on concise. This book is great as a reference which you can pull off the shelf anytime to check something. When looking up something, you always learn something new. Buy it!

Better than original trilogy visual dictionaries
The book has more authentic items and devices than the original visual dictionarie's devices. Shows things like Yoda's lightsaber. E-mail me for questions about Star Wars.

Awesome!
This Book is really cool. I looked at it in my school library and i saw all the different parts of a destroyer droid, Yoda's lightsaber, and Darth Maul's outfit.

I'm seven and I loved the Battle Droid page!
The page on Battle Droids was really neat because it classifies the droids by color and explains how they unfold and what their duties are. I have read that page over and over. Lesen Sie weiter...
