Win the Clone Wars Novel!


Win the Clone Wars Novel!

Get the novel for Star Wars: The Clone Wars!

We've got three copies of Star Wars: The Clone Wars official novel to give away!

About the Book:

Novelisations usually suffer the same fate as video game adaptations of blockbuster movies - they fail to capture the spirit of the source material and are rushed and created by folk with no real inclination of delivering a quality product. So it may surprise you that we find it very easy to recommend any Star Wars fan to read Karen Traviss' novelisation of this terrible movie.

The Clone Wars novel is well worth your time though at 250 pages it won't take much of it. It fleshes out what the movie shows us by adding a layer of character depth which was sorely missing from the movie. It is the better of the two mediums, and considering it's priced the same as a movie ticket, you'd be better off settling for the book.

How to Win:

To go in the draw, all you need to do is post a comment below telling us why you think you deserve to win a copy of the novel!


This competition has now closed.

This would be great - hubby is the biggest Star Wars freak out there and I must drive him nuts constantly asking 'who are they?, what's happening now?, etc etc. So this would be fantastic, I might be able to tell him a few things for a change!
 
madvixReplyPosted by madvix on 18 August 2008, 11:25AM
I think I should because I used to have lots of the figurines first time round and my mother sold them for a pittance at a garage sale! Bah!

I would like to win the book so I can take it and donate it to the Invercargill hospice as there is nothing like a new book to take minds of treatments.

I would love to give this to my nephew he is a huge fan, I have even managed to convince him that i was a stormtrooper in Empire strikes back and I that i am tight with George Lucas. Giving this book to him would solidify my position as number one uncle

Because it might help remove the stain that Ziro The Hutt has left on my mind.

"Helloo Sen-a-tah, I do buhleev that yall should give Koopa a-this here noh-vul."

Might also help with the Droids. I'm pretty sure i saw an Apple logo on one of them.

:P

i'm not really a reader of novels.... but if its star wars, i'm there
 
coderReplyPosted by coder on 18 August 2008, 06:21PM
There's a book??? I always try to read the books before I see the movies because I never enjoy a book after it's been movietised. Perhaps it's because the visual images from the screen take precedence over my own imagination. I just wish I'd know the Star Wars books were available before I watched the movies. I'll definitely be in to read this one first!

Haha you should see my book shelf. I am a self confessed Star Wars geek (I've just finished the Legacy of the Force 9 book series),and I absolutely love the extended Star Wars Universe. I haven't got this book but would love it to add to my historic knowledge of Star Wars! Hook us up! :-)

I'm one of the biggest Star Wars freaks in NZ. I got alot of old school SW books and I'm wanting to see how the novel of the film is. And Karen Traviss is one of the best SW authors out there, just wanted to say that. Love her work.

A long time ago
in an office far far away

Episode 2.5
clone Wars

A lonely games
playing geek who
is a great star wars
fan can still remember
his first viewing of A
New Hope at the movies.

He loved it so much
it became the first
movie he actualy went
to see twice. Now -
eagerly anticipating the
next George Lucas production,
he hopes that perhaps he can
sate his appetite with a book of the film.
 
PamelaJeanReplyPosted by PamelaJean on 19 August 2008, 02:18PM
Loved the film and looking forward to reading the book and passing it on to my son as he is the greatedt fan.
 
abwReplyPosted by abw on 19 August 2008, 04:26PM
Love the movie, but I also love to read, and I get more out of a book, books usually have more detail that you miss in the movie as well.
 
KarbyrReplyPosted by Karbyr on 19 August 2008, 06:09PM
Because the only Star Wars book I have is a Pop-Up Book from when I was 3. And I think it's about time I grew up and read a big boy book. :)
 
BaalZebubblesReplyPosted by BaalZebubbles on 19 August 2008, 06:16PM
"I love Star Wars" + "I love reading" = "I will win this
prize".
 
Buzz BumbleReplyPosted by Buzz Bumble on 19 August 2008, 06:28PM
Hmmmm ... a bookcase solely for Star Wars books, another for Star Wars games, a spare room double-cupboard and two desk drawers full of Star Wars merchandise, and even more Star Wars merchandise stored in my car boot (the only reason it's not all on display is because it's too time consuming to dust it all!) ... I think you might call me a slight "fan". Adding The Clone Wars items to my collection is a no-brainer ... I'm surprised George Lucas hasn't already sent me a copy personally. ;o)
 
LutheneiorReplyPosted by Lutheneior on 19 August 2008, 06:38PM
I think I deserve the book, because my name is Luke and I think star wars is awesome, I have been a fan for years. At least once every fortnight someone says to me randomly "Use the force Luke" or "Luke, I am your father".
 
Jordan18ReplyPosted by Jordan18 on 19 August 2008, 06:40PM
I love STAR WARS especially The Clone Wars. I've watched all the Movies at least 100 times so to get this book and then go see the movie would be awesome.
 
fran68ReplyPosted by fran68 on 19 August 2008, 07:03PM
i shoud have it because i never win anything and i love star wars...yeah gee
 
BJWReplyPosted by BJW on 19 August 2008, 07:36PM
My son would absolutely go wild over this novel 'STAR WARS THE CLONE WARS' as he is crazy over Star Wars. He and his best friend talk Star Wars, text and chat on the computer Star Wars every day. He has posters all over his walls, door and even on the ceiling of his bedroom with a Star Wars duvet bought by good old Mum. His old videos have just about expired through constant watching. I would love to win this book for him as it may keep him out of my hair for an day or two while he reads this Clone Wars novel.

I have never watched any of the Star Wars movies, and I know almost nothing of the storyline. If I were to win this novel, I'd read it then be encouraged to learn more about the Star Wars series... If it's good...
