Introducing a new, quarterly, graphic-novella series based on the exciting new "Clone Wars" motion picture and animated television series. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I am really enjoying this series of graphic novellas. They have the same feel of the television show's episodes, but they are able to fit more story. Several concepts, including carbon freezing and hyperspace jumps, are explored in interesting new ways. Several of the visuals and lines in the book are nods to the original and prequel trilogies. The story keeps you captivated, from start to finish. I read this book in one sitting, because I just didn't want to stop. Overall, a fantastic addition to the Star Wars universe.
Clone Wars graphic novel

Shipyards of Doom is the first volume in a quarterly, graphic-novella series by Dark Horse and is based on The Clone Wars as presented in last year's film and the current TV series. If you are reading this review, I assume you are OK with the graphic novel format that seems to be rapidly increasing in popularity. We have come a long ways from the old comic books. Now the books are printed on heavy stock as trade paperbacks, and the graphics are uniformly excellent. The story in this book deals with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Ahsoka Tano (Anakin's Padawan) and their mission to infiltrate the Banking Clan Shipyards and destroy Separatist warships under construction. Without a successful conclusion to the mission, the Separatist forces may begin to overwhelm the Republic armies. The story is a good one, the characters are presented well, and the graphics are great fun to look at. Give Shipyards of Doom a try.

This book is great for Sar Wars fans. It is a mix of exciting space battles and some good ground battles, too. The storyline is fantastic, and has many suprises with each turn of the page. I give this book five stars!
