I enjoyed this book as a fantastic summary of The Clone Wars Episode Arc of the journey of the Clone Troopers that make up Domino Squad from start to finish, from the group of five individual Clones training in the facilities on Kamino, graduating after they learn to work together to conquer the course and accept each other’s flaws and differences as friends and brothers, to their first Post on the Rishi Moon and the unfortunate occurrences and events there, the loss of many of the original members of Domino Squad sadly, the assignment of the remaining members official Unit, and finally, the journey to upgrade themselves to the ultimate level of Clone Trooper: an ARC Trooper. The book includes large levels and lessons of acceptance, friendship, loyalty, bravery, brotherhood, sacrifices, believing in others, mentorship, teaching, and conquering and overcoming your personal flaws, selfishness or shortsightedness that are fantastic for young children to learn. The book has a great progression of these lessons over the time of the three short stories included in the book. I couldn’t seem to understand, however, why another adaption of the Episode “Rookies” was included in this book in The Clone Wars Junior Novelization Chapter Book Series while an adaption of it was already included in the second book in the series, “Grievous Attacks!” I was hoping for some major differences in this Adaption as the previous one was by a different author, and Rob Valois (the author of this book) previously authored the “Lair of Grievous” Adaption in “Grievous Attacks!” which I remember being the most accurate as to not leaving out any details in the storyline and plot of that book, whereas the other stories in the book left out some certain details in each story or slightly changed things. I was hoping that all of these stories would be extremely accurate with the details in the storyline and plot as seen in the original Clone Wars Episodes because they were also written by Rob Valois, and he’d done well in that story (“Lair of Grievous”) that I’d read before from “Grievous Attacks!”. However I noticed that in the first story “Clone Cadets” everything appeared to be very accurate and correct to the original storyline and Episode. But in the second story, “Rookies”, although one detail I hadn’t liked from the previous adaption was fixed (the fact that Cutup was killed by the giant Rishi Eel, it wasn’t included in the first Adaption in “Grievous Attacks!” (It was completely omitted) but it was included in this Adaption). However “Rookies” had a TON of spelling errors, grammar mistakes and other issues such as the original Adaption. I half wonder if they copied and pasted the original Adaption from “Grievous Attacks!” and then edited it however they’d liked with whatever details they wanted fixed, but didn’t rewrite or change the overall story/Episode Adaption. I noticed that (perhaps I just didn’t notice it in the Original Episode Adaption from “Grievous Attacks!”) a lot of the times they got the Clones names mixed up. A lot of the time they spelled “Fives” name without an “s” on the end as “Five”, and we all know as fans that isn’t correct because Fives legitimately corrects somebody in-universe in The Clone Wars animated series about having an “s” on the end of his name (I believe it’s AZ; the medical droid from Season 6: The Lost Missions in the Episodes where Fives eventually ends up). Also they’d be speaking and it would say one Clone said this, but the next Clone they stated was speaking wouldn’t make sense or match up with the first statement. I hope you understand what I’m saying here. Also they overused many words. I did like how they didn’t change what Cody said as they attempted to entire the facility overtaken by droids, as they did in the “Grievous Attacks!” Adaption, and that they didn’t shy away from death as a whole and the tragedy and sadness of losing a brother and comrade in these stories. Truly that is essential to the plot lines of these stories. Finally, I thought the “ARC Troopers” Episode Adaption was great, a fantastic summary of that Episode, but some of it was definitely inaccurate, or at least heavily changed/modified compared to the original Clone Wars Episode’s event’s details. The events themselves and their outcomes were not changed, but the details and how they occurred definitely were, such as the Cadets and their fight against the Droids, how they didn’t fire from the bunks in a surprise attack as seen in the show but instead “advanced in formation” as described in the Adaption. Otherwise, I really, highly enjoyed how well this entire Novelization/Adaption linked together with the three stories from the beginning to the end. Perhaps it was because all three were written from the perspective of one and the same author that they interconnected so well as a storyline over the three stories. I’d recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of Clones in the Star Wars Universe in general, especially Fives, Hevy or Echo, even Rex or Cody, Anakin, Shaak Ti, or Obi-Wan, any fans of stories that take place on Kamino, involve Bounty Hunters or Training, Brotherhood, Alliances, Friendship, Loyalty, Faith, Bravery, and finally just the Star Wars Universe and the Galactic Civil War known as The Clone Wars in general!!
