I really thought this book was a fantastic seamless representation of the UnderWater Mon Calamari world/Prince Lee Char ARC and Episodes in The Clone Wars 2008 Series. I didn’t note any noticeable changes or differences compared to the Episodes in the scripts and plotlines themselves, but that may be due to the fact that I raced through the book because it was so much fun to read and I was so eager to read this phenomenal book. I love the step-by-step plot leading from start to finish each event in the whole book. Once again, I believe that this book was so seamless and whole as a story because it was written by one person again: Rob Valois. And again, Rob Valois wrote the most accurate Episode Adaption “Lair of Grievous” in the 2nd Clone Wars Episodes Junior Novelizations Chapter Book “Grievous Attacks!”, so there’s no reason to doubt him of the ability of creating the most accurate Adaptions of not only one, not two, but THREE different Episode Adaptions in this book. I could follow the events of the three episodes and the book extremely easily from start to finish, although I wasn’t exactly able to tell the different Episode Adaption’s starts and finishes apart due to the book not specifying them directly. The characters were accurate portrayals as seen in The Clone Wars 2008 Television Show, especially Jar Jar Binks, a very hard character to portray loveably, Ahsoka Tano and her statement of a very famous/specific quote happening to take place in these Episode Adaptions, and Prince Lee Char himself, how he started off as a quiet, meek and scared boy who wanted to run away from all of his problems to his palace bedroom and never take responsibility because he hadn’t expected to for a very long time, having still expected his father the King to be alive for a while longer and not have such an unexpected and tragic death (rather murder), to turning into a wildly courageous and proud leader who rallied not only his people but the Gungan Warriors, the Clone Army and the Quarren behind him as he finished off his planet’s civil war successfully to a winning victory for his people rather than have them as prisoners working in ore mines, graduating himself to the position of King rightfully as he deserved rather than just as inherited, as well as Riff Tamson as a horrifying and cruel villain, the utter disbelief of the cruelty of Count Dooku beyond what we even knew and would’ve guessed before with forcing the Mon Calamari children and woman to work in the Ore Mines as well if he’d have had it his way, and even Nossor Ri as a meek leader, however I thought in the Adaption he was portrayed as meeker and quieter than he was in the Episodes, however I loved to read his thought process about Riff Tamson, Dooku and the Separatist’s slow, tragic, complete and utter takeover of his home planet. I didn’t like the description of the ink weapon of the Quarren, but I liked the depiction of the character of Captain Ackbar (soon to be Admiral Ackbar in Episode 6: The Return of the Jedi). I love how loyal the Captain was to Lee Char’s orders and not the Jedi out of loyalty to his planet and its rightful ruler, even if he agreed with the Jedi’s plan and perspective over Lee Char. I liked how the book included the first name of Prince Lee Char’s father, instead of just being King Kolina being known as King Yos Kolina was a nice detail. Also I enjoyed learning the Clone Commander’s name who leads the Clone part of the attack, and how loyal he is to his orders. I liked learning more about the vicious Karkarodon Shark-Like Species that Tamson was apart of, and how awfully they used their razor-sharp teeth to injure, fight and kill/murder others by tearing them apart into a million tiny pieces. I also enjoyed the descriptions of the Quarren and Mon Calamari Alien Species features, they were highly accurate and descriptive, including the Quarren’s face tentacles and mouth/teeth and the Mon Calamari’s eyes. The book overall gave a ton of insight into the many different well-loved and well-known character’s thoughts about events and other characters throughout the book, including Nossor Ri, Jar Jar Binks and the Gungan’s Leadership, as well as a nicely described setting and the backdrop/backgrounds were described beautifully and perfectly accurately, possibly even more accurately than the Episode showed them. The descriptions of the Dark Waters, the Underground Surface Caves, the Throne Room, Mon Calamari Throne itself, Travel Tubes, Tower, and Mon Calamari Main Cities were all phenomenal and highly descriptive, very helpful to visualizing the story and plot throughout the book itself. I found a lot of insight into the Prisoners, Gungans, Mon Calamari, and Clones of the Mon Cala invasion, and the Prison Camps/Marches. It was very interesting to see compared to watching the Episodes themselves. I loved the inclusion of the slowly growing friendship between Padawan Ahsoka Tano and Prince Lee Char as they were in hiding/being protected together in the caves, slowly evolving to Ahsoka trusting the Prince’s plan, getting ready and prepared to protect him at all costs, and the trust formed between them to protect and potentially save his life multiple times. I enjoyed the inclusion of Kit Fisto and his superior underwater fighting skills, although it was very small in the moments they were described. I loved how the Gungan General stated how proud he was to serve for the Republic and the priority he placed on saving Padmé/Senator Amidala of Naboo. I didn’t really like how they claimed Anakin and Padmé were only friends and only hinted at strong feelings, although any true Star Wars fan knows right now that they’re married secretly and it’s love, not just friendship or strong feelings. I really enjoyed the ending of the book, with Lee Char instated as the rightful King not just by blood but because he earned it, and the cries of “Long Live King Lee Char!” as were cried at the end of The Clone Wars Episode as they panned out above the throne room on Mon Cala. The book overall was extremely inspiring and gave me a lot of hope and inspired a ton of hopefulness and happiness in my heart, as well as lightened it. I couldn’t stop reading it honestly, I sped through it and read it so fast, I loved how well it all came together and the perfect ending. This Adaption was absolutely PERFECTION with its Clone Wars Episode counterpart and accuracy. Highly enjoyable and recommended to anybody who’s a Star Wars or especially a Clone Wars fan.
