I'm closing in on the halfway mark of the 420-page tome, but it's going by so fast that I'm sad that I'm already that far into it. It's been a wild and fun romp so far and very, very informative. I've probably learned more about the production of Star Wars in the past week than I have in years. It makes Empire of Dreams just look like more marketing fluff. You really ream George when he deserves it, but I too find a sympathetic hook to him reading this. It's not especially biased. It points out when he's obviously lying but in an objective way and has just as much praise for him as well. My only complaint is the repetition of a lot of things, but with a book this huge and having had no editor, it seems inevitable, and it's certainly not enough to make me put it down.
