  <description><![CDATA[One of the more prolific--and proficient--<em>Star Wars</em> authors, Kevin J. Anderson, edits and contributes to this anthology of ... well, tales from Jabba's palace. Each of the 19 short tales focuses on a different personality, from the rancor keeper to Salacious Crumb, putting faces and facts on the internecine intrigue swirling around everyone's favorite Huttese crime lord. (As it turns out, you <em>can</em> find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy than Mos Eisley.) Find out how Bib Fortuna hoped to overthrow Jabba, or hear the philosophical ramblings of a not-so-bright teenage skiff guard. Or, perhaps best, learn how Boba Fett escaped the Sarlacc in the Great Pit of Carkoon. Style, mood, and quality vary by author, but these <em>Tales</em> are mostly funny and mostly well done, including those by Anderson, <em>Star Trek</em> author A.C. Crispin, Nebula-winner George Alec Effinger, and Hugo-winner Timothy Zahn. <em>--Paul Hughes</em>]]></description>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is mostly crap. However it's almost GOOD crap, if that makes any sense. It's, say, slightly above the level of fan-fiction. Characters that had no lines now get their whole history told, which makes me think some of these artists had a favorite action-figure growing up, and decided to writ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/22777418">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book became annoying pretty fast. A collection of short stories by semi-renowned sci-fi writers, they unfortunately tried to overlap and intertwine to make one great plot of Jabba's demise. Most of the stories were of very minor characters from the movie, not worth reading, and the only story I...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40806470">more...</a>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[One of the more prolific--and proficient--<em>Star Wars</em> authors, Kevin J. Anderson, edits and contributes to this anthology of ... well, tales from Jabba's palace. Each of the 19 short tales focuses on a different personality, from the rancor keeper to Salacious Crumb, putting faces and facts on the internecine intrigue swirling around everyone's favorite Huttese crime lord. (As it turns out, you <em>can</em> find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy than Mos Eisley.) Find out how Bib Fortuna hoped to overthrow Jabba, or hear the philosophical ramblings of a not-so-bright teenage skiff guard. Or, perhaps best, learn how Boba Fett escaped the Sarlacc in the Great Pit of Carkoon. Style, mood, and quality vary by author, but these <em>Tales</em> are mostly funny and mostly well done, including those by Anderson, <em>Star Trek</em> author A.C. Crispin, Nebula-winner George Alec Effinger, and Hugo-winner Timothy Zahn. <em>--Paul Hughes</em>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Best of the 'Tales of...' anthologies. Lots of characters that got ten seconds of screen time get their stories told. A couple really fun ones, but the rest are fairly forgettable, but the fact that they are all happening during the scene from 'Return of Jedi I thought was hilarious. <br/>Love the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/20284706">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[An intriguing collection of stories from a variety of respected Star Wars authors, but they're a bit hit and miss. The stories about the rancor-keeper, Boba Fett, and Yarna d'al Gargan and Oola were particularly interesting - the rest have sort of faded into the background for me.

    <![CDATA[One of the more prolific--and proficient--<em>Star Wars</em> authors, Kevin J. Anderson, edits and contributes to this anthology of ... well, tales from Jabba's palace. Each of the 19 short tales focuses on a different personality, from the rancor keeper to Salacious Crumb, putting faces and facts on the internecine intrigue swirling around everyone's favorite Huttese crime lord. (As it turns out, you <em>can</em> find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy than Mos Eisley.) Find out how Bib Fortuna hoped to overthrow Jabba, or hear the philosophical ramblings of a not-so-bright teenage skiff guard.
