Talk:Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (novel)

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

[edit] Differences from Film

I found one error, there may be others. This is based on the 1983 paperback edition of the novel (I don't think it's changed in all these years though).

Page 117 read thus: [quote] He looked down at their intertwined fingers. "Leia... do you remember your mother. Your real mother?" The question took her totally by surprise. She'd always felt so close to her adopted parents, it was as if they were her real parents. She almost never thought of her real mother--that was like a dream. Yet now Luke's question made her start. Flashes from her infancy assaulted her--distorted visions of running... a beautiful woman... hiding in a trunk. The fragments suddenly threatened to flood her with emotion. "Yes," she said, pausing to regain her composure. "Just a little bit. She died when I was very young." "What do you remember?" he pressed. "Tell me."

Page 118:

"Just feelings, really... images." She wanted to let it slide, it was so out of the blue, so far from her immediate concerns... but somehow so loud inside, all of a sudden. "Tell me," Luke repeated. She felt surprised by his insistence, but decided to follow him with it, at least for the time being. She trusted him, even when he frightened her. "Gentle and kind--but sad." She looked deeply into his eyes, seeking his intentions. "Why are you asking me this?" He turned away, peering back up at the Death Star, as if he'd been on the verge of opening up; then something scared him, and he pulled it all in once more. "I have no memory of my mother, I never knew her."

So Luke doesn't remember her in the novel, just like in the movie.

[edit] Cover

Just like the Episode V novel, it proved very difficult to find a proper book cover, but I posted the one I thought the best. Snoop 12:51, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Split notice

No way, now way should this be split, just get more people to work on it, give me 2 weeks, and I could make it a featured article!
