The separatists have gathered
on the Mustafar system.
I'm goingthere to end this war.
Wait for me until I return.
Things will be different.
I promise.
Please, wait for me.
Well, he is under
a lot of stress, R2.
Take care, my little friend.
Oh, my lady,
is thereanything I might do?
No, thank you, 3PO.
I feel so helpless.
How many other Jedi
have managed to survive?
Heard from no one have we.
I saw thousands of troops
attack the Jedi temple.
That's why I went looking for Yoda.
Have we had any contact
from the temple?
Received a coded
retreat message we have.
It requests all Jedi
to return to the temple.
- It says the war is over.
- Then we must go back.
If there are any stragglers, they will
fall into the trap and be killed.
Suggest dismantling
the coded signal, do you?
Yes, Master.
There is too much at stake.

I agree.
And a little more knowledge
might light our way.
The plan has gone
as you had promised, my lord.
You have done well, Viceroy.
When my new apprentice
Darth Vader arrives...
he will take care of you.
We're receiving a message from
the chancellor's offce, sir.
- Send it through.
- Yes, sir.
Senator Organa, the supreme chancellor
requests your presence...
at a specialsession of Congress.
- I will be there.
- He'll be expecting you.
- Could be a trap.
- I don't think so.
The chancellor will not be able to
control the thousands of star systems...
without keeping
the senate intact.
If a special session
of Congressthere is...
easier for us to enter
the Jedi temple it will be.
R2, stay with the ship.
Welcome, Lord Vader.
We've been expecting you.
And the Jedi rebellion
has been foiled.
What's happened?
The chancellor's been elaborating on a
plot by the Jedi to overthrow the senate.
Return Of The Jedi Script
| by Matthew Stover
Showing 1-25 of 29 (next | show all) Obviously you could take any substandard movie and write in each character's internal monologue until their actions made sense. But to see this treatment on such a famous trilogy is rare, and these books really do redeem the films in my mind, even if they had little to do with Lucas' vision. Anakin's betrayal makes more sense. Padme is given more of a role in the story. Obi-wan is still awesome. Fleshing out this story really does create an entirely new one. Rewatching the films after reading the novel makes the entire experience a little more enjoyable. ( ) Ajepp15 | Sep 4, 2020 | This probably the best Star Wars book ever written, but more than that, it's just a damn good book period. If Lucas's film was anything like this, it would have been up for an Oscar. The only places the book suffers, are the area's where Stover can't escape Lucas's storytelling. Why are the Jedi and Anakin so stupid and blind when it came to Palpatine? He couldn't have been more obvious if he'd gone around with a bell on. And I refuse to believe that the Jedi's stupid and unrealistic 'let it go' in response to all grief hasn't fucked them over in the past. Stover removes most of the terrible dialogue, but he does include Obi-Wan's hypercritical 'Jedi don't deal in absolutes', which made as much sense here as it did in the film. Stover also includes Obi-Wan's rant to Anakin once he's been defeated, but it doesn't quite mesh with the calm Stover described Obi-Was as feeling. But seriously, if you're a Star Wars fan you should read this book. If you're a sci-fantasy fan you only has a passing knowledge of Star Wars you should read this book. This is an amazing book. ( ) Fardo | Oct 15, 2019 | Whoo this book is a WILD RIDE y'all. It has a very specific tone which took me back a little bit, but it works so well throughout and just like drives it home again and again. It was rough sometimes to read--not because it was bad but in fact because it was too good and Anakin's journey was so rough to follow emotionally. But I really cannot recommend it highly enough if you like Star Wars; it's really an incredible telling of a movie I know many people didn't like, and I think the insights in it really make so much more of it fall into place. ( ) aijmiller | Oct 10, 2018 | Simply the best. A tragedy worthy of shakespeare's talent and indeed written by an author who truly understands every dramatic facet of Star Wars. Whether or not you like the movie version, the novelization by Stover fixes the things that were weak and strengthens the things that were great. A grand and incredibly intimate books that deserves a hundred re-readings. ( ) DanielRobledo | Jan 17, 2018 | This is the heart wrenching story the movie tried to be but simply stumbled too many times to ever successfully accomplish. I started this book and from the beginning felt just incredibly sad. I finished this book flat out sobbing. Every time someone asked me what I was reading, I had to finish my sentence with: it's such a good book! Because, mostly, novelizations are pale shadows to their original movie counterparts. This one, however, this one takes a story about love and pain and anger and forms it into something tragic. It wipes away all the stumblings of the movie. It treats Anakin Skywalker like the tragic fallen hero he always deserved to be; it treated Obi-Wan Kenobi like the benevolently shining light of the prequel series we always knew he was. While it's the line from this book that is the most quoted, it really does so perfectly encapsulate everything that Star Wars is meant to be and everything this book succeeds at even when the movie struggled to make it to this point: 'Love can ignite the stars.' ( ) eaduncan | Sep 14, 2017 | Revenge of the Sith is often considered to be the best of the prequel trilogy of Star Wars films, if only for the dramatic second half when Anakin Skywalker converts to the dark side of the force and carries out dreadful deeds at the behest of his new master, the Sith Lord, Darth Sidious, followed by the tragic ending involving him and Padme. However, I thought this book was the weakest of the three novelisations of the trilogy. The author seems less assured than those of the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones novelisations, the book was overwritten and the descriptions of lightsaber and spaceship dogfights seemed too lengthy and tedious here. It is 100 pages longer than its predecessors, but the really dramatic second half, one of the most gripping and tragic sequences in all the Star Wars films and books when Anakin goes bad, occupies only the last quarter of the book and feels a bit rushed. There is a lot of introspection about the Force, including one fight sequence when Obiwan feels the Force in everything around him, including the enemies he fights, which poses the question, how does he or any other Jedi knight ever suffer defeat or have to trouble about vanquishing the dark side, when they could just think them into defeat? So, overall, somewhat disappointing. ( ) john257hopper | Jan 27, 2017 | reading this and 'Shatterpoint' by the same author were revelatory experiences. ( ) bensdad00 | Jan 10, 2017 | this book was incredible. Mr Stover should be writing theologicalphilosophical books instead of pulp fiction. This shows the underlying emotions that are swirling thru everyone. I was saddened yet the hope at the end was just incredible. Incredible is a good word for this book. ( ) BookstoogeLT | Dec 10, 2016 | I've described the novelizations for both The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones as must-reads for Star Wars fans, and while that's true, I think they pale in comparison to the novelization for Revenge of the Sith. It's already the strongest of the prequel trilogy when it comes to the films, and Matthew Stover's adaptation manages to further flesh out the thoughts, feelings and attitudes of both the heroes and villains. It is an absolutely riveting story, and any fan of Star Wars – particularly those who want to get into reading more books in the series, should consider this book mandatory reading. ( ) aliasphoenix | Mar 18, 2016 | Fantastic book. Best work in the series that I've read so far. ( ) HungryMonster | Mar 10, 2016 | Fantastic book. Best work in the series that I've read so far. ( ) HungryMonster | Mar 10, 2016 | With the commercials about the upcoming Star War movie, I am glad to read this book. In March I read the novelization of the movies that came out in the 1970's - 80's. In April I read The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones. I wasn't as impressed with those two as the first three, so took a break. Maybe that time span helped, but this was a fun read. At the end there was a battle between Mace and Sidious. Knowing how it ended took a lot of enjoyment out of the battle. I hate spoilers. 1,060 members; 3.92 average rating; 11/22/2015 ( ) mainrun | Dec 13, 2015 | The official novelization of Star Wars Revenge Of The Sith is based on both the story and screenplay by George Lucas. Because of this fact, the book communicates the same story as the movie but with much extended scenes as well as some altered details such as dialog. The tale of Anakin Skywalker's fall to the dark side is nicely fleshed out in this novel and I have to say that once things get rolling the book is hard to put down. If you plan on reading James Luceno's Labyrinth Of Evil, I suggest that you do so before reading this novel. Luceno's prequel is excellent, but once you have read Revenge Of The Sith there is really no need to go back in time and read Labyrinth Of Evil. Matthew Stover does a fine job of delivering this story in a fully understandable format, even if you haven't read any Star Wars novels from the expanded universe. Over all, this novel is a good thick one with all the great stuff that you expect from Star Wars. Several references to events that occurred in previous expanded universe novels are scattered throughout this book but there aren't so many that you would get lost if you haven't read those novels. So, if you are a fan of all things Star Wars or if you haven't yet explored beyond the movies, I believe that you will enjoy this dramatic story. ( ) Revan97 | Aug 28, 2014 | Much like their film counterparts, when book one came out I was ecstatic, for book two I was skeptical but optimistic, and when book three reared its head I was indifferent and mostly over it. The conventional wisdom says that it's better to have angry fans instead of apathetic ones, and by the time Anakin Skywalker donned the helmet, fully becoming Darth Vader, I couldn't have cared less. This is not how I wish to remember the backstory of the original Star Wars movies. From now on I will imagine my own history. ( ) Daniel.Estes | Mar 4, 2013 | I am a second-generation Star Wars fan, so when my dad bought Revenge of the Sith, I definitely had to borrow it from him and read it. While I enjoyed getting to know the characters in a new way, I wasn't all that impressed with this book. However, that didn't surprise me, because I also wasn't impressed with the movie on which Stover based it. You do get more from the book than in the movie -- especially in terms of character development. I think that Stover went a lot more into Yoda's feelings about the fall of the Republic and he did a great job in showing the friendship between Obi-Wan and Anakin. I loved that. For me, it brought entirely new elements into the story line that I had never thought of and made Luke's story a little more interesting, even. However, the same problems that were in the movie still persist. I get that Anakin was tempted to the Dark Side, and that clouds his judgment, but he truly loves these people. In the book, how he feels for Padme and Obi-Wan is way more obvious than it is in the movie. Yet, within a chapter he changes and is ready to turn is back on Obi-Wan, who is practically his brother at this point, and then he even becomes suspicious of Padme, the woman he used to trust absolutely. I think a lot more development and explanation was needed for this character shift, because otherwise, it simply seems too convenient. Also, don't think that you can read this book without watching the movie. Stover relies heavily on the fact that the reader knows what he's talking about and what's going on. Not much description or explanation is given in terms of places, characters, and background information. This isn't a problem for those of us who have seen the movies (although it does make the writing feel less developed), but it would be a huge problem for someone who only wanted to pick up the book. However, for a Star Wars fan, Revenge of the Sith is still an okay read. I wouldn't say that you should go out of your way to read it, but it's kind of cool to get a different perspective on all the characters and what they're feeling about all the chaos that's going on in this novel. Star Wars in general is a brilliant story about growing up, love, friendship, doing what's right, and making hard choices. No matter what format it's in, that holds true throughout all the stories ( ) sedelia | Nov 8, 2012 | This book is pretty good if you have read the other books based on the movies. However, Stover really helps because it does tie with the rest of the saga so yeah it's awesome! ( ) NotoriousBIGeek | Nov 6, 2011 | This book is a great book . IT REALLY TIES IN THE WHOLE STARS WARS SERIES. STAR WARS FANS WILL LOVE IT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. ( ) mrdoan72 | Dec 21, 2010 | I had already seen the movie several times before I read this book, but I was completely unprepared for just how amazing this would be. This is no mere novelization, this is the legendary tragedy of Darth Vader that everyone has been waiting for since the prequels were announced. For every promise the movie failed to keep, this novel delivers tenfold. Read this book! ( ) knightfall1123 | May 17, 2010 | I blubbered like a baby, and mourned for characters that I loved, Something I just quite couldn't do with the films. Knew the story, knew the ending, and was devastated. And then I was hopeful right at the very end. One of the best novelizations of a film, period. ( ) 1shaunbarcalow | Oct 4, 2009 | Does it even need repeating? Matthew Stover's book is far superior to George Lucas' film. In fact, it's the best Star Wars novel yet written. Disparage Lucas' writing and directing all you want, but the man has still concocted a great tragic story, brought to life with stunning style by Stover. If Stover's Shatterpoint is the franchise's darkest book, his Traitor the deepest, and Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor the most fun, then this novelization is easily the most stylish. What was a so-so movie in Lucas' hands proves to be a gripping, moving book in Stover's. If you read only one Star Wars book in your life, make it this one. ( ) 1saltmanz | Jun 3, 2009 | A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...... there was a casting director who made a very bad choice. Some say that Hayden Christensen ruined the second two prequels of the Star Wars saga with his whining disposition and poor portrayal of the man who would one day be one of the greatest villains in the history of American cinema. And they might be right. For those that love the franchise and the story, but perhaps disliked the actors, this is the book to read. Matthew Stover did an amazing job of not making this just another novelization of a movie. His intricate detail of fight sequences, landscape and scenery descriptions, and witty dialogue make this a book to spark the interest of any science fiction fan. But it is his characterization that will truly appeal to those devout lovers of Star Wars lore. Stover begins every chapter with a thought-provoking quote, this alone endears him to my heart. Better still, he stops the action at momentous occasions to tell you exactly what it is like to be that character at that moment in time. This is more than an omniscient narrator detailing characters' inner thoughts; this is an examination of a character to the point where even I cried for Darth Vader at the end. This is not a book to pass by on the bookstore shelves and sneer because you may or may not have liked the film. I promise you that you will hear the brilliant strains of John Williams music as Owen and Beru Lars watch a Tattooine sunset holding baby Luke Skywalker in their arms. I did. And I cried, again. 2Ilithyia | Dec 19, 2008 | Probably the best of the Star Wars prequels. The book (and movie) emphasize Anakin's emotional turmiol and his relationship with Padme and Obi-Wan. A great book. ( ) 06nwingert | Dec 7, 2008 | 2005 REVIEW: Having been disappointed with movie, I read the book much like I did with The Phantom Menace and was pleased with the result. The book is much better. Lacking CGI effects to distract Stover delves into the thoughts, motivations, and interactions of the characters, and in fact this book - unlike the movie it's based on - is very character driven. Stover makes the villainous Count Dooko and General Grievous interesting by actually telling about them and making them more than just props for the good guys to duel with and kill. In fact, the opening scenes with the rescue of Chancellor Palpatine are told from Dooku's point of view and make his eventual betrayal all the more powerful. The book goes where the movie fears to go delving into the politics of the crumbling Republic and the seduction of Anakin to the Dark Side by Palpatine in a series of conversations. Padme gets a part to play too as she is involved with other eventual Rebel leaders in opposing Palpatine's control over the Senate. Unfortunately, Stover can't veer away entirely from the movie and Padme still dies pathetically in childbirth acting the part of an abused wife. 2020 REVIEW: Continuing reading Star Wars novelizations with my daughter, we come to one of the best novels drawn from a rather mediocre movie. Stover has a highly literary style and inserts into scenes from the film the thoughts of the characters and has them remembering key moments in flashback. The book is very character-driven and features frequent changes in point of view. Villains like Count Dooku and General Grievous are interesting and even scary in ways that they aren't in the movie. There are also many revealing conversations. While it makes for an engaging novel with great storytelling, I should note that it would translate into a far too long and dialogue-heavy movie. (I still contend in hindsight that the prequels would be vastly improved by ditching The Phantom Menace and developing the plot and character points of Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith over three films). ( ) 1Othemts | Jun 25, 2008 | I read the script to Revenge of the Sith before the novelization, and was disappointed, to say the least. Fortunately, the same didn't happen with the novel. Stover cut what needed to be cut, rewrote what needed to be rewrote, and overall made a spun of gold out of the straw script. ( ) 1ATimson | Feb 11, 2008 | I really enjoyed it. It explained so many things from the movie and filled in some of the story that must have been cut out or not included in the screenplay, but definitely help make things make sense! The little character bios are nice too. The whole clone war has always been a bit confusing to me and it all makes so much more sense in this book. Yes, I knew it was all a plot by Palpatine, but the way it played out was always a bit confusing. The fact that it is all just a Jedi trap really ties it all together. I am not a big Science Fiction fan. Ok, I am not a Science Fiction fan at all (much to dh's disappointment). Star Wars is the only SciFi that I like, and that is because I finally got into the human element of it. The story that drives it, I got connected with the characters and wanted to know their stories. Which is why I love the books as they really let you delve more into the characters and their thoughts and motivations than the movies allow. The dialog was also a lot less cheesy in the book! I find it amazing that, though Lucas supposedly did not pattern this after any particular religion, it works as an allegory to the Christian faith. There are so many parallels. The whole Light and Dark, Jedi v Sith gives much to think about. nyisutter | Jan 9, 2008 | Showing 1-25 of 29 (next | show all) |
