Star Wars The Truce at Bakura

Ok, I chose this title because I don't read much science fiction and thought it would be a good place to start since I grew up on the original Star Wars trilogy movies. Let's just say that it was difficult to visualize at first the lengthy descriptions of aliens, fighter planes and other worlds. However, drawing on my experiences from the movies I used to watch, I eventually caught up in my mind with what the words on the page were saying. It turned out to be a great story, more of an adventure than science fiction I'd say (other lifeforms and traveling at light speed not withstanding). I ended up liking the book!
