Beskrivning
A history of the dark times"So this is how liberty dies—with thunderous applause."-Senator Padmé AmidalaWhen Palpatine declared the birth of his new Empire, he expected it would stand for millennia. Instead, it lasted only 24 years. This is the story of how a tyrannical regime rose from the ashes of democracy, ruled the galaxy with an iron fist, and then collapsed into dust.It is a story of war and heroes, of the power of propaganda and the dangers of complacency. But most of all, it is a story of normal people trying to live their lives in the face of a brutal dictatorship.From the ruthlessness of Darth Vader's campaigns to the horrors of the Tarkin Initiative, this book offers fresh new insights into the dark entity at the core of Star Wars.© AND ™ 2024 LUCASFILM LTD.

Recensioner i media

“Star Wars The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire is complex, thoughtful, at times funny, and always exceedingly nerdy. It brilliantly tells a cohesive history of all the major eras of Star Wars that not only engages readers in the galaxy far, far away, but also offers useful insight into the political challenges we often face in the real world.”
