The Tiny Book of Jedi by S. T. Bende

The Tiny Book of Jedi by S. T. Bende

Like The Tiny Book of Sith, this book boasted a super comprehensive curation of quotes and illustrations from all over Star Wars canon--books, comics, video games, TV shows, and movies. Most were well chosen and I have to give Bende kudos for managing to find at least one quote for nearly every Jedi (from Kit Fisto to Oppo Rancisis!). It was odd though when quotes from non-Force sensitive people popped up like Han, Lando, and Rose. They all had very light side sentiments but the inclusion just felt wrong.

The book itself is the same size as the Sith book, making it nearly microscopic and yet oh so incredibly cute. It comes complete with a cardboard sleeve and a ribbon bookmark! Such a precious concept.



The book is divided into the following 4 sections: "The Jedi Path," "The Jedi Order," "Jedi Weapons and Artifacts," "Jedi and Light Side Wisdom." The last section is the longest and the most focused, displaying all number of characters throughout canon. The other three seemed a bit haphazard in their quote inclusions and I couldn't really get a feel for the book's intended flow.

Despite the few negatives, this novelty is absolutely worth owning, especially if you already have The Tiny Book of Sith. It doesn't take up much space, it's affordable, and it's a fountain of awesome quotes!
