Wow, this one looks like a beauty! I think this is gonna be one of those real must-haves as far as Star Wars reference books go. Almost a coffee table type of book, it seems. Beautiful cover too. It sounds like it's going to be a giant compendium of all of DK's previous books: Incredible Cross-Sections, Inside the Worlds of... and Visual Dictionary, for the entire Saga. Wonder what it's gonna cost... I'm guessing at least $50, probably more.
From the Official Site (http://www.starwars.com/eu/lit/ref/news20050620.html):
This Fall, the time is right for Star Wars: The Ultimate Visual Guide, written by saga expert Ryder Windham. The entire Star Wars experience is explored -- from the films, expanded universe, behind-the-scenes, collecting, Star Wars fandom, and more. It's the perfect introduction for new fans and an invaluable addition to every fan's collection. Here's a preview of some of the spreads in the book, which is due out in October.
