Also, while I'm being mildly contrarian, has anyone else noticed that—if the novelization is actually a reasonably close representation of the plot of the film, which I admit is never a sure bet—this is the same story as the original Star Wars? It's not an exact copy, like that bizarre shot-for-shot remake of Psycho that came out a few years ago, but all the set pieces are there, just rearranged a little. It's basically Star Wars if the Vader-Kenobi duel had somehow managed to take place during the Battle of Yavin.
