William Shakespeare's The Empire Striketh Back by Ian Doescher (2014) 5★♥ (William Shakespeare's Star Wars: Book 2) Another good one. Focused a bit more on Han and Leia's romance. Loved Yoda! He speaks in Haiku! The first parody book was a little better I thought. But I still enjoyed book 2. It went more into the romance of Han and Leia. And there was a lot more longer monologues (aside dialogue too). It's fun and short. Favorite quotes: Act II: scene 7 Yoda: "O, great warrior! A great warrior you seek? Wars not make one great. But soft, no more of Talking, for my appetite Dinner demandeth." Act V: scene 7 Luke: "Encounters unexpected we did meet With masters wise and persons unforeseen. These are the star wars, yet they are not done— For sure, the final chapter’s just begun."
