About this listen

Celebrate the greatest saga ever told: All of us who are deeply influenced by the epic saga of Star Wars have our favorite moments. Each time the screen goes black and you see those words - "a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away" - the music blasts through you, and you're a kid again. Ken Napzok, expert appreciator of Star Wars, counts down each one of those special moments that makes this series not just the best movies of all time, but the greatest saga ever told.

Become a scholar of Star Wars: What began as one movie about good people, evil oppressors, and the space wizards that stood between them has exploded into a franchise. The moments that continue to inspire are on screen and in the pages of novels. They are found in the panels of comic books and among animated sequences on television. And they all continue to grow in stature, importance, and myth through discussions, debates, and daydreams.

Why We Love Star Wars: The Great Moments That Built a Galaxy Far, Far Away is the ultimate gift for the film buff who has binged all 1001 Movies to See Before You Die and the super-fan who covets Star Wars: The Visual Encyclopedia and Star Wars: Complete Locations.

This truly is why we love star wars. From prequelist to sequelist, fans will love this and identify with alot of what the "pit boss" states. I found myself agreeing with the majority (not all) of what he delivered as a personal account of what he deems are the reasons that the magic that makes star wars bind us together as fans. Love it!!

A great personal account.

Ken Napzok is a true fan of Star Wars. He's a geek, knows all the names and planets in SW Universe and has read and seen every book, comic and magazine, seen every film and show and yet he knows what it really means to love the franchise. He knows that we don't have to love everything about the Star Wars to love Star Wars. He let's us know that its OK to not like something in the franchise, because that's the beauty of Star Wars.
It's also OK to still feel little a child again and get excited over space battles, lightsaber duels or have a tear when when one of you favourite characters is killed.
Thanks Ken, you have made me realise why I truly love this epic saga, in fact because of you, I love it even more.
May the Force be with you

Ken reminds us why we really love this epic saga

Having always loved Star Wars myself, it was just a joy to listen to this. Always fun to be reminded of all these great scenes, pieces of music and d characters, but this was also presented in a really funny and engaging way, Just great.

What a joyful listen
