Summary: Great start to the series.
Comment: I read this book about a year ago, but I still remember it very well. Because the series (Young Jedi Knights) was all about Jacen and Jaina Solo, they were the first books to really develop their characters. Jaina is spunky and adventurous and has a real talent for mechanical stuff and for flying. Jacen's talent is communicating through the force with animals, and he keeps a collection of them in his room. In this book, when the series stars off, the twins are fourteen years old and have left their home on Coruscant to attend Luke's Jedi academy on the fourth moon of Yavin. The plot involved the two adjusting to life at the academy and making some new friends, including Tenal Ka, a warrior girl, and Lowie, a Wookie who is Chewie's nephew. Jaina's father, Han Solo, gives her a hyperdrive to toy around with, because she loves mechanical thigns so much. She finds the wreckage of a TIE fighter from the battle of Yavin when the first Death Star was destroyed. So she'll have her own ship with hyperspace capabilities, she decides to install the hyperdrive in the fighter. That's where the trouble starts. It turns out that the pilot of the ship has been hiding in the jungle for twenty years. He doesn't know that the Empire has fallen, and when he learns his ship has been repaired, he decides to steal it and return to his command. And he doesn't care if he gets the kids hurt or killed in the process. What I liked best about this book was that it was a Star Wars story in which the main characters were my age. You don't have to be a kid or teenager to enjoy the book, though. I think all Star Wars fans will find it entertaining if they don't mind the simpler writing style.

Summary: The Young Jedi Knights series are great!
Comment: This is the first book in the "Young Jedi Knights" series. This book wasn't as fun as the others, but I still liked it alot.
Jacen and Jaina are twins of Han Solo and Princess Leia. They are training to become Jedi Knights at their Uncle Luke's Jedi academy on Yavin 4. Jaina takes after her father: She is loves to tinker with mechanical stuff.
Jacen has a special talent of speaking to animals,insects,or plants by using the Force.They have lots of adventures together with their friend Lowie or Lowbacca, who is a Wookie computer whiz, and Tenel Ka, who is a tough warrior from the planet Dathomir. (Tenel Ka is my favorite character!)
In "Heirs of the Force", the friends, while exploring the jungle outside the academy, discover a TIE fighter that had crashed years ago during the battle against the first Death Star. Jaina thinks she can repair it with her friends.
Unknown to them, the pilot of the TIE fighter is still alive in the jungle. He has been waiting to 'return to duty' for the Empire, he does not know that the Empire had been destroyed. The Imperial trooper captures the twins and forces them to continue repairing his ship.
Will the twins be able to get away? What will happen if Qorl attacks the Jedi academy?
If you liked this book, I'm sure you'll love other books of this series!
