William Shakespeare's The Empire Striketh Back by Ian DoescherMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is just as hard to review as the first book, just not as good. Maybe some of the originality wore off, I don't know. One thing I do know is that changing Yoda's speech patterns, which are already at least semi-Shakespearean, to nothing but haikus, is just brilliant. As I said about the original, I would love to see this performed sometime, and someone really should get on that. Now.

And that's my one hundredth book review on the blog. It only took three years... trust me, I read a lot more books in three years than that, I just slacked on the blogging for the first year or so. Anyway, this marks the first of my blog categories to reach one hundred posts, and it's kind of exciting. To me, anyway. I wonder what will break the milestone next? Time will tell. But in the meantime...
More books!
