But my sister finally found one today on eBay. Here's a Japanese version of Tatooine Ghost. I may buy it, may not. What I'm really interested in are the NJO books, but hopefully will find those one day. Tatooine Ghost - Japanese Also found some other languages, too: Star Wars: A New Hope - Romanian X-Wing: The Krytos Trap - Polish Planet of Twilight - German Attack of the Clones - Italian _________________ "It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker

Also, is it just me, or is anyone else getting the National Geographic vibe from that cover? Kind of funny, the title is literally translated "Wars Star." That happens with a lot of the words though.

Hey, yeah...if you check out the seller's other stuff, they've got some more Star Wars Romanian books as well. 3 or 4, if I remember correctly. And I dunno...I guess Wars Star makes sense if you just flipped them around. Where War Stars is completely mixed up. *shrugs* _________________ "It's not about the legacy you leave, it's about the life you live." ~Mara Jade Skywalker
