Even though this item reflects the old expanded universe of Star Wars - which is now defunct - it might still be in use by the 'Powers-That-Be' at Disney. Remember when Disney bought Lucasfilm they decided to reboot the SW universe - to get everybody back on the same page (so to speak). However since 2012 when Disney took over the SW universe it has been 'cherry-picking' elements from the old expanded universe of novels and comic books and putting them back into Disney-approved canon. (For one example the character of Thrawn has been brought into the Disney canon). So it might be this item is still in use by official sanctioned writers and producers. Perhaps someday Disney will approve a brand new version of this item that will be 100% canon. Meanwhile this item seems to be just valid enough for fan-fiction writers - like myself (note: I write SW fan-fiction in the format of screen play or teleplay scripts). This item provides star system names and hyperspace lane names that help to give my work a nicer level of detail. As a fan-fiction writer I try very hard to stick to Disney approved canon (so my SW characters, plots and other elements have the feel of being plausible in the Disney canon). If you are a fan-fiction writer or player of the table-top SW-RPG then this item will prove quite useful to your SW adventures! Read full review

this book is not a book for exactly gaming (role playing). but it you are looking for extra trade roughts, an inproved glatic maps, and refrence on a few planets this book would be the one I would suggest. I am using "The Essential Atlas" as a gaming refrence guide and my players now have more options on which routes they will take to navagate their way around the galaxy. it also provides more detail to the time line of the Star Wars galaxy. all in all a great book
This is a longwaited book. It places nearly all planet from every kind of star wars source (books, films, games, toys, comics...) on various historical and geographical maps. There is a full map of the galaxy, maps of every regions like Core, Inner Rim, Colonies, and some closer view of important sectors like Moddel (Endor), Hapan. What I most like in this book are the historical maps from every known era: anchient times, sith wars, rebellion, vong invasion, legacy. These maps show and tell new battles and campignes besides the most importants seen in other sources. The film-map about every film are a bit easy, but there was little else to say. Besides the maps the book contains texts about history, geography, politic and economy in the star wars galaxy. Definetly worth the money.
A MUST HAVE for any Star Wars fan !! highly recommended !!
