ReviewChowbasa! (Huttese for "Welcome!") This is the authoritative guide to Stars Wars languages from the man who created them. It is not your usual conlinguistic fare, as Ben Burtt is a sound designer not a linguist, but it is a light, enjoyable read. Half the book covers the techniques Burtt used to generate the sounds and half the book is written for the "galactic traveler" within the Star Wars universe. An anonymous reviewer writes in, "Excellent, but could be expanded."
