Inside the Worlds of Star Wars: Episode I

Go behind the scenes of every incredible location from Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace with this amazing new addition to DK's popular Star Wars series. Look deep into the structures, follow the paths of the characters, and discover all the details about the planets and settings of the film. To create this comprehensive guide, the DK team was granted access to the original blueprints, scale models, and drawings for Episode I stored at Skywalker Ranch, the headquarters of Lucasfilm in California. Close collaboration with Lucasfilm insiders ensured complete accuracy and authority. With the inclusion of many previously unreleased stills from the movie, illustrated maps, and Kristin Lund's comprehensive and detailed writing, this book stands alone as the only reference material to give Star Wars enthusiasts all the background information on the locations and places of Episode I.

Several elements presented within this book have since been contradicted by other sources.

• It is mentioned that the planet Naboo possesses only one moon, despite actually having three.
• Tatooine is stated as having two moons, rather than the correct number of three.
• The book claims that Coruscant was home to three original cultures that engaged in warfare with each other, when in reality it was solely the Zhell and the Taung.
• In the section covering the Mos Espa Circuit, it's indicated that Anakin's Podracer engines experienced overheating during the final lap of the race at Jett's Chute; however, this event visibly takes place at Arch Canyon in the movie.
• Certain parts of the coverage regarding the Droid Control Ship incorrectly suggest that it was the Saak'ak, instead of the actual vessel, the Vuutun Palaa.
