This book and "The Teens That Time Forgot" are the hardcover book "Dinoverse", but split into two and dumbed down a little. There are a lot of minor changes in the text and dialogue, most of them pointless.
Personally, I prefer "Dinoverse". When I tried to order it off Amazon, I got this book.

This is one of my favorite Star Wars books.
For full appreciation it helps if you've read two of Stover's other SW books, Shatterpoint and the Revenge of the Sith novelization. LSatSoM scatters references and callbacks to those throughout this book, and you get a good sense of how Luke is like, and not like, Mace Windu and Anakin Skywalker.
This is a pretty dark book, just like either of those. Bad things happen to a lot of characters. It's darkly funny, and tragic, and suspenseful and smart and sad and scary in places. But all the same, there's a sense of hope in the end, an energy, that makes it worthwhile to me.
This book isn't for everyone. But it's just about perfect for me.
