Read, You Must: The Rise and Fall of Darth Vader by Ryder Windham
Interested in getting into Star Wars young reader novels? Ryder Windham's 2007 The Rise and Fall of Darth Vader is a fantastic place to start. Most of it will be familiar if you've only seen the movies, but you may enjoy that it connects to many other stories and books from the Star Wars Universe.
Even though the title doesn't appear on the front for some reason - perhaps because the artwork is just too beautiful to cover up - the book very much lives up to its title. The Rise and Fall of Darth Vader tells Anakin Skywalker's life story and covers all six Star Wars films. It is a novel for young readers but doesn't shy away from the horrible deeds of Darth Vader. I would recommend even adult fans read this one too.
