I really liked this piece. Boba Fett is a very hard mind frame to capture, and you did a great job doing it! I really appreciate works like these, works that explain scenes that fans know little of. Nice work, and a quality story. Certainly worth of the TF.N archives!

I loved the thinking back to his father's instructions. He's more than just a mindless being, which makes him more effective as a bounty hunter. Great job.

Great story. Liked it better than the official one. The fact that Boba escapes rather quickly after falling in shows how resourceful he is and why he is the greatest bounty hunter.

Very good. I think it would have been a bit better if the actual escape was more descriptive- it was so short and quick.

Liked it much. There is more to Fett than a mindless killer. There is survival instints and warm thoughts of his childhood. In his mind, he was always doing the right thing.

Excellent story, it read like a Lucas version. The story created a visual picture in my mind that allowed me to get into the pit of the sarlacc with Boba Fett. It stayed true to the Fett character both Jango & Boab. When is the next chapter...where he searches out the Jedi?

I did not enjoy this piece... The only bright spot was that of Boba thinking about Jango, and that was added for the sake of the new movies..come on, give us something good and original, not someone else' work.

This was fun! The first fanfic I read completely. Short, but sweet and to the point. Don't know if it was cus of the film but with an exeption of the latter half inside the Sarlaac it was very easy and fun to visualize. Good use of the "thousand years" note to form a theory. Loved it.

I really enjoyed this piece. It left a very visual image of the sarlaac's insides, and it also gave a great ending to what was a originally less than perfect. Also made a good save on the whole "thousand year" thing.

LOved it but i kind a miss the ending with Dengar.... But in a another way. If I read this before the Offical I would think the Dangar part would be dumb.
And that you used storryes from his childhood showed that he is not a thing but a human after all was a good twist man. BUT Jango is coller then Boba.

Hello, glad to see that most people like the tale.

I would just like to respond to the accusation of ripping off other writers.

Before I wrote this I hadn't read any EU stuff except some of the Dark Empire comics and the first of the Thrawn trilogy.

One of the betas kindly gave me a copy of "A Barve Like That" which I read and enjoyed. However, I think there are many differences between that story and my version. (Haven't read the Mandalorian Armour so I can't comment on that piece of fiction.)

I realise that "Boba escaping from the Sarlacc" is not an original thought, but I like to think that my story had an original take on the idea.

I welcome all comments and opinions on the story, but I don't respond well to accusations of stealing other people's work.

On a lighter note, I would also like to thank the artist (whoever he/she is) for doing such a splendid job on the cover.

He great story!

I have been wondering about the intestines of the Sarlacc for quite a while. I liked your story quite a lot, even though it doesn't actually fit into what happens officially.

What I missed was more communication with the Sarlacc and victims other then Fett. You nailed Boba Fett though, and his throwing a granade in the Sarlacc's maw for the mercy of the other victims is touching and moving.

Keep 'em coming!

Rido,
thanks for the comments on the cover, and your welcome I had a great time designing it. But it was your story that inspired the cover. I liked the way you brought Jango's lessons into play. And the way you explained being digested over a thousand years. Eventhough in the Triolgy they leave Boba's fate up in the air.. you know he was just to good to let the sarlaac get the best of him.
Great Job

Mark

Not to beat a dead horse, but this story has very little to add to the situation. It is not bad, don't misunderstand, I just think you could read the bounty hunter wars and re-form it around that or change it completely to make it a true a.u. The intent was to illustrate Boba's thoughts inside the sarlacc pit, and although your story ties in Jengo to that situation, is doesn't illuminate any more than Bounty Hunter Wars already did. BHW also illustrated the 1000 years digestion and describes how the sarlacc and others of its kind got to Tattione and spread throughout the universe. Again, applause on the effort, but either go with a full a.u. or build on the story. I am in fact most interested with Boba after the Bounty Hunter Wars, he just gets left out for the most part. He should of been a reluctant leader rebuilding the mandalorians and conquering the galaxy in some fashion .Now thats some stuff that needs to be written=)
(sorry it is so blunt, but more power to you! Looking forward to other stories=)

I like the subject and depiction of Boba. Remembering all of his dad's sayings reminds you that he is a clone but also shows that he isn't mindless. His quick-thinkning and suit capabilities were also shown very well and it was cool way for him to get out. I also like the way he showed some emotion, while he never shows any in the movies or books, it was cool to get inside his head.

O.K... not the best fanfic I ever read. Good ideas, but they should have been more elaborate and added more detail to the fanfic. Too short, too sweet. If ideas were built upon a whole lot more, it would have added more to the plot. The only bright spot to the story was Boba recalling his father's advice to get him out of the sarlacc. Not bad ideas, but the story could have been a lot better.

I wanted to respond to one of your earlier comments about your story, rido jod. Don't worry, you don't sound like a rambling madman. I would be annoied also. I wanted to compliment you on a great story! I realize that you said you hadn't read much expanded universe when you thought of the idea. Though you didn't add some of the facts about Boba's escape from the published version, you did an awsome job of capturing his thoughts. The way you wrote it, it perfectly matches the young Boba Fett series. If you haven't read it,I reccomend it! Keep up the good work!

well it was an interesting piece but if you read the three book series of the Bounty Hunter Wars
esspecially book 1 The Mandalorian Armor, in the beginning the book shows that Dengar finds Boba Fett lying on the dune sea near death only recognizable by his T-shaped visor of his helmet. I strongly reccommend any Boba Fett fan to read that series it takes place during the events of Return of the Jedi, and explains his rivalry with fellow bounty hunters like Bossk and Zuckuss Book 1 is titled The Mandalorian Armor, Book 2 is titled Slave Ship, and Book 3 is titled Hard Merchandise.

An interesting take on Boba's escape from the Sarlacc. I felt you kept in the character of Boba and you showed what he would have been going through inside the belly of that thing. I also enjoyed the fact that you included a plot for revenge on Solo and his pals, nice ending touch, this is a solid short story.

I enjoyed reading this story so much! It was just the right length for the scene and engaged the reader right off the bat. Clever use of the character background for the escape, and you stayed true to the Boba Fett in the movies, something which I was worried about when I first starting reading this. Great job!
