Nice! I like it!

I loved this story. I have always been fascinated by the Tuskens too, and I really enjoyed seeing how this version of Star Wars was different, yet similar, to the canon story. I really believe in multiverses (at least in the fanfic world) and to my mind, this is what actually happened to the Skywalkers, in a parallel universe. You write the characters so dead-on. I loved the confrontation on Tattooine, so the whole story comes full circle, and the themes of family ties and redemption come through so nicely. My favorite parts were both of the 'I am your father' scenes. They were done really well. Leia's reaction was so much like canon-Luke's, while Luke gets his revelation in the middle of a battle and the Emperor is egging him on to kill his own father at the same time. I just really enjoyed it.
Good work!

Awesome story. Thank you for posting.

If this was Vader from the current canon, that party would be dead.

Tuskens catching Darth Vader? Um... don't think that's gonna work too well.

Awesome story. Liked how the characters developed and how plot holes were avoided.
Thanks for sharing.

I really enjoyed this one... staid up 24 hours just to make sure I read it all

Unique story and wonderfully written!
I love it!

And youre interested in transformers! Im gonna go check out your other fics, thankyou for writing this one!

This was awesome! I'm not much of a fan of Star Wars myself, but my parents are, so an interest in it pops up from time to time. I'm glad I read this story because has really been a fun read. I enjoyed watching Skywalker's struggles with tackling human culture and seeing the world from his eyes. I liked how you wrote Vader. It was interesting to see a fatherly protective side to him. But I thought of something while reading this... Why in the movie did Vader not sense Leia was his daughter? He didn't know until the end, when they were both with the Emperor. Anyway, I really really enjoyed reading this.

Cash is out. Peace!

It's quite difficult for me to think nicely of Tusken Raiders. The only thing I have heard of them, they kidnapped Shmi Skywalker, and led to her death.
Let Serpents be destroyed in attack upon Vader, but I wish not for Redrock tribe to suffer.
Darn. Sky-Walker as Son of the Suns, and Leia as sacrifice? Glad that it didn't happen. Wise Stone-Shadow is.
Ouch. Serpents overwhelmed Darth Vader...
Let's hope Han Solo is smart enough to notice the tail. Yes, he did.
Sky-walker heard the prophecy. He doesn't have to destroy the Black One - only to defeat him; but it would be nice to kill the master, the Emperor - since I don't believe anything (animate or inanimate, dead, alive, or undead) can hold him (well, maybe Count Dracula could, but it would consume all of his attention, and he would be vulnerable to an attack by somebody else, say, Sidious's worshiper).
And meanwhile, joining Darth Vader is an option... As long as it doesn't hinder destruction of the Emperor.
Sidious is woefully under-informed, but he probably already knows that Luke isn't on Tatooine. At least, he adapted surprisingly well to the situation.
Let's hope that Palpatine doesn't aid Sons of the Suns in destroying Daughters of the Moons (Palpatine did this). Let's hope that Sidious will not attack them for how they interacted with Vader (he didn't attack all Tuskens, but he used his knowledge as leverage). Let's hope the Emperor will not learn where the Sky-Walker is, or what prophecy was spoken (apparently, he didn't care to go into details, and didn't hear of the prophecy; nice!).
You cannot stand by my side as my daughter without joining the Empire. It will only mean your death. So Vader is sure that even with Leia at his side, he wouldn't be able to take down Sidious?
Wind-Dancer... I do hope that Vader will not stop just because his enemy is Palpatine. Vader is still indebted to Wind-Dancer, Daughters of the Moons, and the Redrock tribe.
Sky-walker defeating Vader I can easily see, if Sky-Walker pretends to be a Red Guard, and Vader attacks Palpatine. Ah, Palpatine isn't blind to Sky-walker's presence, but this scenario still unfolds.
Weed aka Star-Killer... Lol! Nice tribute.
Anakin Skywalker... Darth Vader... I hope that you shall heal, and become a black dragon who can direct his attacks within limits of self-defense (and defense of others). And with time learn to be a human, again - with family, happiness, joy and sadness, and walking forward to better future.
Thank you. Good day, good night, and good luck.

This was one of the most unique and enjoyable stories I've read. I'm looking forward to reading your other works.

SKYWALKER. Okay, that's a tremendous way to bring in his name. Fantastic.

This is a great story. I loved the AU aspect of having Luke have a different upbringing than in canon, and how much it affected the entire saga of Star Wars. It's really refreshing to see how one's childhood and upbringing can change a character so much. Luke here feels more...confident? Assured? But also more naïve in some ways, and less cocky in others. He's also much more community-oriented than in canon, when he was a wild, independent son of a moisture farmer. It's almost like seeing the difference between a son of a Native American tribe and the son of a Wild West farmsteader.

I also loved how you how you created the entire culture of the Tusken Raiders. It makes them feel much more alive than they were in the films, when they were just howling barbarians yelling in triumph after a victory. I really wish your version of the Tuskens was canon. I really also wish for canon Luke to somehow meet Wind-Dancer, just to see what would happen. :)

It's too bad that there's no sequel to this, but it was an excellent story nonetheless. May the Force be with you in your writing. Always.

Wonderful story! At first, I'll admit, I was a little apprehensive, but you did a really good job taking the story and making it your own unique tale, rather than a slight rewrite from the original plot. Great job! I'm now going to go look at your other stories to see if any others catch my interest.

This was a really good read. I really enjoyed the unique perspective Luke got by being raised differently, and the difference it made to the story. I saw that you crafted most if not all of the tusken culture, but I thought you might be interested to know that it is touched on more thoroughly than anywhere else, at least that I know of in legends, in the Knights of the Old Republic game. A summary should be easily found on wookiepedia. I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this already as I really don't have the patience to read through over 500 reviews to check, so I thought I'd mention it to be sure. Anyway, I'm really fond of how thorough you are with the world building/changing in this story and will be checking out some of your other works. I hope you return to Star Wars fanfiction should the right idea strike, you too.
