How to Speak Droid with R2-D2<br />

A Communication Manual • By Urma Droid • Illustrations by JAKe<br />

Following the success of How to Speak Wookiee comes this essential manual for interacting<br />

with droid units in various situations. Droids are made to be reliable, helpful, and<br />

daring, but they can be frustratingly stubborn. This convenient sound guide will help<br />

new droid users bypass that malfunction and utilise them to their full capacity. Featuring<br />

helpful scenarios—like convincing a droid to play back full messages, serve beverages<br />

and hors d’oeuvres at events, diagnose and repair mechanical issues on an X-wing, or<br />

just walk the dog—plus a sound module of 10 different droid phrases demonstrated by<br />

R2-D2, this handbook is a necessity for any new droid user.<br />

Urma Droid is an expert on human-droid relations,<br />

specialising in R2 character studies.<br />

from a young age. He speaks the Wookiee language fluently,<br />

but can communicate with an R2 unit enough to get his<br />

pencils sharpened.<br />
