Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith is a novelization of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith written by Matthew Stover and published on April 2, 2005 by Del Rey Books.

There are several elements added not seen in the film (Lorth Needa as commander of the Integrity at the Battle of Coruscant, for example), while several sections of the plot are removed for pacing. All of the deleted scenes with the founders of the Rebel Alliance are included. The Star Wars series' Expanded Universe is also referenced; Asajj Ventress, a character from the Star Wars: Clone Wars microseries and Star Wars: Republic comic book series, is mentioned on more than one occasion in the novel.
