I never really liked NJO or the other major SW series..... Anonymous2000 Send a noteboard - 19/05/2013 04:09:56 AM

At the end of the day, you knew nothing was really going to happen. At most you would have a few non-movie deaths, but who cares.


View original postStover's Revenge of the Sith novelization s much better than the film and is good read before Rise of Darth Vader and after Labyrinth of Evil. They serve as an effective repair trilogy to the film.

I definitely agree with these recommendations. The novelizations of all 3 prequels are much, much better than the films. Also, Rise of DV was very good. It helped to cement what Lucas always said about Vader.....is was a hurt/broken shell of his former self, not an all-powerful super Jedi.


View original postAnd of course the Thrawn Trilogy, sort of a must read for any post-movies Star Wars Expanded Universe stuff.

Haven't read this in years.....perhaps it is time for a re-read!

Stover is a vastly superior writer to Brooks and Salvatore. Werthead - 19/05/2013 12:03:22 PM 850 Views

Please refresh my memory on Traitor.....why did you like it so much? Anonymous2000 - 19/05/2013 02:27:23 PM 951 Views
Yes, it's that book. And for what it's worth, I think the NJO is the best thing to happen to SW. *NM* Kotagg - 20/05/2013 08:13:10 PM 463 Views
The journey was good, but the ending completely blew (which tainted much of NJO). *NM* Anonymous2000 - 20/05/2013 08:31:08 PM 464 Views

I actually thought Stackpole's work in SW was fairly weak for him Isaac - 21/05/2013 04:06:46 AM 798 Views
