He actually wrote at least eight. Cannoli Send a noteboard - 12/09/2011 07:33:28 PM
The first of his latter duology being the only one I found boring. The rest I quite enjoyed, though I was much younger when I read the first trilogy. Matthew Stover is my favourite Star Wars writer though. Zhan would be second. I also enjoyed Greg Keyes' entries, and the X-Wing books, and the Corellian trilogy.


In addition to the five Thrawn books, Zahn also wrote the story of the (Outbound Flight? Outward Bound? ) expedition he referenced in the Thrawn books, which held the real Jorus C'Baoth and which was destroyed by Thrawn, as well as a sequel wherein Luke & Mara Jade accompany a salvage expedition to recover the wreck of that ship. There was also a prequel which took place between the first two movies, and featured the real characters as well as Mara.

point 4 of the "bad things about the original movies" is kind of weak LadyLorraine - 24/08/2011 01:07:01 AM 909 Views
They'll have to refer to these notes when they remake all of them in 10 years HousealThor - 24/08/2011 04:31:39 AM 1004 Views

I like that take. *NM* Nate - 24/08/2011 05:18:21 PM 500 Views
That's kind of how I saw it. *NM* Gher - 24/08/2011 11:00:32 PM 559 Views
Also, it makes the military guys feel better if they see the chain of command at work. Cannoli - 25/08/2011 01:53:02 AM 1100 Views
On that last statement... LadyLorraine - 25/08/2011 09:27:01 AM 943 Views
Yeah, I've seen that theory before imlad - 25/08/2011 02:27:29 PM 953 Views
Yes Cannoli - 25/08/2011 07:31:25 PM 943 Views
Nice theories *NM* Sidious - 26/08/2011 08:26:20 AM 1090 Views
Good stuff. And there are many more. I like the PT better than the OT. Kotagg - 24/08/2011 07:48:19 PM 944 Views
I don't want to alarm you, but you might be a monster. Nate - 24/08/2011 07:54:17 PM 897 Views
Most people I know under age 22 or so prefer the PT. *NM* ironclad - 24/08/2011 09:07:10 PM 513 Views
So the real question is ... Nate - 24/08/2011 09:19:51 PM 1017 Views
I'm 26, but it's pretty close. Kotagg - 24/08/2011 11:46:39 PM 933 Views

LOL I don't like Whedon either, and hate Firefly. My nerd friends do not love me. *NM* Kotagg - 25/08/2011 01:37:51 AM 396 Views
I'm 38, and I do love the PT imlad - 25/08/2011 12:45:11 AM 889 Views
I agreed with so much of what you said, then I cried. Kotagg - 25/08/2011 01:39:45 AM 1053 Views

Ugh Zahn was so boring. *NM* Kotagg - 25/08/2011 04:00:28 AM 497 Views
Four of his five books are among my favourite Star Wars entries. Nate - 26/08/2011 01:42:29 PM 904 Views
I, too, loved the Thrawn trilogy *NM* ironclad - 26/08/2011 02:15:18 PM 448 Views

I'm not even going there. Nate - 24/08/2011 09:26:11 PM 981 Views
my biggest complaint about the prequels is imlad - 25/08/2011 12:48:13 AM 866 Views
I mostly agree Cannoli - 25/08/2011 01:37:28 AM 1044 Views
I tend to consider the prequels to be inferior Sidious - 26/08/2011 08:41:46 AM 1179 Views
I still think that James Franco would have been awesome as Anakin ironclad - 26/08/2011 09:05:48 AM 1063 Views
I'd never really thought about it before, but I agree! *NM* LadyLorraine - 26/08/2011 02:22:00 PM 554 Views
I'd have to agree as well *NM* imlad - 28/08/2011 12:01:18 AM 540 Views
I've said that before. And they look almost exactly the same. *NM* Gher - 28/08/2011 12:26:29 AM 656 Views
except, imo, Franco looks like a MAN *NM* LadyLorraine - 28/08/2011 08:01:03 AM 600 Views

It's the Force, stupid. Cannoli - 25/08/2011 02:46:38 AM 1325 Views
Woah, woah. Nate - 25/08/2011 03:26:02 AM 931 Views
Yeah Cannoli has trouble letting petty things like reading get in the way of his nerdrage. *NM* Kotagg - 25/08/2011 04:03:56 AM 548 Views
You realize if I'd actually sucumbed to nerdrage, he wouldn't have complained? Cannoli - 25/08/2011 07:41:50 PM 892 Views
Whose panties are in a bunch? It's all in good fun anyway *NM* Kotagg - 26/08/2011 04:24:46 AM 513 Views

Probably because the bad guys were analogues of the OTHER Axis powers. Cannoli - 26/08/2011 06:11:07 PM 899 Views
The one thing about the PT that I could never get over is..... trzaska2000 - 26/08/2011 05:24:12 AM 1199 Views
That issue is over four hundred years old. Cannoli - 26/08/2011 06:09:37 PM 1015 Views
