| Re: Um... Reader of the Books?
When I was younger, I had bought a lot of paperbacks that I had never gotten around to reading (Jedi Academy trilogy, Darksaber, Children of the Jedi, The New Rebellion etc.). I've been going through them at the moment, I might as well read them, they have been lying around for a while :P. I'd like to see how things have been going beyond the NJO (read them up to just before Star by Star).
The EU is a mixed bag. There are those who prefer the work of Tim Zahn or the more optimistic products of KJ Anderson, but at the moment (or so) the favourite appears to be Matt Stover (haven't gotten up to reading his work yet).
Starwars books are an old standby for me. Whenever I have nothing else to read (or no money to purchase :P) I can always fall back on where I left off, somewhere in the timeline.
I'm up to the Crystal Star at the moment in my mouldy unread pile, and it sure does, well, suck! ;( The style is stagnant and the plot is more star trek than star wars :P |
