Commander Obi-Wan Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter is the only Star Wars book I have read......so that would be #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master_Keralys Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I'd have to update my list at this point. The old one no longer holds true, sadly, though I still love all of those. Why? Why you ask? Because I read Republic Commando: Hard Contact. There's nothing quite like Karen Traviss. She's now in my top five... hard to say exactly where, or exactly what she bumps off, but she definitely does. - Keralys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 I don't read a lot about the EU, but my favourites are the three from the Thrawn Trilogy. Amazing books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Terros Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I just finished reading Star Wars: Labyrinth of Evil.....it was a pretty good book. Now watch ROTS and read Dark Lord - rise of darth vader that book is amazing i still dont understand why people rate Zahns stuff so much *i personally cant stand the bondish villian thrawn or mara jade in fact i hated them books with the cloned luke ubbish and such* when there are now far better writers doing starwars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 How was Thrawn "bondish"? Timothy Zahn is the best Star Wars writer since Geoge Lucas himself, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Source Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 My top five Star Wars Novels: 1. The Mandalorian Armor: #! of the Bounty Hunter Wars. 2. Hard Merchandise: #3 of the Bounty Hunter Wars 3. Vision of the Future: #2 of the Hand of Thrawn 4. Survivor's Quest 5. Shadows of the Empire Bounty Hunter Wars - is a three parter, which covers the insight into fighting Boba Fett. It is a great look at his enemies and their inner conflict. Hand of Thrawn Series - is a two parter, which covers a consipracy of a Thrawn. Survivor's Quest - is about Outbound Flight. However, this takes place 50 years after the event. Shadows of the Empire - is about events that took place between 'Empire Strikes Back' and 'Return of the Jedi'. It is a fun read... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintercell56 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 5.) Splinter Of the Minds Eye Luke tries to get it on with his own sister, Leia dies and gets resurrected through the force, Vader tries to kill his son, and they don’t even realize that their all one big happy family. 4.) Star Wars Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader -Its the rise of Darth Vader need I say more... 3.) Star Wars Rouge Squadron -Great series of novels that the main focus was not Jedi. 2.) The Thrawn Trilogy -Finally a deceiving mastermind villain who is not a Jedi. 1.) Outbound Flight -Yes I know its not out yet, but it will enlighten us to the origins of Thrawn. Their are other great Star Wars books like the NJO and Truce at Bakura, But it seams as of recent most new books solely focus on the Jedi. Jedi are great and all, but they can get repetitive.
