Monday, August 20, 2007 I used to love the whole Star Wars Universe. Even before the prequel trilogy hit the big screens, I was already a pretty big Star Wars fan. For those who only know of Star Wars through movies, it is only the tip of the iceberg. For those in the know, I started off by reading the Han Solo Trilogy. I still count them as some of my favourite books. For fans, the books contain an immense wealth of lore and plot lines that far expand Star Wars beyond that covered in the movies.The Thrawn Trilogy, The X-wing series, The Han Solo Trilogy, The Courtship of Princess Leia, The Jedi Academy Trilogy, The Hand of Thrawn Duology and I, Jedi were all written before the prequel films were released and every book further developed the Star Wars saga. This was one of the main reasons the Star Wars Universe was so successful. Every individual plot line contributed to the big picture. You could just read them individually but together they created a immense and complex world, more than the sum of its parts. After The Phantom Meance was released, a whole new generation of Star Wars geeks were born. A whole new series was started for the Star Wars Universe, The New Jedi Order. It is the longest and most influential series to date. In a nutshell, the Yuuzhan Vong have replaced the Empire as the baddies and are threatening the entire New Republic. It is epic in its scale and delves deeply into the roles of the Jedi in the New Republic. The series was also the first to showcase the new generation of Jedi, including the Solo twins and Anakin Skywalker, as they take on the responsibility of protecting the galaxy. |
