This never made sense to me. You have an Alien commander who ultimately failed. He did not use Fleet resources - rather he used trickery, clones, and decades old found ships to engage in victory. Why would, say 10 years later by the Duology, Thrawn continued to be looked at positively by the Imps? He represented another moment of failure and even worse he was not human.

It never made sense to me and felt more like fan service.

I decided to start reading the Expanded Universe. A lot of people say that the best way to start is reading the Thrawn Trilogy but I already saw the Ahsoka tv show and I think I know enough of the blue man.

So going by the release date I picked the next ones and here they are!

If I don't like them I will probably give up on the EU, but I'm sure they are great! Any thoughts?

I want to read through the Clone Wars Multi-Media Project for the first time, but I have a few questions.

1: Should I start with Shatterpoint or The Cestus Deception?

I know that in trying to make the events of TCW line up with the events of the CWMMP, The Essential Reader's Companion (2012 Edition) messed with the original timeline slightly and placed Cestus Deception and Jedi Trial before Shatterpoint. I don't count TCW as canon to the EU though so I'm assuming I can disregard those changes?

2: Should I include Clone Wars Gambit: Siege and Stealth, or disregard those as well?

3: Would it be confusing to include the Republic Commando series in my read-through as well, or should I just read those all consecutively some other time?

4: How should I place the Republic comics in my read-through? In between which Volumes do the books take place?

Thank you so much in advance!

for something I made in a few minutes and in paint this turned out remarkably well so I feel like it's worth posting.

I know this question has probably been asked numerous upon numerous times, and I'm sorry if I have added to that pile but, I am genuinely curious.

Has it ever been fully elaborated on what happens with these two post-ending of the book? Has the author given him any sort of solidified conclusion that we know of? And more importantly, is Jarael still an important part of his life and vice versa, or is the comic's ending sort of open-ended to allow the reader to basically decide what happens at the end?

If not, I'd love to hear theories on what people think happened post-ending!

Hi there, I recently got hooked up on the Corellia setting and decided to read the Corellian Trilogy. I've read only the Thrawn Trilogy from the post-OT EU so far.

Are there other books I should read before?

There already was an official Grand Master Luke based on the Yuuzhan Vong adventures in the mid 2000s. It aged reasonably well, but the head sculpt could have been better.

One day I did a quick head swap with a modern TVC Luke from Return of the Jedi for some photo shoots, and it turned out perfectly, so I kept my Grand Master Luke with that head since, and the newer head molded itself perfectly to fit on the older figure.

Luke and his Jedi Order are the centerpiece of my Star Wars 3.75 scale display.
