Welcome to Litsy!

I had to do it. Happy Star Wars Day!

I have to admit that this entry didn‘t grip me as much in terms of the story. The fact that this takes place 15 years after the Battle of Endor feels so strange because the Empire practically died out three times now.

Ignoring this, the intervening plot lines for Han, Luke, Leia, Lando, Mara, and Karrde are all extremely well done, while the majority of the Empire‘s political infighting (especially that with Thrawn) bored me beyond belief.

This was very average. I was only in it for Luke and Mara jade and there just wasn‘t enough of that for me. Sigh. ⭐️⭐️💫

Zahn extends the story from his original Thrawn trilogy, as Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade combat a secret Chiss organization loyal to Thrawn's mission.

This was as good as Zahn‘s original three books. Thrawn‘s situation made me sad because he is a favorite character of mine but Pellaeon has clearly learned a thing or two from the tactics master. Still such a great job with the original characters as well. #starwars #zahn #scifi

Lunch with homemade fried rice and Specter of the Past with my sister‘s Valentines Day card as a bookmark.

Sequel duology to the Thrawn trilogy, set 10 years later. Not as strong of a start, but it's early yet.
