time line doesn't list of "younger readers" books or of stories done dark horse comics pretty complete , date time line. doesn't, last time looked, have books of new series running right ... "the fate of jedi" ... i'm sure in near future.

if you're wondering place start reading eu books have agree "markwillstar", fact galls me core of being & 1 never happens because pretty hate each other when gets 1 right have give him credit it, in recommending thrawn trilogy. written hugo award winning author timothy zahn & way beyond great. set 5 years after events of ep vi & shows struggles rebellion turned new republic face try bring fair minded & principals of old republic. when last of palpatine's 12 grand admirals returns duties in unknown regions take command of imperial fleet & launch attack after attack sole purpose of destroying new republic & replacing new empire. titles are: "heir empire", "dark force rising", & "the last command". these books spectacular read , made zahn "master" of sw eu. sw book written him great story , worth reading well. hate quote "critic" because have opinion directly opposite of mine. said this: zahn captures feel of star wars can hear soundtrack of john williams playing in of head read. after thrawn trilogy recommend x-wing series. after reading these books know enough ground on characters not confused story.

may force ...
