Star Wars Books

I don't think we've ever discussed the written Star Wars world. Things in the Star Wars universe are much different in the future than what the movies depict. Here's some info about the latest NJO books.

What does Mr. Lucas think of all these books? In my opinion he's the ruler of the Stars Wars World so I go by him for the facts. Does he agree with these stories, I know there are tons of them?

His he done after the next movie with Star Wars? His he going to do 3 more that take place after Jedi or was Jedi the last story for the movies?

 

George has said that he will not be making Episodes VII, VIII, or IX. Everything that is written has his blessing. I'd like for him to share what his ideas for the last 3 stories are though.

 

NJO is a great series!!! I've read every book in this series so far and have been completly enthralled. Lots of thing happen in this series that you would never expect.. It takes place about 25 years after Jedi. A race from out side of our galaxy is invading and eventually take over Corscant... If you are a Star Wars fan read these books!!

 

I recently just got into the Star Wars Books, and find them to be good reading! I've read the Jedi Quest Series, and Now reading the Jedi Aprentice Series (I'm on Book 5). Jedi Quest is based on Young Anikin and Obewon...The Jedi Aprentice is based on Young Obewon and Qui Gon Jin.

I also have read the "Shadows of the Empire"..which takes place somewhere between "Empire Strikes Back", and "Return of the Jedi". It's a excellent book!

I also have Book 1 (Heir to the Empire) of the Thrawn Trilogy (After Return of the Jedi). Haven't stared reading it yet, but from what I here it's good!

There are a ton of them out!

 

I think he has a hand, or at least some sort of approval for most...After the next one I think he's finished....Although I think we will see either the Thrawn Trilogy, or the New Jedi Order in some form of a movie within 10 years. I see Lucas being involed, but not as involed as has been with Eps I - VI...

 

The Thrawn Trilogy is awesome. Another good one is Splinter of the Minds Eye. It was set between A New Hope and Empire. One more Trilogy you may want to check out is The Corellian Trilogy. It Revloves a lot around Han Solo.

 

Cool, I'll add those to my list...!

 

I thought that the original Star Wars was the first 6 episodes which are really the story of Anakin/Darth and his fall to the dark side and his comeback to the good. The last three were not part of the original story. Is that true?

What happens in the last three? any good sites for the story?

 

I don't know about that, and the official website doesn't say anything about the last 3 stories. I think.
