gorion7 Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 Any1 read any star wars novels. I'm reading legacy of the force, it's about 40 years after the battle of endor. There is no emotion; there is peace. There is no ignorance; there is knowledge. There is no passion; there is serenity. There is no chaos; there is harmony. There is no death; there is the Force.
Revan1127 Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 (edited) yeah I read all up to sacrifice dk how i feel bout them though, Ill want till the seris is over before I judge Edited August 26, 2007 by Revan1127 "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both."

Landiskan Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 I haven't read Sacrifice yet, waiting for it to come out in paperback. Unfortunately someone blurted out a spoiler in my presence. Kinda a biggie, if it's true.
ObiWanFredobi Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 Any1 read any star wars novels. I'm reading legacy of the force, it's about 40 years after the battle of endor. I've read all of the New Jedi Order books and just about everything post-original trilogy. I finished inferno a week or two ago and have enjoyed most of the legacy series up to date. I really liked the NJO, lots of good action and you can probably find the books at a used bookstore as the series finished up a few years ago.
Dark_Raven Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 The last one I read was Dark Journey. It was decent but I'm not really into the books after RotJ. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Kissamies Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I like post RotJ more than prequel books. I like LotF as much as I thought I would when I saw who the writers were. A very good series IMO. I don't much care about the whole idea of bringing back the Sith , but at least they did it well. Liked that old Marvel Comics villain too. Very nostalgic for me. SODOFF Steam group.

The spoiler part, was that in any books or just some comics? I didn't know there was anything past the whole Vong storyline, i read about what happens on wookiepedia but i would like to actually read the books that contain those stories. But i am not a comic person so i am hoping that it is in actual book form.
Kissamies Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Well, I think it was first on the Legacy comics, but in universe timelines, it happens in LotF first. LotF is about 40 ABY, while the comic is something like 140 ABY. I don't think that comic is so great, but some people seem to like it. Clarification: It happens in the books. In comics they already are and their origins don't seem to be explained that much, as far as I have read those. Edited October 17, 2007 by Kissamies SODOFF Steam group.
TelosSavior Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 I dont read any star wars books. Are they good? Are they only about like after and before the movie or different jedi?

Landiskan Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 I'm waiting for Sacrifice to come out in paperback before getting it. Also I already have Inferno on paperback... (Huh!?!?) and i'm not reading that till i've read sacrifice. It's sitting there teasing me.

Oerwinde Posted October 25, 2007 Posted October 25, 2007 (edited) I know my big thing about paperback/hardcover is usually price. I just can't justify paying 30-40 bucks for a book. But when its something I really like, I would pass on the hardcover if its part of a series that I have the rest in paperback. It just looks bad on the bookshelf. My Wheel of Time stuff is like that. I have book 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 11 in paperback, 2 in Trade Paperback, and 8 in Hardcover, and it looks retarded on the shelf.

Kissamies Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 I would pass on the hardcover if its part of a series that I have the rest in paperback. It just looks bad on the bookshelf. I agree. I could live with first and last of the series being like that, but some random middle parts? It looks silly. SODOFF Steam group.
Landiskan Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 My bookshelf isn't tall enough for hardbacks. Plus it costs a fair bit more than paperbacks. What a cruel society.
jodo kast 5 Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 I only read the stuff before the films, or inbetween them. The ones after are pretty much crap, well, except the Thrawn Trilogy, I guess...
Bass-GameMaster Posted November 3, 2007 Posted November 3, 2007 I read around the Bane era it was interesting how influenced he was by Revan. ""Savior, conqueror, hero, villain. You are all things, Revan
Kissamies Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Well, originally he was a short story by Kevin J. Anderson, someone I avoid like plague now, and a comic about flying golden pirate ships, lightwhips and furry jedi. No Revan. Ignoring that silliness and pseudo-medieval trappings, that comic is pretty good, but I guess Drew Karpyshyn transforms that story into something less sily. SODOFF Steam group.
Bass-GameMaster Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 I did think the Light Whip was pretty propostorous ""Savior, conqueror, hero, villain. You are all things, Revan
