TFTNT!
 Heir to the Empire just made me think of Shadows of the Empire by Steve Perry, I believe. That was totally the first SW novel I read, and my long-standing fav altho I haven't read it in aaaaages. I haven't read this, Heir to the Empire, yet. Man, I need to catch up on reading.  ~Red __________________

Shadows was the first "adult" SW book I read, but before that I read the Jedi Apprentice series by Jude Watson and some of the other kids' books. I was 10 when TPM came out, so those appealed to me more.

I like that trilogy.
I am interested in the Thrawn novella. |

Me too. I think I'll buy the special edition, since it isn't very expensive.

Maybe I'll get it. Kind of don't want any more HC on my shelf. Take up too much space.

Heir to the Empire was tolerable, but there was nothing inspired about it. And Zahn worships Thrawn too much. It's annoying.

<-- Worships Thrawn.

Well, that and the price. But if it's a book I really want and will keep for a long time I buy HC. __________________

Though to be fair, back then, the writer of the week always worshipped the warlord of the week, even when their own writing made said warlord generally incompetent. *cough*Zsinj*cough*Daala*cough* |

There was nothing sexual between Thrawn and Pellaeon (not that it would matter if there was). Pellaeon had a high regard for Thrawn and respected him a great deal, which doesn't translate into a romantic relationship. It was clearly the respect a soldier has for his talented commanding officer.
A close relationship does not equal a romantic one you know. __________________

The Thrawn worship doesn't bother me because Zahn actually made Thrawn cool. The Daala worship, on the other hand, I don't get.
Does Daala even have a fanbase? Quote:

Yeah, but TFN's full of deviants. You could even say it's a standard deviation. *ba-dum-psh*
