Your Star Wars Reading List

Anything with Ben Skywalker in it as semi or main character is pretty good in my opinion. I really need to re brush up on the ' Luke making the New jedi order' era

 

As a new reader, which ones would you recommend? I'm not really a comic book fan but recently I've been watching those dramatized videos of the comics on youtube and I absolutely love them! They are fantastic, even the voice work on them is spot on...they have got me itching to read a few graphic novels.

But where to start...any ideas?

 

Here's my reading list:
- The Thrawn Trilogy (I'm about to start and I've heard good things, so I'm excited)
- Kenobi (Obi-Wan's my favorite character, can't wait to read this)
- The Republic Commando novels

 

Right now I'm about four chapters into Heir to the Empire and I haven't picked it back up in a few months. Gonna try and finish it at the start of the next college semester and eventually make my way through the Thrawn trilogy.

Coming in from Amazon tomorrow (or today, rather) is Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina along with the Alien Archive and ROS Visual Dictionaries. I'll probably be able to bang those last two out in a day or so and then shift to TFTMEC throughout the week.

 

Never have read a Star Wars book but I'm starting with Catalyst. Not sure about the old stuff now that Disney has gone and de-canonized it.

 

Some of the old stuff is worth reading, just remember that it has no implications on the Star Wars universe because they never really happened. But they still are great reads.

 

All day earlier today Ive been reading X-Wing novel Krytos Trap.

I actually enjoy reading and liking Wedge and Corran Horn's archnemesis bad guys Kirtan and Isaard the Imperial woman in red. Theyre still better than Sloane from the Aftermath trilogy.

Kirtan's grudge against Corran Horn and Tycho are a bit over the top but his grudges against them have that Star Magic charm to it where I really couldnt stand Sloane from the Aftermath Trilogy

 

In my opinion Catalyst is a fine novel. I really enjoyed that one as well as the novelization of Rogue One.

As for the old EU, a lot of it is, again in my opinion, wrongly maligned. I'd start with the old Thrawn trilogy myself. Just a suggestion.

True, but honestly, one could almost say the same with the nu-canon. So many cool seeds were planted by the Aftermath trilogy, only to then be ignored in the films (whatever one thinks of the author or the actual trilogy itself).

 

Im reading Star Wars Bloodline. Not bad of a star wars story buy i cant stand the immature bickering between the Centrists and the Populists. Like,really? bunch of grown women and men where they act more like bunch of brats than senators etc

Especially that Lady Carise where shes been trying to kiss Leia's butt and forcing Leia to be First Senator or whatever

 

so random question. is it ok with everyone if I post a piece of my book that im working on? its only a paragraph long. I just want to see if I wrote a good opening.

Want to read: The remaining new canon

I´m looking forward that they develop books and comics related with The Mandalorian and Jedi Fallen Order, there is a lot of potential in that part of the lore.-

 

This month Im reading the sequel trilogy novelizations along with Resistance Reborn.

Im already in the middle of the Force Awakens novel.

When I get done reading those, im going back to reading the older Star Wars books catch up on the Bounty Hunter Wars Trilogy and read X-Wing Bacta War whatever else then probably re-read the old Heir to the Empire Trilogy for old times sake

 

I'm looking forward to starting Darth Maul: Son of Dathomir.

 

Most of my reading so far has been the new canon, and my favorites are Bloodline, Battlefront I and II, the new Thrawn trilogy, and Alphabet Squadron. In the new canon, I still need to read Resistance Reborn and Phasma.

I've only read a few of the Legends books: The New Rebellion, Cloak of Deception, and Ambush at Corellia.
My remaining Legends reading list, so far:

• Assault at Selonia
• Showdown at Centerpoint
• Thrawn trilogy
• Specter of the Past
• Vision of the Future

Eventually, I want to start reading the X-wing novels as well.

 

Since last week ive read the sequel trilogy books starting with Bloodline and Phasma novels.

then two days ago this week i read the novels of Force Awakens and the expanded edition novel of Last Jedi.

Im now reading Resistance Reborn and its pretty good for an in betweener book.

Bounty Hunter Wars Trilogy
X-Wing books 4 to 9
Courtship of Princess Leia
need re-read the old Heir to the Empire Trilogy one last time.
