    I've read seven of the novels so far, and have enjoyed them all:
    • Aftermath Trilogy
    • Catalyst
    • Bloodlines
    • Lost Stars
    • Before the Awakening
    The Aftermath trilogy was a little slow in some parts, but I liked the overall pace, especially in Empire's End.

    I'd like to see some of the elements (or characters) from Bloodline and Lost Stars introduced into the films.

    I liked the depth that Before the Awakening and Catalyst added to the characters in The Force Awakens and Rogue One, respectively, as well.

    I'm going to read Thrawn next.

    I think if you've enjoyed the comics you've read so far, you'll enjoy the Darth Vader series - I have.

    So with the new Mace Windu comic announced, what new Star Wars content are you guys looking forward to this summer and fall? Personally, I'm most excited for the new Darth Vader and Mace Windu comics, as well as the new Captain Phasma book and comic! But what are your guys' picks?

    All love for Cassian and K-2. :)

    You have to get excited for Inferno Squad, Iden Versio and her squad will fight Luke post-RotJ in Battlefront II!

    I am extremely interested to see how that plays out. I feel like Inferno Squad might end up being the spiritual successors to Delta Squad.

    Yes, great seeing Lando in his own series. Just wish he'd also been included in the later films coming out now.

    Yes, I agree. But on the bright side, he is going to be in the Han Solo movie!

    Also, welcome to the Cantina!

    I'm most interested in what this "Legends of Luke Skywalker" thing is all about. It's almost as if they are going to keep most of his post-ROTJ history shrouded in mystery up to the point Ben betrays him.

    I'm the creator of Star Wars Reference an effort to catalog and describe the Star Wars Canon as it develops. It's meant to be more accessible than Wookipedia and approaches the Canon as an ongoing story rather than the in-universe perspective of the Wook.

    I'm probably most excited for the *Princess of Alderaan* book; I've been waiting for a book on Leia's life before ANH.

    Isn't Claudia Grey writing that? Cause I will probably pick that up if she is.

    Just read some new comics today, including Volumes 3 and 4 of the main Star Wars series. As I really like hearing more stories with the OT crew, especially Luke, I figured we could talk about it. To start off the discussion, what kind of stories would you guys like to see in this series? I'd like to see the events of Ord Mantell that Han references in ESB, how the Rebels found Hoth, Luke improving his skills as a Jedi, more of Wedge Antilles and the formation of Rogue Squadron, and more of Scar Squad.

    -Obi-Wan and Anakin Interesting read, could have lived without it, interesting to find out Obi-Wan and Anakin's relationship and Anakin's future intentions.
    -Poe Dameron So Far I have enjoyed the series, only about half way through what they currently have out right now.
    -Shattered Empire Enjoyed it, tied some pieces together for me.
    -Darth Vader MUST READ!
    -Doctor Aphra Haven't read the standalone comic yet, got it on my to do list as it sits in my comic box
    -Darth Maul Enjoyed it so far, can't wait for the last one to release in the series.
    -Son of Dathomir Haven't read it yet

    If you're concerned about the cost wait for them to come out in TPB or talk to your local comic shop, I get a discount based off the number of comics I ordered for my box.

    I'd like to see them go back to cover some of the Old Republic stuff.

    I read Aphra`s Book I (Vol. 1 on Comixology) today - outstanding! I believe all you hope to be told will be :D in next issues like SW 34,35 and 36, especially in SW Annual 3 (is it Hoth on cover?).

    Sweet, didn't know about that! I also hope to get more stories from Ben Kenobi's journal about events that wouldn't quite make it into its own comic, the rumored spin-off movie, a novel, etc. such as he came into the Jedi Order, how he met Qui-Gon and became his apprentice, training Anakin, and some random adventures here and there.
