I am a huge fan of star wars, and i have recently been doing some research into the series of novels about starwars. I think that once i am finished reading Naomi Novak's work i am gonna give the books a shot. I am afraid though, that i will completely get sucked in and wont want to read anything other than Star wars book...dang those Wookies and their cool language!

Having only one more book to read in the Temeraire series (only four are published so far, im sure there will be more), i went ahead and did some research into the star wars novels to find what i wanted to read. Having watched all six movies numerouse times i am more interested about what happens after te movies. I do think there are some great books that explain alot of what happened during those time sbut i more interested in what comes next.
So after finding a complete list of the books, i decided i would like to read "The courtship of Princes Leia, supposedly this book is great and picks up some four years after the last movie...i m really excited to read this one, i'll let you know what i think.

So i finished reading the "Courtship of Princess Leia" The book was fantastic. It picks up about four years after the last star wars movie and continues on a great pace. Luke is seriously awesome and is really starting to become a Jedi master. The concept of people on a backworld thinking of the force as witchcraft was really cool. I am going to read "Empire of Ivory" which is in the Temraire series and then the direct sequal to "Courtship of Leia" which is called "Tatooine Ghost"...Give your more about the star wars books once i get there.

I am now reading "Tatooine Ghost" which is a sequal to "The Courtship of Princess Leia". However between the two books is a novelette called "A Forest Apart" which focuses on Chewbacca his wife Malla and their son Lumpawarrump! This story was previously only in internet form but luckily for me it was printed in the edition of "Tatooine Ghost" that i have. I hope these stories are good, so far they seem like they will be...its kinda hard to go wrong with Chewy or any of the star wars characters for that matter.

Having finished Christopher Moore's LAMB I am now reading a Star Wars book again, this time it is the first book in the THRAWN trilogy called Heir to the Empire. I'll let you know how it goes, it has recieved amazing reviews so I hope its good.
3/1/2008- Just finished reading it and it really leads you into the second book, now all I have to do is drive 45 minutes to get to the nearest book store and by the second book in the trilogy.
3/11/2008- While i was in the Denver airport on my way to MegaCon i was able to get the second book, so far its just a continuation of the first book, but the plot is so complex and so interesting i know i will like this one as much as the first. Plus this is the first time we meet Luke's future wife, Mara Jade, that in intself is awesome. Am i the only Star WARS geek in the forums?
