A few months ago, I started collecting and reading the Legacy of the Force, a 9-book series written variously by three authors, and starring the now all-growed-up Solo Twins. I started reading it because I had heard people say that it was a good story. Well, those people lied. And as much as I'd like to become Ranty McRanty-pants about why,
I found a review of the series that pretty much sums up everything I wanted to say (There are spoilers; though I don't like to call them that because it implies I actually cared about what happened in the story. Frankly, I don't even think the authors did) . Although I'm only a third of the way through the sixth book, Inferno, I'm finished with the series. It pains me to see the Galaxy Far, Far Away reduced to this kind of recycled drivel.
On the up side, I discovered that Timothy Zahn wrote a Thrawn duology, so I'm looking forward to tackling those, next.
Also, if you haven't played Lego Star Wars, you MUST.
