Saw this on Nikki Stafford’s:

And this over at Beyond the New Jedi Order:

Twenty years.  Back before it came out, there was less than a dozen novels in the Star Wars library (three movie novelizations, three Lando adventures, three Han Solo adventures, and Splinter of the Mind’s Eye by Alan Dean Foster).  Nothing’s been the same since.

I still have my original hardback copy and a paperback copy, but there’s no doubt I will get this book. It’s been a long time since I read a Star Wars novel. I still enjoy them, but I kept passing over them for other shiny, new stuff. I made it a goal to read some this year, and I recently decided to read one in February.  Since I’m so behind on reading SW books, I’m hesitant to do a re-read, though can see myself reading the Thrawn novella.
