Star Wars EU Thread.

No new Disney canon allowed only legends.

What books have you read?

I am currently reading Children of the jedi.

Never read anything from the EU. Anything you'd recommend?

Didn't Disney kill the EU? I would have thought it would have been source material for them but as usual coorperate suits and self-annointed screenwriters think they can do everything better.

Yes, it was de-canonized in April 2014.

>de-canonized

They can actually do that?

If they can de-canonize what is stopping them from de-canonizing the original films? They could get J. J. Abrams to rehash them and give them a Disney make over. I always thought Empire Strikes Back would be better if it had more convoluted plot and characters flatter than a loli’s chest.

Such a shame, the Old Republic era is so much more interesting than their half-assed replacement 'High Republic'

The original clone wars were also great.

Disney scrapped the Clone Wars series too?

The 2003 clone wars.

I remember enjoying the Republic Commando series. All this fuss about the new Andor series, those books managed 'gritty, real war' even within the established rules of Star Wars (disposable clones).

Sadly, most of the novels seemed to revolve around people's OC-donut-steals. Kevin J. Anderson's super-cool Jedi-Sith-hybrid defeated-Luke-twice is just a radical guy. It's Sonic levels of weird.

(Heard the original Thrawn Trilogy is solid, but I never read it.)
