Also, that Jakku is a very important planet. Supposedly, it was extremely important 1,000 years ago and according to Palpatine, it will be important again. |

I consider myself a pretty big Star Wars fan, but haven't read many of the books. Could it be possible the Snoke is simply just a net new character?

Yes, he's a new character but the books I mentioned tell the backstory of what happened between ROTJ and TFA. They're brand new canon.

Bloodline was terrible, IMO. I got about 100 pages in and just got bored with it.
I really enjoyed the first Aftermath novel, though. Very reminiscent of the Rebels cartoon. Need to pick up the second, stat. |

I've noticed over the years, regardless of who is doing the writing, Leia is a pretty boring read.

I've been audio-booking the Bane trilogy. Gawt DAMN that is some of the best shit ever written. The post-III era, when Lucas was letting the best authors run backwards and forwards through the timeline was the best era of SW writing in my opinion.

Meh. Xixor is the interesting one in those exchanges. The only parts I like are the exchanges between her and Han throughout the books.

I don't know if the writing is any better in the new books but I'll bet they're not as goofy (i.e, ysalamiri). Although "Force Tree" rumor is nearly as lame. |
