Since the Marvel comics, newspaper strips, and Thrawn books have already been covered:
COMICS
- The Boba Fett comics (all the ones published before 2006)
- Crimson Empire (there’s also a Crimson Empire II & III, but the second’s not as good as the first and the third’s a prequelized waste of time)
- The Jabba Tape
- River of Chaos
- Tales of the Jedi
NOVELS
I recall also liking The Truce at Bakura and the first two Lando books, but it’s been a couple years since I read them. I’ve also read the first book in The Han Solo Trilogy by A. C. Crispin, found it a great novel, but haven’t yet read the second two books in the trilogy.
I, Jedi is according to Wookieepedia heavily tied in with the Jedi Academy books, does that mean that I should read those as well, or can I just skip those?
I had also forgotten that there were Dark Forces novels, I’ll have to try to get a hold of them now. Are they novelizations of the games, or are they stories from in-between the games? I get the impression that they are kind of both from Wookieepedia.
A lot of interesting sounding comics on the list as well, so I’ll be checking those out in the future. (I already have the Boba Fett ones though, and I love Cam Kennedy the art style. It’s crazy and weird, but like with Dark Empire, it really works for the darker atmosphere of a Boba Fett story.)
