Has anyone read the Zahn novel Outbound Flight? I know I stated in my first post that I wasn’t interested in post-PT novels, but having read the Hand of Thrawn I’m now kind of curious about what Zahn had in mind when describing Thrawn’s backstory. I’m a bit skeptical though as it lists Obi-Wan and Anakin as characters, but I don’t know how important they are to the story.
Would anyone recommend this book, or is it a post-PT retconned mess like a lot of stories from the early 2000’s were?
(I’ve already had some issues with how convoluted Hand of Thrawn was, but a lot of that I imagine would have been easier to ignore if the duology hadn’t been so damn long.)Zahn also wrote a book in 2004 called Survivor’s Quest which I know absolutely nothing about, but it has Luke, Mara and Thrawn on the cover, so I am a little bit intrigued.
I never got far into Outbound Flight, but I do recall that Anakin and Obi-Wan are featured prominently – at least early in the book.
