I recently updated my personal Star Wars Canon. After thinking about it, I decided to abandon my Legends purism and to create a personal continuity that combines the best elements from both the EU and Disney’s Canon. I’ve also decided to get rid of the stories I never truly cared about in the first place.

Depending on my mood it might just be the original film, radio drama and books and comics from the 70s and 80s.

Or might extend to the entire Star Wars trilogy but nothing before 1997.

Some of the EU books are in there not all, i have to give it a thought, but the Zahn books the original ones not Disney.

Dark Empire I and II but not Empire’s End.

Tales of the Jedi, the X-wing books.

Basically, nothing prequel or Disney. Though I will say how much i enjoyed those prequel era games, comics, pre Filoni material.

I do like Young Jedi Knights and for me Jedi Academy trilogy is a mixed bag. But i wish there was an alternate EU after Vision of the Future which isn’t the Vong Invasion, so no New Jedi Order, and no Legacy of the Force, or Fate of the Jedi. Jacen doesn’t become Hayden Skywalker 2.0 .No New Sith of week and if there was way to do so, I would have limited the Superweapon of the week in Bantam and Dark Horse.

Anakin isn’t killed because George was confused over two Anakin’s. Mara isn’t killed. Boba Fett doesn’t do what he did in those books training Jaina.

Han, Leia and Luke retire gracefully and the new generation takes over. They aren’t slaughtered for shock value, die for completely no reason. Or lie down and will themselves to die.

Which was never the case to begin with, anyway. In fact, while George did say that people were going to be confused by the fact that there were two Anakins as main protagonists, he never instructed the authors to kill off Anakin Solo. He only stated that Anakin should not have been the main protagonist of the New Jedi Order series, and suggested that Jacen should have taken that role instead. The authors made the decision to kill off Anakin on their own; no one directed them to do so. They could have easily kept Anakin as a secondary character without killing him.
