your right there are alot of books coming out in the PT era, but the stat of the books isnt that bad, in the last 6 months the dark nest trilogy just came out that those books are great, last year the NJO series just finished and you know i define that series as SW more then the PT and some of the OT, its the reasin i am a fan and post on this site. also there are alot of PT books that are good, rogue planet is great, and the outward bound project is going to be awesome aswell. ep 3 was exillent as well, when you look at it in terms as a Star Wars film it was the second best of the series, and was truely the last peice of the true star wars trilogy, EP 3 EP 4 EP 5. so in the last 6 mouths i dont think the state of SW is that bad.
