Doesn't the Thrawn Trilogy claim that Spaarti cloning cylinders were used during the clone wars as opposed to whatever method the Kaminoans used? Discrepancy! How can both be canon? Ret-con needed!

^(Rhetorical.)

And I enjoyed Shadows of the Empire. I thought it was a pretty good piece of literature when I first read it.

I wonder if I would think it's good literature today... and whether that matters at all.

Argument à la C3PX.

Why does it matter if it is considered canon or not? If you enjoyed it, then it wasn't a waste of time.

Thats why they should have had Zahn write the prequel trilogy and fire george lucas off his own creation since he destroyed it himself.
