I think my namesake Mirax is way underused in the EU. I mean she lives on a red Star destroyer! How totally cool is that?

Personly, Chaltba, my favorite part in the Enemy Lines Duology was the part where R2 helps Leai and Han escape from the prison... Artoo rules-much!

Did anyone ever read that novel that was based on SW: Galaxies, Ruins of Dantooine?

Thats exactly what I was thinking, but I was just wondering if anyone picked it up.

IT JUST PROVES AGAIN THAT R2-D2 IS THE TRUE HERO OF THE SW UNIVERSE.

No kidding.

I've allways said that, but nobody ever believes me. If it wasn't for Artoo, there'd be no Leia and Luke, as Padme would have died as an underaged queen.

Well, I guess I have these clone war novels to hold me over.

I doubt I'm the only one who thinks that the Clone Wars novels arent worth it.

The characters of the prequels are mostly too boring to right books about.

Have you read any of them? Some of them are pretty good, and all of them are better than some of the stuff Bantam was churning out.

Well, I've read Attack of the Clones, which was pretty good.

I never really got into the Bantam Novels anyway, apart from Zahn's work. I might check them out, if I ever finish the last novel I bought.

I wanted to get a Sci-fi novel to balance the ridiculous number of political books my mom was buying in anticipation of the then upcomming elections. Unfortunatley, the novel was numbingly political itself. A huge dissapointment, to say the least.

Having read every Bantam SW book besides Children of the Jedi and Planet of Twilight I'd say that around 70% of them were worth it, despite what I said against Bantam.

ROGUE PLANET WASN'T BAD, AND IT EVEN SET UP THE WHOLE NJO WHICH I HAD FIGURED OUT WHEN I FIRST READ VECTOR PRIME. I'VE TRIED THREE TIMES TO READ THE APPROACHING STORM, BUT THAT BOOK IS SO TERRIBLE.

Yeah, skip Approaching Storm, nothing important happened anyway.
