I’ve only had limited experience with the EU but I’d be surprised if there was anything worse then The Crystal Star. I can also vaguely recall a novel where Luke falls in love with a ghost or something.

Children of the Jedi is a gem and you will not speak ill of it.

You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.

I have just read the Wikipedia (yes, wiki) summary of it and its sequels. They include

  • Luke falling in love with a ghost living inside a computer, who later gains a body
  • A big cylindrical superweapon called the “Darksaber”
  • Luke fighting the same Wampa from ESB, and its friends

I did hear recently about his girlfriend’s ghost possessing his student and him being cool with that.

That’s what it was called! I read a whole bunch of EU books around the same time and they kinda blur together. I do remember liking parts of the Callista trilogy (I think Darksaber was my favorite) but the ghost thing was weird. I also wasn’t expecting semi-graphic bedroom scenes in a star wars book…
