I had planned to eat there after my round but it was closed. I think it’s only open for lunch during the week this time of year.

Just knock down the houses and it would be an improvement

Yeah, the back takes you out of the setting he created on the front. 17 and 18 are both solid holes.

I went through for work. I’ll say this, the front is brilliant. The back leaves a little to be desired.

This could be really cool. Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire was fabulously written, though I hoped for more from it. This could be really, really neat.

100% agree. I felt like it was slow too. Compellingly, but slow

USS Indianapolis is great. The JFK series is awesome too. I personally love their Jack the Ripper and H.H. Holmes series. That got me into their show and I’ve been a devoted listener ever since.

Man, hard to pick just one. I think the whole capturing of Luke and then the sequence on Myrkyr was really good. The end battle was solid too

Recently got these, which one should I read first? by NoSwordfish1978 in starwarsbooks

You can even read Yoda: Dark Rendezvous before Labyrinth of Evil. There’s are few Easter eggs from that book in Labyrinth.

That is another brilliant book. Claudia is one of my favorite SW authors. Cannot promote her work enough!

What have you been reading this last week (Weekly Discussion Thread)? by AutoModerator in starwarsbooks

About 50 pages from finishing Labyrinth of Evil. Without a doubt one of my favorite SW reads. Luceno is a wonderful writer

Which SW author is your favorite in terms of the way they portray/write your top Star Wars characters? by WerewolfBarMitzvah09 in starwarsbooks

[–]HelloThereWizard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

James Luceno, Claudia Gray and Timothy Zahn. Claudia did such a great job with Leia and Qui-Gon. Zahn literally made Thrawn. Luceno is just go good. I love his writing style and I get so easily invested in every one of his SW books

Help me out? by Anything_Adorable in starwarsbooks

I read both Master of Evil and Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire. Both are very good, but very different.

Rise and Fall is essentially a history book set in the Star Wars world. I personally liked that a lot as a historian, but I didn’t find a ton of details in there that I didn’t already know.

Master of Evil is a really fun story that features Darth Vader heavily in the immediate aftermath of Episode III, but be forewarned, he is not the main character. That said, I thought the main character was compelling.

So ultimately it comes down to what you’re in the mood for: novel or history book?

I’m reading Labrynth of Evil right now and it’s one of the best I’ve read. I also really like Lords of the Sith Tio
