Hey guys, so i've notice, a lot, that i'm pretty behind on reading the SW books and i need to know which ones i do need to read, i have read LOTF and is reading FOTJ and a its been a while since i've read New Jedi Order, so i'll probably read that again, but do you guys have any suggestions? do i really need to read Dark Nest? i pretty know what happens, but just wondering. Oh and whats the Darth Bane Series called? and the Thrawn Series too, i've read Outbound Flight so i know who he is.

Read Thrawn. Read Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor. Maybe read a few of the old Clone Wars books (there are a ton).

You must read the Thrawn series! Amazing stuff, that. Very Happy

Stay away from Dark Nest! If you already know what happens, run far, far away. Don't ever look back. You could be permanently scarred. Shocked

The Darth Bane books are great! Path of Destruction is the first one its a must read.

Thrawn is a must read.

I liked Darth Vader Rise of the Dark Lord which is between ROTS and ANH.

The X-Wing series is a lot of fun and once you are introduced to Corran Horn you can pick up I, Jedi which is a good read as well.

I really like the Republic Commando books too - but that kinda deadends without Traviss.

My five favorite Star Wars books would be

1. Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor
2. Darth Bane: Dynasty of Evil
3. Crosscurrent
4. Republic Commando: Hard Contact
5. Thrawn Trilogy

X-Wing series early on is really good, and Shadows of the Empire was another really good book.

@DarthSanith

I have 83 madam, and I think there are a couple not accounted for.
