Query to the people that have read the books
I have never read any of these books, but I'd like to. I also know there are a bunch of them. My main interest in reading ones that run between the movies and deal mainly with Anakin and Luke. Is there a friendly peep that will post which books fall into the above catageory? Much thanks in advance.

I'm not sure that there are any that could fall under that category '
But you should really read the Rogue Squadron ones

First, you could read the original trilogy in paperback. I believe you can find all 3 movies in one. Then you can look for the novelizations to E1 & E2. Then search for the multitude of thin paperback books that are written on a whim. I'm sure you can find them at any Coles or Chapters. Or search the web under google.com; you'll find plenty of titles there. In the meantime, look around here:

Yes Stackpole wrote the bulk of them, and they're a very good read; if you want something different than stories about Luke and the rest of the gang, I'd highly reccomend them

well, almost EVERY book post Endor is about Luke these days
just DON'T read Crystal Star and some others but I luckily forgot their names
about Anakin, don't read Rogue Planet
The Approaching Storm was nice, but that was because it set out a few days before AOTC premiered

I must say that Timothy Zahn is the best one.

Shatterpoint is an AWESOME book. Also, you really want to read the New Jedi Order series. Very good stuff.
