Darth Maul : Shadow Hunter

Ok I am reading this book now, and I really like it. Anyone else? Just makes me seriously bummed Lucas killed Maul off tho, I'd have prefered him to Dooku anyday. 😛

I read it, it was ok

hmmmmmm is Shatterpoint better? I am debating buying that one.

well, I believe a thread here is already going on about that and some agreed that it didnt totally feel like star wars

hm i sincerely hope Jedi Trial and the Laybrinth book are good.

I hope so too, but if you're interested in good stories, perhaps the comics are up your alley?

aawh....shadow hunter.
well...this one and shatterpoint are the best two i've read. but i haven't read THAT many sw books, and i don't consider ANY sw book TOO good.

but these two are ok.
i actually enjoyed shadow hunter. especially the ending 😛 can't remember much of it...only that it ends

Spoiler:
BADLY

uh I dont think I will ever be able to watch SW cartoons OR read comics.....I'm a little too purist for that. Good grief it's taken me all these years to finally give in and start reading the books.

I was kinda bummed with Maul's novel. It was good, just not GOOD.

Shatterpoint is great so far. Mace Windu is a way better character to read than to watch, since so much goes on in his head. He was alright in Ep 2, but Shatterpoint has me respecting him a lot more. I now know why he is considered the deadliest Jedi.

ah come on JP, give the comics a shot 😉

eh......I dunno, someting just doesnt appeal to me on that level.....

you're too good ? 😛

Nice sig JP.
On-Topic:
I preferred Shatterpoint, personally.

i juts found shatterpoint weird maybe because a non-jedi oponent (even with force awareness) can trouble a jedi master like mace the way he did.

..just to my tastes 😛

ok I'm done. ANd I really liked this book alot. 😄 And the ending was just as it needed to be.

I will say this, of the SW books that Ive read, the ones I like the best are the ones without 80000 techinal descriptions and 400 different characters. I like my stories to be to the point with an occasional twist or two. I tried reading Heir to the Empire twice now and just can NOT get into this book. 😖

the timothy zahn trilogy? why not?

just waaaaaaaaaay too damn many things going on at once for me to keep track of. It could have been that i wasnt in the right fram of mind for it. My reading styles vary widely....but I gotta be in the right mood to wade through something as involved as that book.
