Young Jedi Knights

How long have they existed?????

Since 99 I think

oh

In that case of forty some odd Star Wars books I got almost the entire collection of YJK.....though I've read them all

I don't own a single one.

I read every single one of them from the library.

Actually, Diversity Alliance, which isn't my favorite YJK book, was the first ...or close to the first....Star Wars book I ever read. I won some sort of reading contest at the library and in the grab bag of junk I found a Star Wars book....it looked like the best thing in the entire box so I took it 😄
That started me on non-stop Star Wars reading 😉

That's cool. What was the contest?

Every time you reaad a book you wrote your name and the title and your rating of the book on a little entry form. I didn't work back then so I read about 10 books in 2 weeks. They randomly drew 10 slips out a week ...and I won...twice in fact 😉

HaHa.

I bet there weren't too many people that actually participated though.

probably true....but even if tehy did I think they were all abot 12 and read about a book a month.....not much of a competition for an avid reader with a lot of time on her hands 😉

I just thought I'd resurrect this discussion seeing that Gordon skywalker also enjoyed this series

Yes I do. I was excited when I first bought and read Lightsabers and Jedi Under Siege back in '97. The whole Special Edition was being released at that same time, and I got into the Star Wars books after seeing A New Hope SE with my best friends. Afterwards, I eventually read them all up to Siege and then the trilogy they did to end the series. They were great little books,too. Between them and Jedi Apprentice(see my thread!) this was what literary Star Wars was all about!

Oh and I liked Zekk the best, along with that girl who was a princess or something...the one that could climb.

Tenel Ka, Fact!

That was her name! Ok , I somehow forgot it! She and Zekk were my faves. 🙂

She's cool....but I was more a fan of the Solo twins....I dunno just one of those things...
I think that Tenel Ka's history was cool and the character was interesting.......

She had an air of mystery about her that really came into the light in Lightsabers. No one except Master Skywalker knew the secret of her family until sometime in the course of that story.

I don't think I really liked that story...compared to all the others ...but I do now as I look back and remember it.....for some reason I found the silly little story of Shadow academy and Darkest KNight....to be quite interesting

I enjoyed The Lost Ones and Shadow Academy because of the storyline based on how Zekk had the potential to become a Jedi Knight, but the Solos never considered it due to his poverty-stricken life. I always thought that was very hypocritical of them.

hypocritical......all I remember is the

Spoiler:
Zekk trying to eat the decoration

No that is NOT what I was thinking of!
