We tend to read them all the way through (not me, I could only stand every other one at most) only because we started it, may as well finish it.
And I still say that if any of those Jedi pussies would use Force-Lightning, then they could have defeated the Vong much easier.
Bunch of whinos is all they are.

That's what confuses me. Luke suppoedly can do Force Lightning, yet he doesn't teach it to his students. WTF?
And also, the Vong are supposed to be force 'resistant' from a source.(Nai Fohl).
Originally posted by HimoKunYeah, I know, so true. But don't forget that the lightning isn't made of the Force, it's like some sorts crazy-ass "produce of the Force. It's still in it's own..."freaky" way, matter, which the Yuuzhan aren't immune too. They just repel the Force mentally, in a way... I guess, but not so as physically as lightning is.

Originally posted by xxxpoppunker182Try the Thrawn Trilogy, or the trilogy where you meet Kyp Durron, forget what it's called. But most people recommend Thrawn.
the bounty hunter series. andi want to get into more about the ancient sith but i dunno what that series is called. i think golden age of the sith but then that might just be a book. i dunno.
Yeah, NJO is trash.
The Vong are "not part of the force", so force powers rarely work on them. However, if you fry them with force lightning, drop a building on their silly head, or throw stuff at them with the force, they will still take damage. How does this work?
There are huge incongruities in force powers, you see individuals that are written inconsistently, and the series is just awkward writing in my opinion. I, personally, don't like it at all.
I actually liked the NJO series.
You should try the Thrawn trilogy. Then the Jedi Academy books followed by I, Jedi because it's the Jedi Academy books from Corran Horns point of view but then changes in the last two thirds. I haven't read Dark Empire myself, but I here it's good.
For the Ancient hunger, I can't tell you a lot. I have only read one of those and it was a comic. It was called "The Great Sith War" or something like that and was a six comic series about Exar Kun and Ulic I think(I've only read the first one, the comic stores here suck.)
Definatly read the Thrawn trilogy if you haven't.
Actually, Corran Horn's one of the few force users that's actually realistc (by realistic I mean, similar to the movies)--I know him from the X-Wing series rather than I, Jedi...so that opinion might change if he's twisted like what happens to most characters.
The Thrawn Trilogy was bogus. I hated it.
Spoiler:For those of you who haven't read it, there's just too many "coincidences" to make it believable. I love Thrawn, Pelleaon, and the Interdictor Cruisers...everything else in that series is crap.
Lando just HAPPENS to be present when Thrawn attacks with the mole miners, Mara Jade just HAPPENS to be at the palace when the imperials attack so she can ambush them using passages only she knows, C'baoth just HAPPENS to turn on Thrawn during Bilbringi, and Thrawn just HAPPENS to be ignorant enough to not realize the Noghri have turned on him. Honestly. This guy hasn't missed a thing up until now.
Apparently, in all the attempts the Empire made to restore themselves as rulers of the galaxy after ROTJ, Thrawn came the closest, even Reborn Palpatine didn't do as good as job as him, maybe.
But read the series in which Kyp Durron is introduced, the best parts aren't about the Force stuff, but the badass technology in the book.
