There are bound to be a few Zahn fans around here someplace. I haven't gotten around to reading Vision of the Future, but I recently did finish Spector of the Past....I thought it was excellent. It was almost as good as the NJO series...
any thoughts...

Vision of the Future is a great book.
Spoiler: It's where you first see Luke and Mara hook up and start liking eachother.
He even proposes to her in that same book.
Man it seems like forever since we had to use the spoiler tags.

I thought the Zahn books were very good, better than NJO. IMHO.

His series are great.
The NJO is right up there with them too.

Zahn's an awesome author, but I love the NJO series every bit as much as I liked Spector of the Past and better than the first book of his trilogy....

I agree. I quite enjoyed reading Specter and Vision. More so than the early books of the New Jedi Order. I also liked Luke proposing to the lovely Mara Jade.

I thought that it was too sudden for Luke to propose.
Because at the beginning of Specter they don't even want to be near each other. Same goes for most of the EU books up until then.

hey it could happen...besides they knew each other for a long time....so why not the sudden romantic interest?

To me it just doesn't sound natural.

I still liked them getting together at the conclusion of the Hand of Thrawn thing. And they were already married by the time Vector Prime kicked off the NJO series. 💃

I eventually want to read the comic series called Union...but I don't usually go out and buy comic books
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
Yeah, it's a shame they didn't just make it into a novel. Collecting those comics can be even more expensive.
JUL
JulieThe Student
yup...once in awhile I go to a flea market and buy a few sw comics for about $1 each
GOR
GordonSkywalkerThe Watcher
We don't have a flea market here anymore. It closed its doors some weeks ago, and I hear they're putting a home depo store there.
JUL
JulieThe Student
oh that's too bad...actually I go to one about 45 minutes from my house..it is in PA
GOR
