Tribute to Mara Jade

Started by Master Crimzon4 pages

Outbound Flight is the first SW novel I've ever read, so yeah, it holds a special place in my heart. Without it, it may be that none of you would have ever met me. *Cries* Sorry, that's a sad thought...

Anyways, Gideon, I'm gonna have to massacre you for bashing it. Just because I CAN.

o.o SORRY i ment ti put it in EU forum but had a brain fart of sorts o.o....but yea Thrawn and Pallearon were AWESOME

BUT MARA JADE ROCKED her death was NEEDLESS she added a Psychotic and yet AWESOME element to the stories...whoever decided to kill her off...WILL BEAR MY FULL WRATH UPON THEIR SCREWED HEADS!!!!!!

Finish her. DO IT.

No, sir. No. No. Outbound Flight nearly turned me emo and made me renounce my faith in God Almighty. That's how terrible it was.

Please remind me to smite Zahn for making you almost renounce your faith in me, son. But what do you mean with "it turned you emo"? I thought you were already?

That side: You're correct. Outbound Flight must have been the worst SW novel that was ever released. Ever. I bet Kevin J. Anderson can write better stuff on drugs, while Stover would probably write better novels than that even if he was dead.

There are just so many things wrong with that statement. 😐

care to extropolate on that statement? You must have some reason for feeling thus, and i strongly disagree.

Shouldn't this be in the EU section?

The plot is ridiculous, as with all other Zahn-works.

what parts of it exactly? Thrawn defeating a CIS fleet? the whole concept of 6 dreadnaughts all hooked together trying to leave the galaxy? Battle Meditation? C'Baouth stopping a missile with the force?
I'm just curious as to what you find so ridiculous.

hmmm mara jade was the best character ever created for the sole purpose of SEX!

Wow, Glentract. That's pretty weak.

Mara jade is what made Luke Skywalker bearable post RotJ.

No wait, bearable period. I love this women about as much as you can love a fictional character.

Luke was okay pre Thrawn. The ten or so years after ROTJ, for the most part those stories were great space opera fan fare. But his transition to grand master wasn't handle properly in a lot of cases. In fact his character started getting less cool after he married Mara. That's not a knock on Mara, just how I observed things. Marriage makes some these characters a lot less cool. That's why characters like Yoda and Obi Wan fit more easily into their mentor roles.

Considering what's been thrown around as EU lately (the Lotf novels mostly) Outbound is far from the worst EU can offer. But it had a very dry plot, considering it's in-universe and fan hype for almost a decade (since I Jedi I believe if I'm not mistaken).

I actually went out to get Outbound Flight and it was a huge disappointment. I wasn't expecting the best book I'll ever read, just one of the best SW stories, considering the almost mythological status of the event in-universe (and otherwise) before the actual novel was written.

mara war awesom i sucks she died they should have killed tahiri shes the dumbest most annoying character ever. also i think they should make a movie/show with mara, live action or cg I always pictured her with a great rack. and outbound flight war pretty bad but children of the jedi was the absolute worst SW book maybe the worst book ever

Aagh! I think my retinas detached. Grammar, need... grammar.

Your nazi-ness is rubbing off on us Red. 😉

That's how Hitler did it too.

A hobo told me. 😖hifty:

Mara Jade is awesome. She and Luke were such an amazing couple. I was delighted when I read the ending of "Vision of the Future". It's one of my favourite SW novels.

"Union" was also a great story.
