How to find Novels by Era

I'm past the point of reading every Star Wars novel and comic book that comes out. I want to focus only on those Novels which include major characters from the Original Trilogy. Han, Luke, Leia, Chewie, Lando, Obi-Wan, Darth Vader etc. I know Mace Windu isn't from the Original Trilogy, but Shatterpo...

Re: NOVELS: From a Certain Point of View

I read the Star Wars Short Story collection when it came out a couple years ago. And I'm about half way through the Empire collection. As with any collection, the stories are hit and miss with some better than others. It's Star Wars and it's Original Trilogy era so I'm gonna give these the benefit o...

Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (SPOILERS ALLOWED)

Agreed Magnus, if there isn't one, I'd say that's a hint and a half that they are behind schedule for that May release date. How long have we been seeing trailers/ads for Black Panther? More than three months time... Oh and if it is just a typo on the Mibban thing, then I hope it is the Planet with ...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Eight Ben was right about the speeder; it was belching smoke, sand and dust by the time they arrived at the small mud hut stationed on the outskirts of the Jundland Wastes. The hut stood near the edge of a cliff overlooking a seemingly endless tide of sand dunes. Working together, it didn’t ...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Seven Ian carefully placed Wingo’s body next to their supplies near the exit of the cave and approached the man. He looked to be a good twenty cycles older than Ian, but the young man figured the desert sun makes one look older. He wore tan and brown robes, and had reddish hair and a beard f...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Six The dragon’s howl reverberated throughout the chamber, threatening to bring the entire cave down on top of their heads. Ian and Wingo, dodging gravel and debris falling from the ceiling, rushed into the chamber to find Gentoo stuffing dragon eggs into his rucksack with one hand while wav...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Five The wail of the proximity alarm quickly pulled Ian out the past and into the present. He ran up to the cockpit to find Wingo swerving back and forth to avoid the ships and debris which filled the orbiting lanes around Coruscant. Muttering Todarian curse words under his breath, Wingo smo...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Four The beeping of the navicomputer and Wingo’s voice over the comm roused Ian from his reverie. “We’re coming out of hyperspace, cleared for Corellia orbit.” Almost non-stop since they left Dathomir, Turlock had been watching the vid-cube of his adventure, adding his own embellishment ever...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Three The next day, the Drifting Wind received clearance to leave Dathomir space. First, they would return Turlock to his ship in a space dock orbiting Corellia. After that, it was on to Coruscant to pick up their next client, a man by the name of Colen Gentoo. Gentoo was hiring them for a s...

Re: Drifting Wind

Chapter Two The next morning, Ian handed Turlock a motion vid and a still frame unit. Ian and Wingo were carrying matching sets. Each member of the party also had smaller automatic vidcams attached to the top of their wide brimmed hats. At the end of the trip, the footage from all of these will be e...

Re: Solo: A Star Wars Story (SPOILERS ALLOWED)

A couple comments: One: Mimbam is way to close to Mimban from Splinter of the Mind's Eye which is still one of my favorite Star Wars stories...probably because when I was a kid all I had was the Star Wars novelization, Splinter of the Mind's Eye, and Brian Daley's Han Solo adventures and the hit and...

Fan Fiction: Drifting Wind

Star Wars: Drifting Wind The Galaxy has undergone tremendous change; the Republic is no more, replaced by the first Galactic Empire. For many beings on planets far from the Core Worlds, life goes on much as it had before. However, sometimes circumstances coalesce, cosmic tumblers click into place, a...
