We're getting a book called the legends of luke Skywalker from an author called ken liu.
Also Claudia grey is writing a book called Princess Leia. She did an incredible job with Bloodline.
No news where the luke book is set but I know where I want it to be.

Yeah, that Luke book is gonna be required reading.
I guess I should really do Bloodline too.

Bloodline is a great read. Super informative for the political background of the galaxy in the run up to TFA.
This luke book has me super excited. The author is really good with fantasy and has a book of short stories it seems.

Finished up the Dark Disciple. I enjoyed it. After reading 2 that were between III and IV it was jarring to read about so many Jedi though.
So far my Canon novel rankings of what I've read
1. A New Dawn
2. Dark Disciple
3. Ahsoka

Yeah I really enjoyed dark disciple. Really cool to see a story from the underside.
Never read A New Dawn

It really gives a lot of depth to Kanan and has made him an infinitely better character. Like I really like him now.

Listening to the Thrawn audiobook. Thrawn sounds great but the other main character, his lieutenant, has this deep Texas drawl that's crazy distracting. Cos he's from 'wildspace'.
It's good stuff so far though. Palpatines appearance was awesome and the narrator nails him.

I have finished 'Tarkin' but haven't picked anything else up. I'm thinking either Thrawn or Bloodline will be my next.

If you watch Rebels, check out A New Dawn. It is an easy read but really great Kanan and Hera story. I love them both now.

So, I'm thinking... after Ahsoka:
1. Bloodline
2. A New Dawn
3. Lost Stars
4. Dark Disciple
Yes? No?

Can't go wrong with any of them. Most are easy reads. I haven't read DD but you know it is good with Ventriss in it.

Thanks Ruddo. I think I've heard good things about all of them and/or they have characters I really like featured.
