    Legacy of the Force is my all time fav star wars

    I will respond with which is my favorite once I have read all of the EU books. I am still not done with them all. But so far Republic Commando by Karen Travis stood out for me.

    Anyone else read the new High Republic book The Light of the Jedi? I originally started reading it to make fun of it on Twitter, which I did. But it really ended up capturing  my attention.

    Helping to revive this thread :D

    Any Star Wars that Zahn has written so far has been my favorite. His initial Trilogy with Thrawn will always be a favorite as it’s the first big series novel I read at the age of… gosh… 12? 14 years old? Somewhere around there.

    Rereading a few EU Star Wars books and catching up on ones I haven’t read before so I’ll probably post a new “Here’s my second favorite” in a month or two.

    I’m nearing the end of Darth Bane: Rule of Two. I’m new to the Expanded Universe and I’m really loving it so far

    Anyone lucky enough to get a physical copy of Star Wars: Heart of the Jedi, before Amazon pulled it off their site?

     

    Then today, they announced:

    Amazon, which has been under pressure from shoppers, brands and lawmakers to crack down on counterfeits on its site, said Monday that it blocked more than 10 billion suspected phoney listings last year before any of their offerings could be sold.

     

    At least we can still read it online at The Heart of the Jedi

    or download the PDF off the same page.

    Yes, I managed to get my order in and my copy arrived on Friday. No sign of it in my browsing history on Amazon now though.

    I like reading books, but a buddy of mine loves “Audible” and says he has lots of badges.

      Darth Bane’s twisted genius made him a natural leader among the Sith–until his radical embrace of an all-but-forgotten wisdom drove him to destroy his own order . . . and create it anew from the ashes. As the last surviving Sith, Darth Bane promulgated a harsh new directive: the Rule of Two.

      Two there should be; no more, no less.
      One to embody the power, the other to crave it.

      Now Darth Bane is ready to put his policy into action and thinks he has found the key element that will make his triumph complete: a student to train in the ways of the dark side. Though she is young, Zannah possesses an instinctive link to the dark side that rivals his own. With his guidance, she will become essential in his quest to destroy the Jedi and dominate the galaxy.

      Twenty years have passed since Darth Bane, reigning Dark Lord of the Sith, demolished the ancient order devoted to the dark side and reinvented it as a circle of two: one Master to wield the power and pass on the wisdom, and one apprentice to learn, challenge, and ultimately usurp the Dark Lord in a duel to the death. But Bane’s acolyte, Zannah, has yet to engage her Master in mortal combat and prove herself a worthy successor. Determined that the Sith dream of galactic domination will not die with him, Bane vows to learn the secret of a forgotten Dark Lord that will assure the Sith’s immortality–and his own.

      A perfect opportunity arises when a Jedi emissary is assassinated on the troubled mining planet Doan, giving Bane an excuse to dispatch his apprentice on a fact-finding mission–while he himself sets out in secret to capture the ancient holocron of Darth Andeddu and its precious knowledge. But Zannah is no fool. She knows that her ruthless Master has begun to doubt her, and she senses that he is hiding something crucial to her future. If she is going to claim the power she craves, she must take action now.

      While Bane storms the remote stronghold of a fanatical Sith cult, Zannah prepares for her Master’s downfall by choosing an apprentice of her own: a rogue Jedi cunning and cold-blooded enough to embrace the Sith way and to stand beside her when she at last wrests from Bane the mantle of Dark Lord of the Sith.

      But Zannah is not the only one with the desire and power to destroy Darth Bane. Princess Serra of the Doan royal family is haunted by memories of the monstrous Sith soldier who murdered her father and tortured her when she was a child. Bent on retribution, she hires a merciless assassin to find her tormentor–and bring him back alive to taste her wrath.

      Only a Sith who has taken down her own Master can become Dark Lord of the Sith. So when Bane suddenly vanishes, Zannah must find him–possibly even rescue him–before she can kill him. And so she pursues her quarry from the grim depths of a ravaged world on the brink of catastrophe to the barren reaches of a desert outpost, where the future of the dark side’s most powerful disciples will be decided, once and for all, by the final, fatal stroke of a lightsaber.
