Dark Empire also says that Yoda never uses the lightsaber because he is so powerful in the force...

I don't think blue milk was as popular in the Star Wars community as you would hope :P

Heh, I couldn't go back to HDs now that I live entirely on M.2 SSDs.

I guess, though eventually they would look like ants and then I would want to kill them before they ate my sandwich.

Well, let us hope those are better, even Vovin felt like a flawed album as I said. Something on par with Wishmaster is good, but it just isn't astounding.

Indeed, I am quite familiar with World Devastators by this point. One of the more memorable ships of the EU with the Dreadnaught, Carrack class cruiser, and Interceptor Star Destroyer. You are lucky I remember the name Byss, as I said, planets are a dime a dozen to the point that they get highly forgettable.

Well, one of the three-eyed mutants is Palpatine's son. The other is the main villain of the stories and is absolutely terrified of a 12 year old boy. Han Solo is one of the oddest characterizations, he ditched Princess Leia to get a floating mansion on Bespin. He spends his time now wearing an apron and cooking food. Chewbacca likes to make zoochberry pies.

I would recommend it indeed, they are some of the most notable stories I have seen. The fact that they pretty much jump-started the entire New Republic era and introduced Mara Jade speaks for itself. If they were referencing Dark Empire, I can imagine there were references to the Thrawn trilogy, they were pretty much must-reads in 1992. The West End Games treats them with a reverence you don't see for any of the other stories. The biggest things I can think of from Dark Empire are holocrons and the names of Leia's children (Thrawn trilogy didn't give them, at least not the first two books, which means chronologically this is earlier even if it is mentioned in the third book). So I still have the third book to check out, as I keep saying, but the first two parts are indeed great. The second reads like a direct continuation of the first, so there isn't a shift in quality to report. West End Games, as I said, treats them so highly as to have a sourcebook for each book detailing out the world and sometimes adding more details to the world than the books had.

Funny you mention that song, that is the exact song that makes me need to listen to Within Temptation to continue Tarja to continue Nightwish. I just need to make it to a game in 2004 that Within Temptation did a song for. Until then, it is Star Wars sourcebooks for me.

So the weekend I will be taking it slow, but next week I should be starting up Super Star Wars as long as all goes to plan.
