I re-read "Heir to the Empire" about 7 years ago. I'd agree with Luke's assessment about Zahn's love for his own creations. However, I'm okay with that since his creations are really great additions to the Star Wars mythos.
Hope you like the rest of it. If not... it's really Ravenface's fault. He's the one that convinced me to read "Heir to the Empire" in the first place. :)

makes sense. My only thought might be that he had to set the stage for fans who had NO idea what a post Return of the Jedi galaxy would be aside form the New Republic and their heros Luke, Han, Leia & Chewie.i hesitate re-reading the books as i am not sure that they will live up to the love i had for them at the time.On Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 11:06 AM, Luke <[email protected]> wrote:
By this I mean that you can tell he really likes Thrawn and Pellaeon
and C'baoth and gives them a lot of attention. Like I said, only
about 100 pages in but his creations are getting a lot more "screen
time" than Luke, Leia, and Han.
There's nothing wrong with that. Just my initial impression.
