Gonna keep reading through to the trilogy before I start Dune after Soph got me a copy without Timothee Chalamet on the cover (love her more than anything tbh based and epic gift).
Did not get this notifaction naturally
Good thing I checked the thread!Anyway glad you liked it! I read the original Thrawn trilogy back in middle school (13 or 14 I think) and still remember how Zahn pulled me in and made Thrawn one of my favorite villains. Let me know what you think of the rest and if you want my Star Wars Legends reading list again!

Been trying to get back into reading a bit more lately, almost finished Homer's The Odyssey. Enjoyed it so far, haven't read much from Homer or on Greek mythology before.

I'm currently reading 'Original Sin', the book on the Biden's decision to run again and how bad an idea it was. Last thing I read was, I believe, Breakfast Of Champions by Vonnegut. *makes mental note to buy more Vonnegut*

Anyway on the Thrawn side:
Heir to the Empire
Dark Force Rising
The Last Command
Hand of Thrawn Duology:
Specter of the Past
Vision of the Future
An awesome Thrawn prequel:
Outbound Flight
Darth Bane trilogy:
Path of Destruction
Rule of Two
Dynasty of Evil
One final one for you is Darth Plagueis
