That is my question they have killed off two major characters in NJO and a couple of minor ones so will they kill somebody else? I am guessing Lando will die before its over but other that I am clueless

Hmmm
Well, so far, we have had four. Elgos was to show the Vong aren't peaceful, and Borsk was to show the fall of the NR. So the two that weren't reason-related are close to Han. I can't see another dying, so I'd say that Kyp, Lando, Wedge and the family are safe.
I have a theory that Gavin will die, meaning that Jaina, Jag and Kyp are Rogues, with one of them as lead. That is possible

Chewie died to save Anakin.
Anakin died to distract the majority of the Yuuzhan Vong soldiers so his comrades could escape.
Those sound like reasons to me :)
Jag would NEVER join Rogue Squadron while that Chiss female is around. She'd smack the crap out of him and straighten him out if he ever tried.
My guess for the next major character would be another Solo twin, but that might not be true. Another guess would be Nom Anor. He's a major character in NJO and he has to die sooner or later.

Wait didn't Jacen die in Dark Journey? I'm about halfway through it, and it gave me the impression Jacen died in it, what with that little Force outburst of his...

I don't think he is dead but that is my opinion, I think Leia is right about it mostly because I don't think a major character would die offscreen like that.

Might be right there. Most MC's die in full view.

We find out what happened to Jacen in "NJO: Traitor" which takes place the same time that Dark Journey does.
Personally, I don't think he died. He might've shut himself off to the Force.

Maybe he fell to the darkside? Jainia keeps having this dream of fighting her brother and would be ironic if Jacen did fall since he is the one who doesn't want to use the force.

Maybe in Traitor Jacen becomes a Yuuzhan Vong?
You never know. They might have that kind of knowledge. Hell, look what they did to Tahiri!

Didn't she already die? I think it says she did in Essentail Guide to Characters.

So DT, what are the origins of this deep hate for Callista? :)

What was that EU book with the Eye of Palpatine? Planet of Twilight?
I hated her for stealing Luke from Mara Jade. I hate her for being the single worst character written. I hate her for being something Barbara Hambley made up!!
I hates it!!!!! I hates it forever!!!!!

She was in "Children of the Jedi"
I've read over 30 EU novels, but that was the worst one I ever purchased. Well, that and Truce at Bakura.

But . . . . but . . . . what about The Crystal Star?
Now THAT is the worst!
One word: Waru.

Let me finish Starfighters of Adumar, the second and third book of the Black Fleet crisis, and the Corellian trilogy. Then I'll read Crystal Star and Planet of Twilight. I'm saving the worst for last :)

I just finished Truce at Bakura. I liked it. Gariel was quite cool.
I thinka lot of the time, the book isnt bad, its just that its SW. PoT wasnt AWFUL, but was just dull, and noone except the droids felt written well(But the image of Jabba chasing someone round with a stick was classic :)).
My least favourite was the Bounty Hunter Wars trilogy. Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Kuat of Ku.......

Children of the Jedi is probably the worst received EU book, and my least favorite. I wish we'd get more anthologies, those were some of my favorites.

Landos one of my favorite characters. If they do anything to him, I'm going to go apeshit on every NJO author.

EVERY? Bit harsh there :)
I dont think he will, for one reason. Those who used him the most(Salvatore, Denning) did it because they love Lando. So basically, without them two, Lando would have done nowt. They wouldnt kill off someone like that.

I read Traitor. Luke kicks the bucket. :)

He does? Wow! Ahnk you're so smart.
Even though the whole book is about Jacen Solo with probably just a few mentions of Luke.

They can't really kill Luke. They have to let him get into his "dark side" with Ben.
"When I was your age I had to walk 5 miles in the snow in Obi Wan's pajamas to the Jedi Council... up hill! Both ways! You've got it lucky... I don't see the Empire anywhere? Huh? Uh. Thats because I killed em for all you ungrateful little bastards... and then the New Republic abandons the Jedi and decides they can do fine without them... and then Leia put me in a home! Damn that woman! Don't see her putting Han in a home, and he's always 'Chewie! Chewie!' like a darned crazy man!"
(Attendent) "Mr. Skywalker it's time for your nap..."
"I don't need no frickin nap! I'm a Jedi Master damnit! I could kill you all! I will kill you all!"
(Attendant)*shoots Luke with a tranquilizer and watches him fall asleep*
