Thrawn, Wedge Antilles, Lando, and Han are and have been my favouritely-written EU characters. Janson's been really good, too, as have way too many Wraiths and Rogues.

Corran is the bomb. I like Jaina too. Thrawn was the perfect villian and definently a favorite. Wedge is great as is Han. I love Han's humor in most of the stories. I like Anakin Solo......but well we know what happened to him (I wont say because that might spoil something for someone.)

Yes Fett has rather ... interesting taste in EU novels.

My favorites (unranked):

Garm Bel Iblis
Palleon
Thrawn
Daala
Mara Jade
Corran Horn
Tycho Celchu
Booster Terrik
Ysanne Isard
Borsk Fey'la

And just to spite Marcus ... CALLISTA!! Bahaha! I loved that character (though I admit I only read Children of the Jedi, not her second appearance).

I really liked the alien with the tail who hooked up with Han Solo in Hero's Trial, but I can't think of his name right now.

Jaina Solo is pretty interesting. Haven't read enough to call her a favorite, yet.

Mara Jade

I basically read to follow the adventures of the OT characters. With those characters my favorites are;
1. Luke
2. Han
3. Lando (He's been vastly underused.)

As for EU based characters my favorites have been;
1. Mara
2. Thrawn
3. Anakin
4. Wedge

Least Favorite
1. Kyp
2. Jacen (The wussified NJO Jacen, the Young Jedi Knights version was a fun kid.)
3. Corran the Luke Clone Horn
4. Calista (Because everyone hates her, well almost everyone.)

*blinks* How can anyone like Borsk Fey'lya? Oh well, everyone's entitled to their opinion.

ReaperFett
Jul 27th, 2002, 07:24:17 PM
I like him by disliking him, if you see my meaning

Jedi Master Carr
Jul 27th, 2002, 10:38:29 PM
Personally I don't think Corran is that much like Luke, I think he is closer to Han's personality, a gambler type person, now I have never read the X-Wing novels and I mainly basing this off I, Jedi and the NJO but he just seems a lot different than Luke to me.

ReaperFett
Jul 28th, 2002, 05:19:57 AM
I see him different to Luke, and dislike Jedi COrran because he's too good. I used to like him though.

Jedi Master Carr
Jul 28th, 2002, 03:16:01 PM
Well I just got done reading I, Jedi so that is why I think I started to like him, I find him a very interesting character too bad they haven't done a great job with him in the NJO, except for the Dark Tide Duology.

ReaperFett
Jul 28th, 2002, 03:29:17 PM
DT being strangely enough the Stackpole ones. I mean, the guy IS Corran ;)

I like Corron. He is cool as hell in I, Jedi.

Sene Unty

I think Jacen redeamed himself in the new NJO book Traitor. He was very cool in the book. They seemed to flesh him out a lot more. Hell the whole book was about him!

I dont think Corran is anything like Luke. He is a very confident person, while at the same time very critical of himself. I think anyone who as read I, Jedi would agree. That book rocked!!! Oh and I agree with Fett....Corran is Stackpole. No one else can write him.

I actually like Borsk Fey'lya. He is someone you can love to hate.

Personally, I am enjoying the direction the NJO is going in. At first it was just okay, but now they seem to be focusing on the characters more than big outrageous stories. Everyone seems more real (like Jaina and Jacen....hell even Kyp.)

1. Mara Jade
2. Corran Horn
3. Lando (<---So not underused...a third of The New Rebellion was centered around him...)
4. Talon Karrde
5. Jaina
6. Garm Bel Iblis
7. Thrawn
8. Noghri (<---They're all pretty much the same, but I liked Ruhk...)
9. Palleon
10. Kyp...

Two things:

One, I thought Darksaber was a horrible book, mainly because it killed off Madine and had one of the most godawful endings I've ever seen in my life...(actually, Kevin J. Anderson's books are pretty good, minus the one he and his wife wrote for Starcraft...*shudder*)

Two, the NJO jumps around too much, I think...all those books...O_o )

Oh, yeah, I think Mazzic and Booster Terrik are cool, too...

Aye, can't forget Booster. And his red Star Destroyer, lol.

Mi favorite EU character is Mr. Dash Rendar from Shadows of the Empire. I don't think he got the face time he deserved , but he was cool none the less.

I consider Wedge to be a EU character, yes he appeared in the OT, but he was not developed. So he is my favorite character.

But for you purists out there, my favorite EU born and breed character has to be Garik Loran.


You can tell I loved the X-wing series. My favorite books of all time.

I love Tahiri, Anakin, Jagged Fel, Vergere, Jaina, Jason, Tenel Ka, pretty much all the kids. It's so cool to have seen their whole story and gotten to see how they grow up.

Yeah def...definitely love the whole Jaina and Fel thing. I hope Jason hooks up with Tenel and not Danni, that scientist lady. She's cool and all, it's just the little thing between Tenel and Jason is cute.

Corran Horn and Kyp are the best. They show two sides of the same coin. Kyp shows Jedi possibilities, while Corran shows how a Jedi should act (well at times)

PS: How is that the good Captain gets around so much?
