This week we look at the first chapter of Timothy Zhan’s classic novel Heir to the Empire. This is the book that really kicked off the expanded universe. There were Star Wars novels before this of course, but they adaptations of the movies or direct tie ins…and they were all released within a few months of the premieres. When Heir to the Empire was released there had been any Star Wars books in print since the early eighties, it shot to the top of the New York Times Bestseller List and stayed there for months.
It really did change Star Wars in profound ways.
I can’t recommend this book (and its two sequels) enough.
The Thrawn Trilogy:
- Heir to the Empire
- Dark Force Rising
- The Last Command
