Did everyone hear about the Force Unleashed novel and graphic novel coming this summer? Any word on an author?

Hey, I wanted to ask the book people....where would be a good place to start to get in to the books? The Thrawn trilogy? Something else?

IMO
1) Shadows of the Empire.
2) Kyle Kurton trilogy.
3) Jedi academy trilogy
4) Thrown trilogy
5) Current 9 book series. But thats just me.

I have started reading Shadows of the Empire and loving it so far. Can't hardly put in down. But I was just kind of wondering how many people read the books that chronologically took place before the movies. I would like to do my best to read them in chronological (timewise) order. I am kind of neurotic about things like that. Anyway, thanks for the help and the suggestions already happy

Hey ,Just wanted to tell everyone that I'm about 80% finished with Death Troopers.
It is a bit more on the Horror/Zombie level then on a Star Wars level but it is a interesting read.
There is a very surprising cameo in it that I dint see coming.
The level of detail is really good.
" She reached into the hole in is abdomen and moved the strand's of mussel like warm ,wet piece's of yarn."
Looking forward to finishing it.

Eric

finished death troopers..I liked it... the first half was a little slow but the second part was interesting...it did feel like more of a horror book than star wars..but good read..
