I want to say Heir to the Empire, circa 1996/7. I know I got the Wraith books when they were published, and I had read HTTE before then, so I think that's about right.

I'm pretty sure that was back when they were first released, now that I think about.

The first SW book i read was Tales of the Bounty Hunters. I hated it and thought it was the worst book ever. I vowed to never read SW books again. I thought they would all be like that. Then i saw some books called the NJO. I was curious and i ended up breaking my vow. Im glad i did cause i loved it. Well not everything but overall it was good. So now i cant get enough of SW books.

First EU book that I've read was Heir to the Empire. Before that, I remember reading Brooks' The Phantom Menace novelization. Yes.  I was 12 I think.

One of the Jedi Apprentice books when I was about eleven.
I didn't even know they had books about after the saga until last year when my friend lent me her copy of Jedi Search to read.

ANH novelization. (I've got a first edition of the paperback). The first EU book was probably Splinter of the Mind's Eye.
Same here except I know Splinter was the first EU book I read. In fact, it was the only EU book at that time.

Splinter of the Mind's Eye back when it was the only EU around, then the Heirs of the Empire before it became the grandaddy of the modern EU.
