    Hello people, I am 27-year old guy from Prague, Czech republic, semi - professional journalist and great fan of the Orginal trilogy. I am not Prequel hater exactly, but I simply have no urge to see those films unlike OT. I am also not EU reader, but after the Disney aquisition, I gave myself a little marathon consisting of Secret history of Star Wars, Thrawn trilogy and Luceno´s Darth Plagueis novel. and currently I am watching closely news about Episode VII, which I am using also as material for my articles.

    Welcome Miras-Etrin! :)

    Giving a little marathon of SW? How long did you need for all those books? It would have taken me ages and it sounds that you just needed a few days to a few weeks. ;)

    Enjoy your stay! :)

    Thank you! Well I think it was about two months in total. In "History" I was kinda skipping many pages dealing with the some production details, but the real stories I´ve been reading normally.

    Two months... not bad! :D

    So you had one (or two or three) of those "summary-books"? I like those. Lots of short stories and many details. Easy to read inbetween. :)

    No, I was just talking that when reading Kaminski´s book I skipped details of Lucas dealings with studio, vacation or long summaries of how was Anakin suppsedly old in the original concept and how it had to be changed. After that I simply read those four mentioned EU books.

    Oh, I think we are talking about the same books. I just named them wrong (being at my mobile phone and looking up the right word would have taken too much time ;) ). I meant the books that speak about the background stuff as well as those that are like dictionaries. Or let me say "everything but novels" :p - ok that doesn't fit perfectly as well, since that would include comics, too. But I think you get the big picture. ;) :)

    Btw that Kaminski book looks really interesting. Need to save it on my "to buy list". ;)
