in seriousness, i hope krayt is an unknown too...

I also hope this series gets declared non-canonical as well, simply because I feel like it's a recycled storyline = Sith defeat Jedi, Jedi have one last hope, last hope wins, Sith survive...repeat.

That's just me though


Well, the old recycled storyline seems to have a lot of people that enjoy it. happy Besides, it is the same but it is also very different. It isn't just one or two really bad people + Mass of faceless villians vs. Single Jedi hero and his companions. There are several different factions that all bring to their table their own individual hopes for the direction of the galaxy.

I could totally see Krayt=Anaakin working, great idea to whoever came up with it (I'm lazy to check!).


Well, whoever Darth Krayt is, he is NOT a Palpatine supporter. So many lines here and there, by Krayt and his followers, show how they much they do NOT want to do it Palpatine's way and repeat his mistakes. Almost like Kray must have known the guy...

Guys it is so obvious. Who had the best opportunity to end the Skywalker line. Not Hett, not Palpatine, not Kanos, not Vos but non other then OBI-WAN KENOBI. He could have ended it all on Mustafar, but didn't. Now after years of watching the Jedi be made into jokes and Luke not able to control the order he has taken on physical form. He has secretly collected the remains of all the Jedi killed during Order 66 and needs to Cade to restore them back to life so he can restart the old order. It is really the only thing that makes any sense!

Give it a rest. Thrawn's dead. tongue




As for recycled...

Have we seen a hereditary empire before?
Have we seen a benevolent emperor before?
Have we seen a credible rival to the throne before?

Well, gee, it turns out the series isn't recycled after all. happy

... then it's a shockingly terrible pile of moose turds.

I dunno if it's a total rehash, though. It draws pretty blatantly from the prequels, but the story's been so random and haphazard that I honestly can't predict what'll happen next.

Aside from Luke kicking it in Sacrifice.

I'm sure the unpredictability has more to due with the three authors being unable to read the previous author's finished book before having to submit their own.

Yeah, I see your points about it being not completely rehash. I only mean it in the context of Jedi/Sith. I feel like All Luke's work (which was the BIG storyline for alot of books) restoring the Jedi order was a bit undermined in this series. However, you are quite right, there are a myriad of differences and it is quite exciting.
