I started reading Labyrinth of Evil on Wednesday after finishing Yoda: Dark Rendezvous on Tuesday. I was thinking about creating a specific spoilers thread so that people who are interested in general reading can still peruse this topic without worrying about spoilers.

Just finished Medstar II, it got better once I got into it. Currently reading The Destroyer 137, with 138 probably next up.
Detachment Delta: Operation Aces Wild (4th in this very good series) up next with Yoda:DR and Survivor's Quest roundign out my stack. My current NRA magazine will probably precede everything else.

Just finished Labyrinth Friday. I won't give any spoilers, but I'll say it is one of the best SW books I have read in while. The ones since NJO ended haven't been some of the best, but I'd put Labyrinth in the top 20 of all time.

I'm reading "DOS For Dummies." Yeah, I'm a hopeless geek. But I'm doing it to prepare for a possible job in the department's computer forensics section. The interviews should be coming up in the next week or two.

Hama, You think you're a geek? I just finished "Cosmos" by Carl Sagan.
Last year I read "A Brief History of Time" by Hawking.
Usually I read Stephen King, but he's gotten wierd in the last few years.

I said Jedi Trial was the worst Star Wars book I had read recently.
I had my appendix taken out Friday night. I did only slightly more than nothing on Saturday, but I've had a lot of time to read since then. Labyrinth of Evil seems to be tying up most of the loose ends if you skipped all the Clone Wars novels, although I'm unclear about what happened to Ventress.

Reviewers on amazon seem to be trashing Jedi Trial as well. I always wait for paperback anyway.

I'm reading Yoda, Dark Rendezvous & its pretty good so far. It explains Count Dooku's background & his relationship with master/ apprentice relationship quite a bit. However, where I'm at in the story right now, it seems to have gone on a tangent, focusing on some force challenged Padawan, named Scout, who makes up with determination what she lacks in force sensitivity. I'm sure it has a point with the story, but its taking forever to get there. Can you say, "RUDY! RUDY! RUDY!" 
Labyrinth of Evil is next on my list!
