    Just rolling two questions into one thread so I take up less space and time...

    1. Are the eBooks from the NJO-series worth purchasing/reading? I'm fine sitting in a nice chair or on the couch reading even the worst of Star Wars novels, but sitting at the computer and reading doesn't seem nearly as enticing to me. Any input would be appreciated as the first eBook is next in the timeline for me.

    2. What NJO book does the Jedi Council come back in? Just curious as I was having a discussion about it with a friend this past weekend. Thanks!

    1. You can get (some of) them in the paperbacks.
    2. Destiny's Way.

    Where might I find 'Recovery' or 'Ylesia' in paperback form? Del-Ray's website says it's an eBook and Amazon.com only provides the eBook version for sale as well. But in any case, IF these aren't available in paperback, which has been true so far, are the eBooks worth it? I recall that Troy Denning's books weren't too bad, but I've not heard of Walter Williams....

    Recovery - in the paperback of Star by Star
    Ylesia - supposed to be in the paperback of Destiny's Way, forgot to put it in the paperback of Destiny's Way, will be in the paperback of The Joiner King, can be downloaded from starwars.com

    For the record, Ylesia was an awesome read.

    You can download Ylesia for free from TOS. I'm sure someone greater than I will be able to provide a link for you.

    Not that I'm making any pretence of greatness here, though...

    Seeing as you'll be reading Star by Star soon enough anyway, yeah, go for it.

    Alright cool. I take it Star by Star is great? That seems to be the general concensus around these sectors... ;)

    If you have a PDA, they make reading ebooks much more enjoyable. I have almost all my star wars books in ebook form, and it's great being able to carry around 60 or so books in my pocket.
