Lit What are your Star Wars literature resolutions for 2013?

Pretty much I've vowed to not buy anymore post ROTJ EU until I find out if the new movies are gonna screw up the timeline or not.

Not buy any of it unless I can get it secondhand, because book prices in this country are too high to waste my money in case my liking for the fandom evaporates with whatever Disney does.

Finish my novels collection with these books:
Dawn of the Jedi: Into the Void
Rogue Planet
The Clone Wars
The Clone Wars: Wild Space
The Clone Wars: No Prisoners
The Last Jedi
Scoundrels
X-Wing: Rogue Squadron
X-Wing: Wraith Squadron
Vector Prime
Edge of Victory I: Conquest
Edge of Victory II: Rebirth
Dark Journey
Traitor
Inferno
Revelation
Invincible
Conviction
Crucible
Also finish up my Legacy comics collection.

Hmm, if Star Wars writers in general count, I'll pick up Stackpole's final Crown Colonies book, and I'd like to look into some of Hambly's original fiction. And I'll continue to hope that Stover hasn't completely disappeared from the Earth. Speaking of which, has anything more come of the rumor about Stover writing a commando book? If that happens I will pick up a new Star Wars book for the first time in a few years.

Some more I'm thinking of
-Read non Star Wars books from Star Wars authors
-Finish Lost Tribe of the Sith, Revan, Red Harvest, Knight Errant novel and whatever else comes out this year

I didn't like TTT at all; I thought Han and Leia, and to some extent Mara, were written well in it, but that's it.

I liked Vector Prime, although it wasn't my favorite EU novel. I didn't get around to the rest of the series for various reasons; the announcement of the ST has renewed my interest in that era.

The NJO is a great series imo but it is dark. It gets way worse before it gets better. I like it because it is dark and makes you ponder things. This series unlike DNT/LOTF/FOTJ has hope in it. Sure things get messed up but I never lost the feeling that that the good guys would win. After my reading of Vector Prime that was what kept me going.

I absolutely love it without a doubt. It's really dark though, you gotta prepare yourself for something that's completely different than the star wars you're used to, and to me that's a good thing. I like the maturity, not in the fact that it has that darkness, but rather it's taken to the next level and offers something more than just the usual adventure.

It doesn't shirk on death. It makes you think about it. The characters that died has a reason/ purpose etc. It made me realize that we aren't invincible. It also makes you question things. Makes you see that the world is more than just Black and White. There are many shades of grey and that our actions have consequences etc. This is the pinnacle of Star Wars to me.

Start and finish the Bantam era, the NJO, and the Legacy era sometime this year.

*just to try and see if there are any clues to hint at the seventh film/Sequel Trilogy

Mine would be to repurchase Spectre of the Past, lent it to a buddy whom I dont talk to anymore, and to continue reading EU works that are upcoming.

In that case I really do need to get it then

Definitely, I've been on Knight Errant for almost 3 months, Anyway...
Finish all the books up to TFU2, start comics with TotJ and await Episode7 news concerning EU...
EDIT: I almost forgot, get through the Sith inquisitor, Jedi knight, Agent, and trooper storylines on TOR

Non-Star Wars: get through Empires and Barbarians by Peter Heather.

Not really a resolution per se; that leads to despair and guilt if I don't manage it, which leads to the Dark Side. I chiefly plan to try and finish up the first wave of Stackpole's X-Wing novels: I just need to read The Bacta War. Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor is one that I'm particularly curious about. And I want to read Timothy Zahn's book, Allegiance (I know about the reviews, but that's okay, I still want some old school Galactic Civil War action with the Big Three in their absolute prime). Would also like to start up with going through the short stories of The Lost Tribe of the Sith.

I wish I could read faster too, if I could, I would take a nostalgia trip and revisit Heir to the Empire, and juxtapose the feeling of nostalgia and the certainty of 1991 that this was as close to Star Wars VII as I would ever see with the feeling that I will have the happy opportunity to see 2 different versions of how things unfold post-RotJ.

Non-SW books: Memories of Ice (third of Steve Erickson's Malazan series), So Vile a Sin and The Room With No Doors (old Doctor Who novels), and maybe Fire on High (Star Trek: New Frontier) with a more distant maybe in The Wounded Sky (TOS Star Trek). These with short stories scattered throughout, in between: Sherlock Holmes, Robert E. Howard, H.P. Lovecraft. And my continuing read through of the old G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero comics.

I...I...I've never actually read Vector Prime; I was 5 when it came out and after RotS I just never got to it. Of course I knew Chewie died in it due to the Fact Files but that's it. In fact there's a few of the lesser NJO books I need to catch, though Balance Point -- the last one I read -- was a disappointment.

Suffer my way through the last Bane book.

I have absolutely no agenda when it comes to reading. Nothing in 2013 has me excited. I'll probably listen to crucible and scoundrels, but only if I have left over audible credits.

Allow me to chide you as well, Jello.

They are awesome, you need to read them before someone bans you, and they have this unrepentent, campy feel to them that much of the modern EU lacks. After reading them this year I can see exactly why Stover emulated Daley and Smith with Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor.

My resolution is to actually begin to read the EU. Not just the sourcebooks and Wookiepedia, but the novels themselves
