    I have started to like wraith squadron more than I did in book 5. My heart will always be with rogue squadron

    I liked the X-wing Series. Rogue and Wraith Squads are so different, I can't pick a favorite.


    But, this thread has been done several times in the last few days I believe.

    The X-Wing series is one of my favorite series in all of SW. I like the Rogues better, but i'm starting to like the Wraiths more now than I did in the past that and i'm re-reading the series for the 5th time.

    I think your right Darth, I think your right.

    I've re-read the Wraith books in preparation for Allston's NJO series, but haven't yet re-read the Rogues.

    However, my favorite memory of them is how surprised I was a their enjoyability. The topic at first sounded really blah to me, but thankfully, a friend convinced me otherwise.

    Erisi Dlarit is also one of my favorite bad guys/(girls)and Pash Cracken is the one character I wish would have been more drawn upon (I'm an A-wing person)

    Tyria is cool. I think Kell is cool. I will always like Corran and Mirax though.

    Yeah, it's been done before, but I live for these topics! I LOVE the X-wing books. The only thing I've liked more was TTT. The only thing I really didn't like was how MAS killed Lujayne, of all the Rogues, off in the first book. Yeah, I know why it was done, but it doesn't mean I have to like it.

    I know how everyone is always going off on Corran being invincible but when he escapes from Isards little torture center was just great. I loved every minute of that. I've read some of the wraith books, but (although Janson is hillarious) they just can't replace the Rogues.

    I enjoyed the whole X-wing series, but I was impressed with Allston's books overall. I felt he gave the characters more of a background than Mike Stackpole did, although they are both superb authors. I thought that The Bacta War was Stackpole's best book. Starfighters of Adumar was Allston's best book.

    The characters were unique and different from Han, Luke, Leia, Chewie, and the regulars. We got to read about a new set of people and share their adventures. Although I was kind of ticked off that Ton Phanan died :(

    I want to see Allston write Plourr. Now that would kick ass.
