    i thought that TF.N Books had a timeline that you could sort by chronological or release date order. I think it's also available in Lit Forum FAQ. But just to start you off, Heir to the Empire came first in 1991, and Tales of the New Republic came last in 1999. It was either Truce at Bakura or Courtship of Princess Leia that first came after the Last Command, and i think it was TAB.

    Go back even further DaJames. The novelization to ANH came out Dec. 1976. The first printing of Splinter of the Mind's Eye was a Hardcover and it came out Feb. 1978, a paper back came out later that year. 1979 saw Han Solo at Star End and Han Solo's Revenge. 1980 saw Han Solo and the Lost Legacy and the novelization to ESB. 1983 saw The Lando Calrissian Adventures, the novelization to RotJ, and at least one Ewoks children's book. I could continue to give a list by release date, but I won't for two reasons. First, because I don't feel like going and getting my book collection (the old EGtC particulary is useful for this). And second, that's a very long list.

    Could you give me a link to such a list? I must be blind, but I have been sifting through Literature index and couldn't find it there. All the lists I have found so far are in chronological order.

    Wedge's Gamble and The Krytos Trap were definetly also in 1996. The Bacta War was either 12/96 or 1/97. I vaguely recall seeing it in 12/96, but the publishing date is 1/97.

    Also, the publishing date for Tales from Jabba's Palace is also 1/96, but I distinctly remember gett that that for Christmas 1995. So the date for TBW could in fact be 12/96.
