Lit Books Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos Rising

Unfortunately, Zahn didn't say "Thrawn is not now and has never been force sensitive," which means some people are still clinging to the belief that he used to be as a child but isn't anymore.

 

In all likelihood, if there’s going to be any kind of “reveal” regarding the navigators, it’ll be that Thrawn knew one personally growing up and was disheartened that they lost their powers and were cast aside. That’s as far as I see it going.

 

Maybe a family member (niece?)
Cut to that crazy Rebels sequel show rumor

 

If that rumour turns out to be true I think I’d outright Max Cady laugh.

 

I wonder if we might get some more of Thrawn extended family. Does he have children himself.

 

Personally, I’ve had my fill of classic Star Wars villains having secret offspring.

 

Thrawn's only love is the Fleet. Their offspring - successful military campaigns.

 

I'm really excited for this book, I'm currently reading Treason and will be done in a few days but Thrawn is just such an interesting character how can you not want to know more?

 

So he's no family man then, he just in for the fleet and the military. I like it he is close to his rumored niece.

 

Yeah, I'm almost done w/Treason and love it and was hoping for post Rebels stuff but I'm sure it'll be good. I do want to see that though somewhere.

 

I always figured that with the way Rebels ended that they’d follow it up with an animated show and not a Zahn novel. It’s too tightly woven into Filoni’s own saga, so naturally he’ll get first crack.

 

Good point.

 

Posted dryly, with an arched eyebrow

 

My lip twitched wryly reading that.

 

What if he's Force sensitive during the full moon? Or once a year? Or in the presence of certain types of rocks? Clearly Zahn was being intentionally vague to mislead us.

 

Maybe he gets it from ysalamiri. They don't just block it, they siphon it off for Thrawn.

 

Any moment now this thread is going to take a turn for the sardonic.

 

I agree, I said coldly.

 

Can anyone tell me where the Thrawn: Treason thread is?

 

Here it is: https://boards.theforce.net/threads/thrawn-treason-by-timothy-zahn-summer-2019.50050667/

 

Florian from the Jedi-Bibliothek has found out that the Chaos Rising book has slipped FIVE months to October 6th.

Remember the outlook of Darth Guinness.

 

To me that suggests they have a few unannounced books for 2020 and are working on scheduling. We only know of this and the TROS novel. That leaves three books if they follow their typical publishing pattern.
