Alex DamonHOST
We have a great time every year.
Alex DamonHOST
This past year, I got to moderate one of the author panels with Greg Keys, Kevin Anderson, Ashley Poston, Michael Stackpole, Madeline Rue, and Timothy Zahn.
Alex DamonHOST
So that was a lot of fun.
Mollie DamonHOST
That was a good panel.
Alex DamonHOST
It was cool to have someone like two authors who just had books come out.
Mollie DamonHOST
And a lot of people ask questions about their stuff.
Alex DamonHOST
But we literally had Timothy Zahn, who there were Star Wars books before him, but he kicked off the EU that we know and love today.
Alex DamonHOST
So we had him all the way to the newest Star Wars books represented there.
Jared MaysHOST
So we got an unabridged audiobook that's coming in November.
Jared MaysHOST
Unabridged audiobook for Choices of One by Timothy Zahn.
Jared MaysHOST
This is the Mara Jade sequel to Allegiance with the 501st Legion.
Jared MaysHOST
So the paperback released last November, but they're getting caught up on the audiobooks.
19 MINS LATER
Jared MaysHOST
That is correct.
Jared MaysHOST
Number two.
Jared MaysHOST
Mara Jade was originally introduced in the short story, Handoff, written by Timothy Zahn as the former Emperor's Hand.
Jared MaysHOST
Mara Jade's introduction, her first piece of Legends media, it was Handoff by Timothy Zahn.
Craig McFarlandHOST
Because then you get so many different...
Craig McFarlandHOST
I mean, like Timothy Zahn, who goes and creates all these new characters that are now sort of coming back into canon, depending on where it's at.
Craig McFarlandHOST
But the ability to be able to do that and expand the story, I think, has just made the connection to the fans become so much more real.
Craig McFarlandHOST
Because it doesn't seem like there's some...
HannahHOST
yeah but that that was honestly i feel like i'm starting backwards that was the very end of my dragon con weekend i actually did get to do some fun things at dragon con um one of which and i was telling jacob that he was going to be so jealous because they did a whole star wars authors panel at dragon con and And it was lots of fun.
HannahHOST
I did feel kind of bad, though, because I felt like probably 85% of it was focused on Timothy Zahn.
HannahHOST
And I was like, you have all of these other authors up here.
HannahHOST
Two who just wrote books that just came out.
JacobHOST
So I'm going to let Hannah just keep going.
HannahHOST
Okay.
HannahHOST
It was Timothy Zahn, Kevin J. Anderson.
HannahHOST
Oh,
Austin WalkerHOST
Right.
Rob ZacnyHOST
Like, again, Timothy Zahn re- like, obeys that scrupulously in the Era of the Empire trilogy, right?
Austin WalkerHOST
Yeah.
Rob ZacnyHOST
But he finds interesting arcs that are specific to the characters for each of these people to, to go off and do so that you get, like, Luke being off alone with his thoughts or being off with, like, Mara and Card.
Samira AhmedHOST
And British cinemas were showing, God, a very macho, Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven, Patriot Games with Harrison Ford, Lethal Weapon 3, and David Fincher's Alien 3.
Graham Kibble-WhiteHOST
And the best-selling hardbacks included Diana: Her True Story by Andrew Morton, of course, Domes of Fire by David Eddings, Dark Force Rising by Timothy Zahn, The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Antonia Fraser, and Gerald's Game by Stephen King.
Samira AhmedHOST
God, Henry VIII and his six wives.
Samira AhmedHOST
They can't get enough of that.
Van Allen PlexicoHOST
Walt came to the, um ...
Van Allen PlexicoHOST
I, I moderated for Timothy Zahn, who wrote a bunch of Star, who writes a bunch of Star Wars books.
John RingerHOST
Mm-hmm.
Van Allen PlexicoHOST
Let me just say, Timothy Zahn, one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet.
Van Allen PlexicoHOST
He couldn't have been more gracious.
John RingerHOST
I've, I've read a bunch of his stuff.
Bryan YoungGUEST
Yeah, so each graphic novel is 66 pages.
Bryan YoungGUEST
So the first one was written by Mike and I together with a guest story by Timothy Zahn and one by Sam Maggs.
Bryan YoungGUEST
And then the second one is written by me entirely.
Bryan YoungGUEST
And the third one is written by Mike.
Dan HartlandHOST
likewise, as we always try and do in this show, talk a little bit about how reviewers, critics, readers of any kind might be able to approach popular fiction like with, you know, and get a bit more out of it.
Dan HartlandHOST
So I thought we could start with you, Elektra, because you came to me with this review of the new book from Timothy Zahn.
Dan HartlandHOST
No one else asked to read this book.
Dan HartlandHOST
OK, which I think is part of this conversation.
Dan HartlandHOST
Talk to me a bit about Timothy Zahn.
Dan HartlandHOST
I mean, you go into this in the review, but let's go through it here to your history with him.
Dan HartlandHOST
Why you're why you're interested in reading him, the sort of stuff he does.
Dan HartlandHOST
Yeah, let's go into it.

I read the Timothy Zahn trilogy that was – that I guess was the – Publicized as the official trilogy sequel.

God, I wish they adapted those instead.
Jono LoganHOST
And a bunch of other work.
