I blew threw most of this book on the flight back from Ft. Lauderdale on Sat then finished it up last night. Zahn has been one of my favorite authors in the SW universe, and this lastest book definitely holds up. It's interesting because while writing it he had to tread a fine line since the book isn't directly involved in the NJO series but does take place after it... so he goes out of his way to only vaguely reference NJO type items. Did Zahn create Thrawn? I can't remember however that character has an influence that has stretched through so many books... and once again his actions have affected this book.
Zahn's next book apparently is a prequel to most of the books out, and deals specifically with the Outbound Flight project... what happened, etc.... I don't know that I'm particularly interested in it... though am curious at least about the last portion of the Flight and what created the feelings the current survivors have.
Anyway Zahn's book is as his usual level...
I haven't heard any murmurings of what's next in the SW book line as in new timeline stuff though... at least Zahn has clearly said he's doing the Outbound Flight story and that's it.
