star wars legends ➝ the new jedi order
"The only power I have – the only power any of us have – is to be who we are. That's what I'm going to do here. Be who I am." "You're not making any sense! How old are you? Seventeen? Eighteen? You don't even really know who you are!" "I don't have to know. All I have to do is decide," Jacen answered serenely. "Choose, and act."

Was anyone gonna tell me that there was honestly a real legitimate possibility that several members of the NJO were swapped out with clones and that the 'It was Jaacen all along' joke by Timothy Zhan might have been spot on?
#star wars#sw#star wars eu#star wars legends#njo#new jedi order#the biggest shocker is that these clones werent all named like luuke skywalker than anything else

I can't help but think Millennials vs the vong would be a really funny dark comedy skit
The vong: and now you will be the ultimate sacrifice
Millennials: *finally* something to give my life purpose
The vong: all life is pain
Millennials, getting off a 12 hour shift from 2 jobs: you're preaching to the choir bestie

The Unifying Force - James Luceno
Star Wars: The New Jedi Order book 19
Reread: Jan 2024
The finale!! Luceno really popped off with this book wow. So much action. The big battles were sometimes so confusing because there was a lot going on but it all came together at the end. It starts with the scales tipping in favour of the bad guys, like really badly, but the living planet really saves their asses. Nothing like religious turmoil to ruin what should have been a victorious battle. The good guys rally and bring the fight to the Coruscant system, where Zonama Sekot has made its glorious apperance. Troops are landed on Coruscant to retake it, including the Skywalkers and the Solo twins. The way Luke goes into a Force trance and just murders his way to the Yuuzhan Vong throne room is wild. Same goes for Jacen who becomes a conduit for so much pure Force energy that he ages five years in minutes. But he also just fucks up the power behind the throne guy so hard that way. Lots of weird Force things here to go through which I enjoyed.
And let's not forget the Galactic Alliance deploying biological weapons against the Yuuzhan Vong. Some of the government wanted to genocide their way out of the war. Sadly this turned into a weapon against the good guys when the Yuuzhan Vong realized that Zonama Sekot's life was genetically similar and thus susceptible to the agent. Luckily it didn't all end in tragedy.
The war is won and Zonama Sekot reveals that it's the child of the real Yuuzhan'tar (not Coruscant, but the actual homeworld of the Yuuzhan Vong) and it claims it's wayward children? Siblings? Anyways, it wants to rehabilitate the Yuuzhan Vong and reconnect them to the Force, since Yuuzhan'tar cut them off from it when it exiled them for being evil.
It was a fitting end to the series. Tragic on lots of levels. But our heroes overcame many, many hardships to get to the end and most came out stronger. And Leia realizing she needed to formally finish her Jedi training, but that's in the next book(s) I just like it a lot haha. I think many people were hoping for a more crushing victory against the Yuuzhan Vong, but I think this way made more sense. And involved a lot less slaughter. Three cheers for the Galactic Alliance! Now to pick up the pieces.
Info: Del Rey; 2003

Clearly, you haven’t been introduced to “An Apology”, Timothy Zahn’s magnum opus. I can’t seem to find a copy, but for the uninitiated, it’s a satirical short story from Luuuke’s perspective where basically everyone is a clone with increasingly ridiculous names, and all of galactic history from the Thrawn Trilogy to Fate of the Jedi is actually done by these clones rather than the originals. It was an April Fool’s Day story for 2012, you can also find it in the last FOTJ book. It’s hilarious, I highly recommend it. Legends was also goofy and very 90s and camp at times, and it was self aware about it sometimes too. Canon vs Legends arguments always cover the same half dozen points and none of them are ever described accurately, it drives me insane. While I’m here: NJO being convoluted and long isn’t a good reason for legends to be worse than canon, because the high republic is even longer and more convoluted, it’s just easier to read because it’s in the process of being released. Canon hasn’t respected the new books’ lore any more than legends did the old ones’, there’s a new retcon every time a show drops atp.
I love The High Republic and NJO alike. Legends and canon both have highs, lows, strengths, and weaknesses. If we all just consume the media we like we’ll be happier for it
people in the star wars fandom: the sequels are so dumb and stupid i miss the eu, which was badass and cool and not stupid
the eu:
#Star Wars#Star Wars legends#Star Wars canon#Star Wars EU#Timothy Zahn#an apology#the high republic#the#the new jedi order#NJO#canon v legends discourse is so 2014#and as a self-proclaimed legends lore ‘scholar’ who is also queer and born after 2000 I see the appeal of both lmao

Coming in just a few weeks! Credit to my friend Skooma Joe for the wonderful illustration.
This documentary has been a passion project of mine, as well as a mini dream-come-true, as I've gotten the chance to speak at length with the authors of my favorite series. This documentary features every author, talking about every book, and discussions about the Force and cultural influences and characters goes in such depth that I hope it will prove the definitive companion to the series. Coming soon, will post on my YouTube, and also in audio format on Archive.org.

A Discussion
Jaina Solo: Give me a lightsaber and an X-wing fast enough, and I shall save the galaxy.
Anakin Solo: Give me a call, and I shall save the galaxy.
Jacen Solo: Give me a fulcrum and my strength, and I will try to save the galaxy.
Jaina Solo: And who’s gonna save the galaxy from you, Jacen? Me?

Alema’s story…was tragic.
You don’t want to see your sister being disintegrated in front of you. You don’t want to see the friends you’ve just met and become acquainted with got perished in a mission that you’ve come along. You don’t want to see the devastation of a relentless species continuing their conquest in the galaxy. You won the war eventually, but the price is high. You’ve payed your sanity.
What would another war do to you, Alema Rar? Will you ever again see the light?
Alema Rar: Jedi Knight, Dark Jedi
