Onto the third Rogue Squadron book and I seriously wonder if Michael Stackpole is the Graham McNeill of Star Wars. He's held in extremely high regard, but frankly he had contemporaries back in Legends (though maybe not actually quite the same period) who could write rings around him in terms of prose, and a pretty large portion of the new canon's writers too.
To be clear, I'm leaving out the character stuff here, and just focusing on the writing itself.
I get that people love how much detail he puts into his starfighter action, but it gets to the point that much of the time, I'd rather skip the bit where Corran presses the paddle to move the etheric rudder, pulls on the control yoke etc and just have him take the damn X-Wing into a dive. Yes it's rich in detail, but it also pulls me out of the moment. Everything seems to happen in slow-mo, and therefore I feel a million miles away from the fast-paced combat which the heroes are actually experiencing. Sometimes I'd just like things to play out a little more directly.
But then Stackpole seems allergic to phrasing anything directly at times, or slimming down his word-count. It's very very easy to imagine Wedge asking Pash why he wants to trade a nippy little A-Wing for an X-Wing - wouldn't that slower speed drive him crazy? But no, Wedge has to tell Pash that A-Wings are faster than X-Wings, and more manoeuvrable, and only then can we get to the question which actually matters. Time and again there's the option to couch information in a manner that's characterful and doesn't just amount to characters bluntly stating stuff to one another, so the reader definitely gets it.
Put that together with metaphor, which in his hands is a great big heavy electrohammer which he swings with incredible force and turns nuance to dust, and it all becomes a bit "WE GET IT."
Actually, I'm not sure Stackpole trusts his readers at all, given how heavily loaded the books are with reminders of past events. As if I could ever forget the book in which the Otterfuckening happened...

"Aspyr has brought back all of these brilliant Star Wars games: Jedi Academy, Episode 1 racer, OG Battlefront 1 and 2, republic commando and the KOTOR games." A sigh escapes his mouth. "Now I believe I speak for countless star wars fans when I ask this." He takes a deep breath. "When will the Rogue Squadron Trilogy get this treatment?"

Patty Jenkins Back at Lucasfilm?
Patty Jenkins is claiming she is back at Lucasfilm working on her film Star Wars: Rogue Squadron. If you remember, back in 2020 Lucasfilm announced that the Wonder Woman director would be helming a new Star Wars film titled Star Wars: Rogue Squadron. Lucasfilm released an official teaser for the film, which featured Jenkins talking about what she hoped to accomplish and why she wanted to create a…

One of my fav things about star wars is that's its so fucking huge that u physically cannot know all of it so u just kinda like pick a section amd become obsessed. Like me with the Chiss. Like i have seen only one other fandom come even close to this amd that's Marvel. I have no idea y. And we all still bond over the skywalker saga (not the ones that shan't be spoken). And its like we all know a bit of each other sections. Like clone fans know a bit about ahsoka. Ahsoka fans know a bit about the Rebels fans. Rebels fans know about Thrawn. Thrawn fans know some deep shit about Padmes handmaiden and wild space yokels. And it pretty much goes on forever and i find that very cool.
#and its also like u cant just say u like canon or u like legends#bc they r both HUGE#like what legends era r u talking about hug#the old republic#the Luke skywalker era#that after Luke skywalker ere#with that cad skywalker dude#or do u like rogue squadron getting personally fucked up b Ysanne Isard#or the Chiss parts#with Mara#U just cant specify legends or canon#star wars#marvel#skywalker saga#clones#ahsoka tano#star wars ahsoka#sw rebels#star wars rebels#grand admiral thrawn#padme amidala#eli vanto#wild space
