Really good. Pick it up whether or not a fan.

If you use Thrawn....must read.

That is all?

That is all.

Read it, or alternatively, get the unabridged audiobook and listen to it.

easily the best Star Wars book I own, and has the advantage of being canon, too...

Just started listening to it. I really enjoyed the old thrawn trilogy, and I'm hoping this one stacks up.

Also, while I can't remember where I heard this, so take it with a grain of salt, but Timothy Zahn is trying to write his current Thrawn trilogy so that it doesn't necessarily negate anything from the old Thrawn trilogy. While the old TT is no longer canon, at least Zahn is attempting to create a cohesive story between his two trilogies.

Yeah this is my current novel. So far so good. I never thought I'd enjoy this after the original one, but it has been great so far (I'm about 1/3 of the way in.)

I think I may be the only person who isn't enjoying it like they thought they would. I feel like Zahn really rushed to complete this book. There's a lack of atmosphere (no pun intended) through most of the story. While I'm glad to see Thrawn back in canon, and I don't necessarily hate it, this book doesn't shine like some of his others involving this character.

:/

I had been hoping that Thrawn was going to try and recruit the Ghost crew the way he tries to recruit the Rebel leader in the novel.

They weren't that ingenious, sadly.

I enjoyed the book.

The first issue of the comic adaptation is even better. Hopefully that holds true through the remaining issues.

I'm glad it contradicts the part in rebels which makes it sound like this Thrawn is as bloodthirsty as a typical Imp commander. Though I find it odd that pretty much every capship that appears in the book is identified by class, both imperial and resistance or pirate, except for the frigates which are never given a class.

Just finished this last night. I thought it was great. I wish I could spoil stuff, but it added a new set of wrinkles that I'm really excited about.

I would recommend James Luceno's Tarkin after reading Thrawn . It's also canon and presents a lot of new content that may be relevant to Armada

The old Thrawn trilogy is da bomb.
