Star Wars Novels

Star Wars novels. This is the mega-list of Star Wars novels in chronological order within the Star Wars Universe. I still consider these to be canon and consider all Disney Star Wars to be bad fanfic.

My personal focus on these books was everything from Star Wars - later called A New Hope - forward.

Synopsis (may contain spoilers)

Leia tries to convince the troubled New Republic that there is a threat to their (and the galaxy's) existence in the Yuuzhan Vong. The Jedi investigate planets that have fallen to the enemy while the military take it upon themselves to do some investigating also. Leia, the Jedi and many refugees end up making a stand on Dantooine before making their escape. They finally "convince" the New Republic that the threat is real.

With unsurprising action and imagination, New York Times bestselling Author Machael A. Stackpole continues The New Jedi Order with DARK TIDE I: ONSLAUGHT, testing the heroes pf the past along with the next generation of Jedi against fearsome enemies from beyond the galactic rim...

It is a perilous time for the New Republic. Just when unity is needed most, mistrust is on the rise. Even the Jedi feel the strain, as rogue elements rebel against Luke Skywalker's leadership. When alien invaders known as the Yuuzhan Vong strike without warning, the New Republic is thrown on the defensive.

Luke must weild all the awesome powers of a Jedi Master to defeat the gravest threat since Senator Palpatine. A Leia Organa Solo and Gavin Darklighter lead desperate refugees in a fighting retreat from Yuuzhan Vong forces, Mara Jade Skywalker, Jedi apprentices Jacen and Anakin Solo, and Jedi Knight Corran Horn find themselves tested as never before by a faceless, implacable foe determined to smother the light of the New Republic forever beneath a shroud of darkest evil...
