It depends where you want to start? Do you have a favourite character for instance?<BR>Otherwise buy the 3 books in the Thrawn Trilogy and start picking up all the New Jedi Order books.

Theforce.net has a comprehensive books section. Go there for more info. And also, don't read every one. Some really aren't worth it.

I orignally found Cloak of Deception slow and boring so I put it down for a long time. When I got back into it though it began to get interesting with the bits of Palpatine setting up his power base. I like it when hinted at things are revealed.<P>Clone Wars: Shatterpoint novel is out now too.
