Help
Traitor is well worth the read and is the best book in the entire 20 some odd book series. The only problem is it is in the later half of the series. It's actually one of my favorite Star Wars books.
Star Wars books range from paper for starting fires to Keep displayed on the book shelf for later reads. The problem is finding the the latter.

The Vong start off pretty lame, but they do get a lot more interesting later on and develop some character and backstory. Although Traitor is the best book by far (what I'd imagine a Steven Erikson-penned Star Wars book to be), you also need to read Star by Star, which is the major central turning point of the series.

Yes, the comic miniseries are the memories of some of the characters affected.

Please excuse me for this, but; Reading something as serialized as Star Wars novels seems (ALMOST) even worse than reading Terry G.
(Not as bad, because you might have a good reading experience from SW, while Tarry is both a bad read and you're funding evil-doers.)

Yeah, I finished the boxed set, and all I can say is: Product. I really wanted to like them, but....Product.
OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

Traitor was awesome, some of the others are decent. Some however are just crap. It's worth reading though, just because finally in the EU things happen to major film characters.
I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you.
