With most of the Expanded Universe declared officially non-canon, the Universe is relatively open and unexplored. Disney publishing along with Lucasarts have announced 20 new stories to fill in some of the details before the new movie is released.

Some love all the extra background material, while others never bothered. Are there any of the EU stories that you felt made for a better setting overall, and why? What might they do better this time around?

    Anything written for EU by Timothy Zahn was quite good. Above mentioned Thrawn trilogy, Hand of Thrawn duologu, Outbound Flight + Survivor's Quest. The rest, well... Mostly average.

    Still, it will be miles ahead of anything Disney will come up with.
