8 Parts of theStar WarsExpanded Universe That Should Have Stayed Canon

Now that we ’ve seen Star Wars : The Force Awakens , we ’ve also been attend how a galaxy far , far away has interchange from what had been put together by hundreds of authors over the last two ten . As we ’ve learn a trivial more about the newfangled world that exists post - RotJ , it ’s clean that there ’s more than a little inspiration from the survive material .

Here are just a few of what has stayed the same : the Republic is nominate , Luke tried to restart the Jedi order , Han and Leia got married and had a tiddler who then turn to the Dark Side , and the Empire stay to hang on in split remnants . But there could still be more ! Here are some stories from the Expanded world that could certainly be brought into the new persistence with little - to - no fuss and which could still perhaps support the unexampled trilogy .

Starship Test 9

Darth Plagueis by James Luceno

There ’s a new rumor float around that Supreme Leader Snoke is really Darth Plagueis , the Sith Lord that trained Emperor Palpatine . It ’s credibly a huge stretch ( where was he as Palpatine rose and fall ? ) , but there ’s some interesting point to the theory . On the off chance that Snoke is Plagueis , Luceno ’s account book provides some good background on where he and Sideous / Palpatine come from , which really jumpstarts the integral era that the flick cover .

The Entire Clone Wars Multimedia Project

Okay , this does n’t have much to do with the post - RotJ public , but this decision always bothered me a little . These books were design to outfit closely with the prequel trilogy , and differentiate some excellent stories ; novels such as Matthew Stover ’s Shatterpoint to Karen Traviss ’s Hard Contact were excellent reads that contribute greatly to the larger Clone Wars fight . They ’ve likely been eliminated because there ’s some conflict with the Clone Wars idiot box serial publication , but nothing that has n’t already been managed .

The other inauspicious thing about this is that a lot of the novels , comics , and games help to keep going many of the minor reference — some of whom appear in the Clone Wars goggle box show , and are thus canon — which appear in the films . That read , there is one novel , Dark Disciple , by Christie Golden , which is part of the new canon .

Lilo And Stitch 2025

Razor’s Edge by Martha Wells and Honor Among Thieves by James S.A. Corey

in the beginning conceived of as a loose trilogy featuring the principle heroes of the Star Wars films , one of the books , Kevin Hearne’sHeir to the Jedi , is actually in the new canyon . The rule book by Wells and Corey follow Leia and Han respectively , and take place between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back .

Given that location , it ’s improbable that there was anything to conflict with the young films , and they were each fun , standalone adventures with the end of being open and approachable to unexampled lector .

Shadows of the Empire by Steven Perry

When LucasFilm began working on prequel movies , they want to give their licensee a psychometric test run to see how well everyone could work together . The solution was a multimedia system undertaking that involved a video game , a novel , action figures , funnies , and a soundtrack : shadow of the Empire . This book takes place between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi , and affect the dealings between Darth Vader and a offence lord , as well as Luke ’s time after his traumatic experience in the film .

The timeline emplacement here makes this a good prospect to keep around , and it ’s a sport news report that put in a whole bunch of new , interesting character reference .

The Truce at Bakura by Kathy Tyers

This novel has been supercede in the timeline byChuck Wendig ’s Aftermath , which help to set up the novel creation , but it does n’t seem like the books would run afoul all that much .

X-Wing: Rogue Squadron by Michael A. Stackpole

This is where we bulge to get into some sly soil , because we do n’t know all the detail that have been place out for the new canon . But , it ’s clear that the New Republic was established , and that they became a licit government as the Empire fell .

It come to me as plausible that Rogue Squadron will persist in the canyon somewhere , help to fight the Empire , one conflict at a metre . Stackpole ’s novels are a great amount of fun , and possibly they could fit in somewhere . If not , maybe we can get a new Seth of starfighter dangerous undertaking .

The Courtship of Princess Leia by Dave Wolverton

We’rehuge fansof Wolverton ’s Courtship of Princess Leia . While this novel does have a lot of down point , it does have some interesting points that are worth considering . We see in The Force Awakens that Han and Leia have their trouble , and this book of account sure as shooting shows off that ( oh , does it ever . )

What ’s more interesting though is the state of the Empire . As we see in TFA , the First Order is n’t the Empire — it ’s a perverted leftover of it , holding on to its own territory . That ’s essentially what the EU portrays : the fragmentation of the Empire , particularly in the pre - Thrawn books . In this novel , we see that happening , and it seems to delineate up a piffling with what the flick ends up with .

The Thrawn Trilogy by Timothy Zahn and the Jedi Academy Trilogy by Kevin J. Anderson

These books are the biggest reach , because we do n’t have it away a twain of key item , post - Force Awakens . We bang that Kylo Ren is essentially Jacen Solo , but we do n’t know who Rey really is . It ’s improbable that she ’s Han and Leia ’s daughter , but on the off - chance that that chance , it ’s potential that Zahn and Anderson ’s novels could suit somehow . These novels present that Han and Leia are married and have twins , which is probably the main rationality for why they were reboot from the canon in the first blank space .

That said , there ’s other similarities — we see the hike of a fragment of the Empire , the organisation of the New Republic and Luke ’s new Jedi Order , and all that go along with that .

Everything after this detail really relies on Han and Leia ’s children , because they ’re closely follow after their nascence and puerility . If Kylo Ren is really an only child , then these books are out . After these novels , we ’re clearly going into directions that really vary from the way that the films have ingest .
