I first read Timothy Zahn’s Thrawn trilogy when it was originally published in the early 1990s, and while I retained positive memories of the books I was content with leaving them as a positive reading experience in my memory. The release of Episode IX in the film series, however, led me to revisit ...

Picking up where "Heir to the Empire" left off, Zahn continues the interstellar adventures of Han, Leia, and Luke after "Return of the Jedi". If you liked the first Thrawn outing, you'll definitely like this sequel; in fact, I wouldn't recommend reading "Dark Force Rising" unless you've already rea...
