[QUOTE]Originally posted by MarianLH: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Kazeite: [qb] My "opinion" is not an opinion - it is the fact. The fact is that novels are not canon, although in some people's opinion they are canon. Analogically, I may not like the fact that Brannon Braga has declared [i]Enterprise[/i] canon, but this is the fact - [i]Enterprise[/i] is canon :/ [/qb][/QUOTE]Which is why it's so deliciously freeing--in an intellectual way, of course--to not give a rip about what is or is not "canon." You should try it sometime. It's like skinnydipping for the mind. :) Having said that, I will now earn the ire of the novel fans by saying I didn't like the Zahn novels very much. I found the plot rather silly and the new characters trite and shallow--especially Karrde and Mara Jade. The use of Earth names like "katana" also bothered me. I did like the use of stuff from the West End SWRPG, and the scene where an X-Wing with a damaged hyperdrive is stranded in the middle of nowhere--scifi seldom gets across the idea of how [i]vast[/i] space really is. I'm also tickled by the idea of Leia with a lightsaber. But a few good bits don't make up for Force-repelling tree anemones or the Seven of Nine of the Star Wars universe. Raising shields, :) Marian [/QB][/QUOTE]
