Not getting the Sword of the Jedi books or Troy Denning post Crucible trilogy is the biggest knife in the ribs Disney ever gave me. I could forgive their canon if they had just allowed new stories under the Legends banner to continue instead of axing them and only allowing reprints.
@@jacquelineking5783 very split on him. On 1 hand dark nest showed that it's rough getting through a whole trilogy of him, but that is exclusively due to his writing skill. He just is lacking a sense for prioritizing n decide the best level of detail for events. That makes his pacing torturous at times. On the other hand he similar to lucas as filmmaker, actually like many people who r a kind of visionary (creativity often comes at the cost of either practical talent or social skill. It's common enough to have inspired the trope "mad scientist" n one look at einsteins hair is like a illustrated definition of it. TD has great creativity n i'd count him to my fav's ranking eu writers by their stories concepts. Dark nest 4 me, was just as a great storyarc as it was a monumental task to get through. If a story is keeping u invested despite it's writing, even in audioform would've made u stop caring otherwise, that's the best proof u could ask 4. I got into the legacy arc 1st n tho' i had less strong issues with it then many, it still was about the same points. The series was kinda "meh". 4 the stuff i enjoyed much including its execution, which happened to b a sub plot, there were also books that were holding up so bad that i cared less 4 the main plot that wasn't really a worse story but after the way a traviss story hooks u effortlessly it's hard to bring the tolleramce n effort, that's needed to get invested into TD's writing. Allston who was my favorite xwing guy, unfortunately suffers a similar lack in scaling detail to importance. He mostly shows that in spacebattles by over describing each lil' dogfight. In this arc he did this in other duels to but at least they rarely r part of a battle with dozens of'em. His great way of getting u immersed into his world also helped, still both writers behind the main plot can not reach traviss' skill that makes her more based n conservative concepts easily the main draw over ideas that don't fear to try being adventurous. That usually is a plus of TD - he can try out quite weird ideas n somehow mostly makes them work in that universe, so he enriches the lore as a whole n broadens the horizon. There was critique about the way that characters evolved or were retconned tho'. THe latter coul b argued 4 vergere. Any source that claaims her to b a sith supporter with their return as her agenda, is based on hearsay b a person that says so in the context of getting into jacen's head and long after verger is gone. Never it is told as narration or her perspective, so it's a 50/50 that allows to b read eitherway. Indeed, i had quite the issue to believe the change of some characters since njo, that teinted a story that on itself was cool but not in context, the problem was the buttom line 4 how the arc was doing as a whole 4 me. That was changed quite a bit after i got to know dark nest. They filled in the very piece of personality evolvement that was within what's a gap otherwise, to big to keep it plausable how they've gotten. Personally that trilogy made legacy so much more enjoyable for me by the context for it n the help to make it feel less seperate to the continuity, that it's almost essential just 4 that, while it's kinda unimportant as a thing on it's own.
It can fit in canon Instead of with Jaina It’s with Rey I am all the Jedi Legends is just a secondary POV now Just have to deal with it The other stories can easily fit into canon Luke Han and leia adventures A book about shak ti Lol ok
@@ChosenOne-il4bm, uh. No. To compare Jaina to Rey is an insult. Jaina had an arc and character development. Jaina earned her bad bitch status. Don’t play that “Deal with it” shit.
This helps me a lot so I won’t have to look up what books were discontinued. Because I ran into escape from Dagu and I thought I was going to have to find the other ones. Definitely can’t wait to read the vong war series.
NGL the idea of a sequel story about Nomi Sunrider seems really cool. She's a very odd character from one of the stranger storylines in the Legends series. Vima Sunrider also got an open-ended story so I hope it'd have continued that somehow. (and maybe if I'm lucky, I can wish that it'd explain the missing link between Ulic Qel-Droma and Sedriss QL)
An awesome video! Hope we one day have Mandorla and Escape from Dagu and Blood Oath; like we now have Heart of the Jedi and Lightsider! Awesome video man!
Mandorla isn’t going to happen, as it was never even really written. Escape from Dagu is potentially feasible if someone from Lucasfilm leaks the internal review copies. Blood Oath was similarly never actually written, as far as I’m aware.
@@frankheninja1 I've heard Blood Oath was written in part but is lost. It was cancelled super close to release date. Mandorla at best was in early draft stages so yeah probably a no. Dagu was probably complete.
To be honest, any new EU novels would have been welcomed. Escape from Dagu, the Sword of the Jedi trilogy, and the Troy Denning trilogy especially would have been absolutely perfect. Intriguing was the notion of the three books by Michael Jan Friedman: I know him from his great work in the Star Trek novels for Pocket Books - a shame that his potential in the Star Wars EU was never realised. As for the novel I was glad was never published..it would have to be the Mando book.
Seems your using an old list, I've tried to get in contact with the creator of StarWarsTimelines to point out that Alot of the source links for Cancelled EU, are broken.

Astonishing how they are still reprinting old EU. I guess we're lucky they still getting enough money out of it to let it go on
I mean I would take Denning over what we have now but I can't say I miss him that much.

Instead of with Jaina
It’s with Rey
I am all the Jedi
Legends is just a secondary POV now
Just have to deal with it
The other stories can easily fit into canon
Luke
Han and leia adventures
A book about shak ti
Lol ok

Imperial Commando was the one that I really wanted. Its cancellation stung me.
I wish they would allow the Sword of the Jedi series to be written and published. And Blood Oath was a book I preordered and never was published.
Is that Zekk from the YA young jei knight series? If so, that could've been interesting. Always liked that character.
Him finding love with one or both of Tenel Ka's cousins would be a great ending for him.
Yeah , some of these sound good. Read a couple on some sites.
The two from Karen Travis I would love read!

Great video 👍🏻
Thank you
What is your opinon HandOfThrawn45’s fan works and will you do any videos on them?
I haven't really delved into that. But at some point I'll look it over and probably make some videos.
