@@joshuarichmond2688 My honest answer would be that if you’re not committed to reading the whole series, don’t bother. Each book adds to the overarching story. Now, if you HAD to read just one, I’d say Vector Prime. It serves as a great introduction to the Yuuzhan Vong, has some fun character stuff, and can serve as a standalone adventure with only a few loose ends.
@@joshuarichmond2688 Ah sorry, I misunderstood that. Well, having read them all, NJO does a good job of referencing pretty much all of them, so that’s my ideal answer. But I’d say the essentials are 1) The Thrawn Trilogy, 2) the X-Wing series, 3) The Jedi Academy Trilogy, and 4) The Hand of Thrawn Duology. I’d strongly recommend Young and Junior Jedi Knights, the Corellian trilogy, Truce at Bakura, Courtship of Princess Leia, and the Black Fleet Crisis. For comics, I’d say Dark Empire is the only big one.
You don’t have to read anything to enjoy the story , you can read it and then read old books and learn the connections that way or read old books first but not vital
woo, caught back up
So from you journey what book do you think need to be read to get the most from New Jedi Order

@@LegendsLiterature sorry I meant books and comic that were published before NJW that tie in to the series
I read all of Bantam and almost every book adds to the NJO I would try to read it all it took me two years but it was worth it
