Which Zahn books? The Heir to the Empire or the newer Thrawn trilogy? I love both, and I feel like they’ve done an incredible job with Rebels, Ahsoka, Mandalorian… really all of the tv shows (though I haven’t watched Maul yet). I would love for them to continue telling these stories and have the original characters just show up where it makes sense… like Luke coming to collect Grogu for training. Maybe have Han and Chewy running a cantina left to him by Lando. Ewoks starting the process of joining the New Republic and electing representatives. And Wedge… well, he had enough of war and no one has heard from him in many years.
They don’t need to keep telling stories about Luke… the remarkable part of his life happened when he was young, now he’s doing the boring and difficult work of rebuilding the Jedi Order. There’s no exciting story there, but he can be in the background of other characters who are doing remarkable things.
