How do?
Following EG'a recommendation, I ploughed through the four part 'Shattered Empire' by Marvel comics.
And it's ace.
Today? Today I picked up 'Aftermath', which picks up immediately after Endor.
Whilst I'm not massively fond of the writer's style, the story itself is really rather good. First of all, it makes sense. Far more than the old EU did.
Second? It's properly diverse. Two female protagonists, main antagonist also female. Same-sex marriage, good spread of non-human characters. It really does feel like Star Wars.
This being the opening post, I'm keen to avoid anything spolierific, so I'll leave it here.
But before I go.....buy it. Buy it all. I got 'Aftermath' a mere 5 hours ago, and I'm already a third of the way through it (and I've squeezed in a four pint visit to the pub!)
