Historia
For a beleaguered Empire, desperate times call for desperate measures. Sowing discord among the fragile coalition of the New Republic, remnants of the once powerful Empire make one last play for victory. Having implicated the Bothans in the genocide of the Caamas, they now plan an attack on Han and Leia that is also to be blamed on the Bothans. If they are successful, the New Republic will be torn asunder.

Long overdue and finally got to it. Well worth it.

As a Star Wars fan, I thoroughly enjoyed the Hand of Thrawn series. The original Thrawn trilogy had been my introduction to the expanded universe, and I was eager to see how Timothy Zahn would continue the story. I was not disappointed.
The return of Grand Admiral Thrawn, one of the most captivating and enigmatic characters in the Star Wars universe, was a highlight of the series for me. Zahn's writing was engaging, and he did an excellent job of capturing the essence of the Star Wars universe, with its epic battles and intricate political landscape.
I particularly enjoyed the exploration of the political climate in the Star Wars galaxy. Zahn delved into the complex relationships between various factions and showed how the actions of a few could have far-reaching consequences. I found this aspect of the series to be both thought-provoking and entertaining.
Another aspect of the series that resonated with me was the return of familiar characters from the original trilogy. Seeing how their stories had developed over the years was satisfying and added depth to the series. I also appreciated the introduction of new characters that were well-developed and engaging in their own right.
While the pacing of the series could be slow at times, and some of the political maneuverings were a bit tedious, overall, I found the Hand of Thrawn series to be a satisfying follow-up to the original Thrawn trilogy. It provided closure to some of the storylines from the earlier books while introducing new threats and challenges for the characters to face.
In conclusion, the Hand of Thrawn series holds a special place in my heart as a continuation of the Star Wars story that I grew up with. It may not be perfect, but it is a well-crafted story with engaging characters that kept me invested from beginning to end.
