jendefer<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://dice.camp/@factolvictor" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>factolvictor</span></a></span> I really enjoyed the new canon Thrawn novels. (I found Thrawn to be far more compelling as a protagonist in his own novels than as an antagonist in other media.) <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/StarWars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StarWars</span></a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a></p>

Michael Smith<p>This book was a banger. I really like the way Zahn writes Thrawn, in particular they way he writes his relationships with others.

***Dave Hill<p>Let me say this:</p><p>1. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Ahsoka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ahsoka</span></a> was about 5 episodes of story in an 8 episode bag, as if <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/DavidFiloni" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DavidFiloni</span></a> could only script 21 minute cartoons and had to pad the rest out.</p><p>2. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/SabineWren" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SabineWren</span></a> was badly mistreated as a character.</p><p>3. To my dying day I will love Grand Admiral <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a>, but that makeup was really bad.</p><p>4. l boo and hiss the dark powers of the universe that took <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/RayStevenson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RayStevenson</span></a> away from us. </p><p>5. Ahsoka is too snarky-superior. That's why you left the <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Jedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jedi</span></a>, lady! </p><p>6. Enjoyed it.

Clara :verified:<p>Seriously thinking about getting the <a href="https://ieji.de/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a> trilogy. I wanna read more english literature and heard many great things about it :o Also I just love having a smart antagonist who doesn't lose their temper every 5 minutes.

Most interesting character of the show. </p><p>- This is Starwars <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Rebels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rebels</span></a> with a splash of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Ahsoka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ahsoka</span></a></p><p>- Still not sure why they didn’t market this as a live action Rebels. </p><p>- Think they will stick the landing for the season finale, but I don’t expect the main conflict to be resolved. </p><p>- Wouldn’t be surprised if they pull a “To be continued…” cliffhanger.</p>

Jyn Erso Lives!<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a> looks horrible.

Darth Hideout 🏳️‍🌈<p>A good way to prevent something from happening seems to be to boldy predict it.</p><p>So I hereby boldly predict that we will get, at most, 5 minutes of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a> in a cliffhanger season finale of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Ahsoka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ahsoka</span></a>, to be resolved at earliest in 2025 in S2 or <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Filoni" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Filoni</span></a>'s feature film. 🫐</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/StarWars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StarWars</span></a></p>
Darth Hideout 🏳️‍🌈<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CaptainPellaeon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CaptainPellaeon</span></a> is the one character who never fails to appear where <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a> is.

Darth Hideout 🏳️‍🌈<p>The events of the third canon novel, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Thrawn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thrawn</span></a>: Treason, take place during the fourth season of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Rebels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rebels</span></a>, beginning in S4E10, <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/JediNight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JediNight</span></a>.
