		The New Republic is struggling on the one hand with internal jockeying for power, and on the other with remnants of the still extant Empire.
		Even if Heir to the Empire were not as well-written as it is, just by virtue of being the first, it would be held up as the gold-standard by which later EU literature is judged.
		In fact, Zahn is the writer who took a single line from Return of the Jedi."Many Bothans died to get us this information"..and established an entire species personality and "raison d'etre" for the Bothans, one that has provided plot complications for many of the EU authors that have come after.

		It is therefore not at all ready for the new danger to emerge -- an enemy that has the ability and the determination to outwit, outmaneuver and out-think the New Republic to its inevitable ruin.

		The idea that the Imperials fought worse after the Emperor's death because he was the focal point of the Empire was a nice notion.

		This is the second book in a trilogy by Timothy Zahn, continuing the interwoven storylines of a host of important Expanded Universe characters.
		In much the same way that The Empire Strikes Back takes the universe established in Star Wars: A New Hope and enriches and deepens it, so too does Dark Force Rising expand and enrich from what was established in Heir to the Empire.
		And Dark Force Rising is a marvelous continuation of what was begun in Heir to the Empire.

	Explain to me the hate for Zahn's Heir to the Empire book cycle? - The CHUD.COM Message Boards
		I think one of my problems is that with the OT over, people are trying to replace the Empire while staying "epic," and the ideas they're coming up with, i.e.
		Especially with all the power-mad backstabbing folk that seem to populate the Empire.
		I did read Heir to the Empire and half of the second book, but since I am not an avid reader, or even an occasional reader, I am not qualified to pass complete judgment over all the EU books.
