		Zahn is different not only because he was the first to create the post-Return of the Jedi world, but because he has done it such justice.
		Soon after, Zahn's first science fiction story was published and with the support of his wife, he decided to quit graduate school to become a full-time writer.
		Zahn's editor almost didn't submit him for consideration because he was new to Bantam and she wanted him to focus on a book he owed her.

	Science Fiction Weekly Interview
		Timothy Zahn entered the book market with a militaristic space opera about cyborg soldiers in the 25th century in his novel Cobra and its sequels Cobra Strike and Cobra Bargain.
		Zahn: I used to like making up SF scenarios in my mind when I was in high school and college, usually while relaxing with colored pencil drawings, but I'd never gone any farther and actually written anything down.
		Zahn: Actually, I had rather hoped all along that Luke and Mara would eventually get together, but the end of the Thrawn trilogy was way too soon for a relationship like that to work and be plausible.

	Star Wars: Blogs \| Jedivan's Viewpoint \| Timothy Zahn's Outbound Flight Worth the Wait
		Some fans might be a little put out that Timothy Zahn has Anakin and Obi-Wan playing second fiddle to Jorus C'baoth, Thrawn, C'baoth's Padwan: Lorana Jinzler, smuggler Jorj Car'das, and Palpatine's aide: Kinman Doriana.
		(For a Timothy Zahn Clone Wars adventure showcasing Anakin and Obi-Wan see "Changing Seasons", which can be found at http://www.starwars.com/hyperspace/member/fiction/f20040720/index.html.) His portrayal of both aspects of Darth Sidious' persona (the actual Sith Lord personality and his public, charismatic Palpatine personality) is also right on target.
		In the end, Timothy Zahn once again sets the bar extremely high for all Star Wars authors, just like he did when Heir to the Empire was first published.

	Buy Survivor's Quest (Star Wars) - (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Zahn's other Star Wars books certainly have an element of mystery to them, but in this book it is the principal genre.
		Old-time Zahn fans, who have followed Luke and Mara from Heir to the Empire to Vision of the Future, probably won't have a problem coping with the new array of characters that Zahn invents; however, newcomers reading this book on its own might have a more difficult time.
		Because it is a newer book Zahn does a good job tying the newly revealed events of the Clone Wars to later events, especially through talk of the Old Republic Jedi and Luke and Mara's humorous attempts to sneak past the old droideka.
