    I just started the Thrawn Trilogy after seeing him in Ahsoka. Excited to see where this goes.

      If you like them I’d recommend checking out the Heir to the Empire series as well. It’s written by the same author so Thrawn character wise is pretty consistent with the new ones, but it’s in a different setting. The audiobook versions are quite good too since they add sound effects and music to help immerse the listener.

          I had to double-check I was reading the right books. 😅

      After that, you could read about his time in the Chiss Ascendancy, the second Thrawn trilogy! I enjoyed it much more than the first!

      There is also a comic of the first Thrawn book if you need to place faces to names. The sequence is a little different but all the story components are there.

    If you don’t hear this in Lars Milkkensen’s voice, I just don’t know what we are doing anymore.

    Private, I’m curious, why is it that squads with fox decals perk up upon hearing “Kashyyyk.”

      They think you sneezed and are gearing up to say “bless you,” sir.

    I just finished the series today and feel the whole thing was a huge nothingburger, and Thrawn was kind of a letdown after reading the books years ago. A coworker described it as rebels season 5 which I did miss watching that series, but a lot of the episodes just felt like filler with one major plot point happening in each. Overall a waste of time and opportunity imo.

      I was absolutely stunned by the visuals and the soundscape. They blew me away.

      I felt the story was lackluster and the acting felt a bit restrained, likely because of the former.
