I’d say at least 5 out 10 casual Star Wars fans will tell you the Thrawn books would make a good series of films, even though objectively that’s not true and is just one of those things people repeat. Don’t believe me? Flip open Heir to the Empire right now: at the very start, Thrawn is chilling out in a “softly lit art museum,” and reveals to his lackey Captain Pellaeon that best way screw people in military conflicts is to “Learn about art…when you understand a species’ art, you understand that species.”Īs a species, the majority of Star Wars fans (or at least those with the loudest voices) hold the Zahn books in insanely high esteem, probably because they were the first Star Wars books published that ushered in the flood of 100’s of novels mostly all set in a post- Return of the Jedi continuity. The way he does this primarily is through artistic appreciation. In these books, Thrawn is a bizarrely artistic villain because he gains advantage over planets he subjugates by studying their culture to the point where he becomes expert enough to notice their sentiments.
