My book list
Here is a list of books I personally have read in order of their occurance in the Star Wars universe.

I have told you which ones I own or have direct access to in case any of you people need something looked up in any of them.

Clone Wars novels

 * 1) Republic Commando: Hard Contact - I know, it's not a Clone Wars novel, but it happened during the Clone Wars. It's a great book; I highly recommend it.
 * 2) Shatterpoint - Good book.
 * 3) The Cestus Deception - This one I own. Pretty good, but not the most action packed.  Kit Fisto is awesome!
 * 4) MedStar II: Jedi Healer - I'm going to read the first one soon
 * 5) Jedi Trial - I own this one as well. It was more action-oriented than The Cestus Deception.
 * 6) Yoda: Dark Rendezvous - It was pretty good.
 * 7) Labrynth of Evil - Great book; Luceno is an amazing author. Technically it's not a Clone Wars Novel, but it ended off the Clone Wars.
 * 8) Somewhere in that time frame is this one: Republic Commando: Triple Zero. Also a very good book.  Action oriented all the way.

eBooks

 * 1) Only one here: The Hive. It came with The Cestus Deception.

Galactic Civil War novels
It's not really a series, but here are the ones I've read from that time frame.
 * 1) Tales of the Bounty Hunters - Pretty good, my bro owns it
 * 2) Tales from Jabba's Palace - The short story ones are always interesting. My bro also owns this one
 * 3) Tales from the Empire - Own it
 * 4) Tales from the New Republic - Own it
 * 5) The Bounty Hunter Wars: Mandalorian Armor
 * 6) The Bounty Hunter Wars: Slave Ship - I own this one.
 * 7) The Bounty Hunter Wars: Hard Merchandise - The Bounty Hunter Wars series was awesome.
 * 8) The Truce at Bakura - Got this one. It was okay.
 * 9) X-wing: Rogue Squadron - Own it. Good book.
 * 10) X-wing: The Krytos Trap - Oops, I skipped the second one. I own this one to.  My bro owns Wedge's Gamble, but I haven't got around to reading that yet.
 * 11) The Courtship of Princess Leia - Own this one too. It's good.  Tells a lot about Solo.
 * 12) The Thrawn Trilogy: Heir to the Empire - I own this trilogy, I'm proud to say. Zahn's a great author.
 * 13) The Thrawn Trilogy: Dark Force Rising - This one was the source of my mixup over the classification of the Dreadnaught-class Heavy Cruiser. Got that straightened out now.
 * 14) The Thrawn Trilogy: The Last Command - The Grand Finale of the series. Great finish.
 * 15) The Jedi Academy Trilogy: Jedi Search - Pretty good book. I own this trilogy as well.
 * 16) The Jedi Academy Trilogy: Dark Apprentice - Not a bad book. The trilogy gets better as it progresses.
 * 17) The Jedi Academy Trilogy: Champions of the Force - I like the twist it throws in with Daala in the book.
 * 18) Children of the Jedi - I own it, and I liked it
 * 19) Darksaber - Good idea, bad execution. Own this one too.
 * 20) The Crystal Star - I still don't totally understand it, but it was intriguing, to say the least. Own it.
 * 21) The Corellian Trilogy: Ambush at Corellia - I liked this trilogy. Imagine, a superweapon with the power to destroy star systems sitting wide open in the Corellian Sector for anyone to take, yet no one realizes it!  I own this trilogy.
 * 22) The Corellian Trilogy: Assault at Selonia - I like Lando. He gets himself into a lot of trouble.
 * 23) The Corellian Trilogy: Showdown at Centerpoint - Good finish.

New Jedi Order Series

 * 1) Dark Tide I: Onslaught - Pretty good intro to the series. Own it.
 * 2) Agents of Chaos I: Hero's Trial - Made me want to read the sequel. My bro owns it.
 * 3) The Unifying Force - I skipped a bit in the middle, but I got the gist of it. Good guys win, bad guys cooperate.  I liked the resolution of it.

eBooks

 * 1) Ylesia - Only one here, too.

Other

 * 1) The Dark Nest Trilogy: The Joiner King - Great start to the trilogy. My bro owns it.
 * 2) The Dark Nest Trilogy: The Unseen Queen - Loved every minute of it. I own it.
 * 3) The Dark Nest Trilogy: The Swarm War...I wish. The used bookstores didn't have it, and there's no bookstores here!  I need to get this one.
 * 4) Almost forgot this one. Star Wars: From the Adventures of Luke Skywalker, Lucas' original book, published in '76.
 * 5) Rogue Planet - Good book, I read the hardcover version.
 * 6) Episode III: Revenge of the Sith - A very good book; starts up right where Labrynth of Evil leaves off. Gives you much more detail than movies could do.
 * 7) Prophets of the Dark Side - not the greatest book I ever read. Not the worst, but definitely not the best.

SW Games
I am a Star Wars Gamer. Here are a list of the SW games I have played; the ones I have completed labeled. Battlefront and Battlefront II are amazing. They both provide awesome gameplay and Battlefront I has one of the longest, if not the longest lifespan of a single game. BF2 allows you to play as Jedi. Republic Commando is a great game as well; I recommend it. It's one of the few games that your squadmates actually turn on you if you attack them. Rebellion, although not the most advanced game ever, is still very fun. Easy if you know how to handle it, though. JK:JA (Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy for those of you that don't do acronyms) is (so far) a great game. Haven't beat this one yet. Dark Forces is pretty good (gameplay), but the graphics aren't. Rebel Assault II is pretty fun, but it only took me half an hour to beat it. Empire at War...Amazing. Wish I had it, but I've only been able to play it briefly. Ah, well. Can't have everything. Battle For Naboo was fun, especially Coruscant. Rogue Squadron was much like BFN, except for the fighters. Also fun. Episode I...I didn't have much playing time for Ep. I. X-wing Alliance: fun but challenging. LEGO Star Wars was pretty fun, but II: The Original Trilogy was amazing. A friend and I just beat it the other day. Ep I Racer is pretty good, as gameplay goes. Ep III is quite a fun game, although the MagnaGuard is the slowest, most annoying unit to fight as, but it's stinking strong.
