I did.  Read that when it first came out, though, and the events are pretty isolated.  I'll have a peek at it when I get home.  Didn't play through that N64 game.   :cheers:

All I seem to remember off the top of my head from that particular book is the showdown between Vader and Xizor.

Ryglore:
Actually now that I think of it. The way Shadows was set up was that the book, N64 game and comics were all telling different sections of the story.

from wiki:

--- Quote ---The main story is told by the novel written by Steve Perry, the comic series by Dark Horse, and the Nintendo 64/PC game. Each is designed to tell one part of the overall story; the story is complete only when all three venues are explored. The novel tells the overall story, focusing on the main characters. The comic book series focuses on bounty hunter Boba Fett's battle to keep possession of the frozen Han Solo. The video game allows players to control new character Dash Rendar, whose adventures in the game weave in and out of the overall storyline. All the while, a battle for the life of Luke Skywalker takes place between Darth Vader and Prince Xizor, as each tries to please Emperor Palpatine.

Anyway, I'll let everyone get back on topic. :)

ChadTower:

Well that would certainly explain why I don't recognize the name.  :)

Never could find time to both read the books and finish the games.

The avatar is from a webtoon called "Rejected." It's supposedly about this cartoonist who submitted some animation for "The Learning Channel" but his work was turned down. The cartoons get progressively stranger and stranger until... well... check it out (EDIT: May be NSFW)
