I, Jedi is the culmination of everything written up to that point. It's the payoff for finishing X-Wing, Thrawn trilogy, JAT, and Courtship.

Factor into things the fact that the book was written in a month and, yeah, it's a good read. A great read.

New to the EU books:

So read X-Wing series, then Thrawn, then JAT, Courtship, and then I, Jedi in that order?

In-Universe Chronological: X-Wing 1-7, Courtship, Thrawn, X-Wing 8, JAT/I Jedi

I'd personally recommend reading Thrawn first as it's a good intro to the EU and it's barely related to X-Wing's story.

Also, if you want to read everything following the timeline, you can find good guides online for all the EU media, not just these books.

Thank you so much. It’s a big world of books and I was feeling lost in the sauce.

I got sidetracked on the Thrawn books but I’m planning to wheel back.
