Timothy Zahn
I just love this work this man has produced. I have not read one book of his I did not like. I am curious if anyone in the community have ever read his work? Many of you probably have, This is the genius who created Grand Admiral Thrawn! Has anyone branched into his other works such as...
Anglemass
Icarus Hunt (I didn't actually see that ending the way it did. I must be dense)
Between The Green and The Grey (Nice twist on greek/norse mythology)
A Coming of Age
and his best trilogy so far
Conquerors' Pride
Conquerors' Heritage
Conquerors' Legacy
What I love the most is that when this man invents an alien species, he goes the whole mile. He so far the best at crafting an alien culture, to go with the bodies. This also helps his alien characters be more likable. The second book of the conquerer trilogy is entirely from the perspective of aliens. It was awesome! Im sorry I just re-read a couple of his books and felt the need to say something.

Ah, isn't that the guy behind the dragon and ____ series?
Man, those ere fun little books.

Yes I believe so. I have not found the dragon series yet. Maybe on my next trip to toronto. The only sci-fi's my locale shop caries are the Halo novels and the works of David Webber. Don't ever read this ****. Most un-original authour I have encountered yet. he comes up with decent future military tech but his plots are predictable. This coming from a guy who re frames from thinking while he is reading or watching something. Even if a plot change is obvious I like surprises.

Me and my stupid lack of attention.
If I had crazy glasses like Mr. Zahn's, however, I would have noticed!

In his more current photographs he dosent have those silly things. I didn't use them because he was hold a lighsabre in them, or he was with other people.
