I had the great pleasure to interview Timothy Zahn, the author of the most famous and well-loved books in the expanded universe last weekend at Starfest 2013. He is a prolific author, but his best-known works center around the new villain Thrawn, who comes to power after the Empire falls at end of Return of the Jedi.
In this interview, he touches on the new Star Wars movies and their future, what it feels like to know that he may no longer be canon, rock-paper-scissors done Star Wars-style, and how consequence testing fits into his Star Wars Expanded universe.
Boom believes the truth is out there, and that there is no such thing as a final frontier. She isn’t, however, entirely convinced that a towel is that useful for all situations.She is the author of 'Dora's Jinx', 'The Death of Israel Leventhal', and 'Pay-Per-View Ragnarok and Other Modern Myths'. All are available on Amazon.As a science fiction nerd, she has written her Masters dissertation on spatial philosophy in Star Trek, and hosts Charlie Foxtrot (A Stargate Universe podcast) as well as The Five Year Mission (a Star Trek Podcast).The things she likes outside of Science Fiction include British panel shows, writing young adult stories, reciting the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in an attempt to be ironically cool, and sketch comedies.
