I thought it was an entertaining movie, and perfectly fine. I don't know why it didn't do well.

Found this amusing. All I know is being an author isn't an easy lifestyle. The more money they can make the more power to them.

I just finished the Farseer Trilogy (I liked it). Do I go right to the Liveship series next, and then the Tawny Man?

It depends. If you only want to follow Fitz skip Liveship. I really loved Liveship, it really lets her expand the world she's created. She has a way to make you get so invested. Liveship was a really good trilogy in my opinion.

Does he happen to steal from the rich to give to the poor?

I was curious how much money Tad Williams has made in his career, so the other day I looked up his net worth on Google. The reliability of those things is obviously questionable, but it said he is worth $700,000. I couldn't believe it - he has sold an absolute metric ****load of books.

Michael J. Sullivan wrote a blurb on his website about how rough it can be for authors. Guy self publishes everything now on Kickstarter. All his stuff is on my To Be Read Pile too.

I read one of his series and it was kind of good, but not spectacular. I'm pretty picky, though.

I really extremely like that gif. I hardly needed to tell you that, though.

Started reading Gods of Blood and Powder book 1, Sins of Empire.
I had sneaking suspicion and it came true. Dang.

New Jedi order was astronomically better than the new trilogy. Jaina solo was a more compelling female protagonist. I'd actually like them to do the Vong post rise of Skywalker as it would at least complete the theme

A lot of it blurs together now so I'll try to extract useful information. Hopefully I don't accidentally lump in some Star Trek.
There's a lot of good ones if you don't mind reading the stuff that technically isn't official anymore. Lost Tribe of the Sith is an interesting take on a marooned Sith ship that forms a society while lording over a planet's natives. There are several good comics, like the Thrawn series and Dark Empire 1 and 2. The Darth Vader series that wrapped up last year (well I guess 2018) was good. There's another one that sucks because of art choices so don't get that one. The Exar Kun comic series (Forget what it's called) is also good; we've got Sith, we've got Jedi, we've got Mandalorians.
I read the X-Wing/Rogue Squadron? series ages ago and a Tales of the Bounty Hunters book that I liked a lot when I was in middle school but I don't trust those opinions now.
Get yourself a month of Comixology and you can binge read a bunch of these for stupid cheap compared to buying them all, but unfortunately you'd still have to buy an issue or two as not all are included.

It might be faster to list franchises that don't have an Alien crossover, though.
Darth Plagueis book or series is supposed to be good...and there is a Bounty Hunter series I was told was good...I keep meaning to read the Kenobi one
