This is a Old Republic Era E-Book series of 7+ mini novels or novellas if you would. I got mine for free from iBooks. You can also buy the complete set here for $7.99 print or $4.99 Kindle. (Don't have a Kindle? Don't Worry! There is an app for that...Kindle app).
This series is as far back as you can go, chronologically, (so far) hence why I am starting with these.
So far John Jackson Miller (aka John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt) has written 7 books in the series, but the eighth one and the EPIC CONCLUSION is available in the collected stories. I'm hoping that the ending will be available on iBooks by the time I finish the seventh one so I don't have to pay $4.99. The book titles are as follows:
1. Precipice
2. Skyborn
3. Paragon
4. Savior
5. Purgatory
6. Sentinel
7. Pantheon
They are about 30 pages long apiece and I'm already confused. This series occurs 25,000 years before A New Hope. I'm starting with Precipice and am already learning so much! Apparently the Sith are not just dark lords of the underworld as we once believed. No, no. They were once a species that the Dark Lords named themselves after. Who knew? Oh yeah, and their skin is red. No big deal. That's not weird.
The book moves pretty good so far but there is a lot of talk about mechanical stuff and reactors and things I will never understand. I'm just trying to figure out who the characters are and the damn plot line, John! GAH!
