300 new entries to the Thrawn Trilogy


I've been studying his blog, Pallaeon. His weakness appears to be idiotic puns.


In the last few months, me and Knight have been reading Timothy Zahn's trilogy of classic mid-nineties Star Wars sequels - 'Heir to the Empire', 'Dark Force Rising' and 'The Last Command'.

They're absolutely fantastic, not least because of the cast of new characters Zahn introduced - many of whom, such as Mara Jade, have been with the ongoing series ever since he rejuvenated it with these books. The other great new character in this trilogy is the main villain - Grand Admiral Thrawn. In the long, sad history of the Star Wars 'Expanded Universe', this is the one character I am proud to name a 'Star Wars Villian'. The only one who's up there with Darth Vader and the Emperor and Peter Cushing. (Well him and Darth Revan.)

I don't think the actual titles of these books are very good. One could even say they are UNWORTHY of Grand Admiral Thrawn! And also I think the name 'Thrawn' sounds kind of funny - so for a while I've been trying to amuse Knightfall by constantly referring to them by made up names...

Here is a list of 50 better titles for the three individual books of the Thrawn trilogy. And there are so many, you could even get a few sequels out of them! Mr Zahn, you may use them if you wish. I haven't applied for a copyright on any of these.


UPDATE!

Thanks to dedicated support from fellow Thrawn-fans I am proud to announce some extra special Thrawn content!

Thanks to all the suggestions sugestions and my own tireless Thrawning, we now have over THREE HUNDRED bloody Thrawn titles!!

Considering I was hoping to come up with 50, this is really something! Three hundred?!?! Thank you VERY much to everyone who has contributed.

R.A.Eng-what? 's entries are the ones in Thrawn-blue.
Cali's are in Imperial Orange... or something. Orange. Oh crap, some of them are in yellow. I'm not editing them all again. Orange or yellow for Cali.
And Mr Glow is in green!

Do YOU know any words that rhyme - even slightly - with 'Thrawn'? Can you make a film or book title funny by replacing a noun with 'Thrawn'? If so, we want to hear from you!

I have EVERY faith we can make it to 1000 titles!


Thrawn.
