    That part specifically was silly, but I though the OG Zahn trilogy was ok (but also I haven't read them since highschool, I only remember they weren't Empire apologia in the way the Vong were) (probably still lib tho)

      Well the main political opponent of our heroes in the New Republic is a slimy spymaster who's entire race is portrayed as spies, who uses the fact that his people got massacred getting the DSII plans and in general got enslaved as an "excuse" to further his political goals. Like holy shit Zahn

      But yeah Luuke is silly and I am fine with him. The only actual issue I have with his existence is he is there for the third act of the final book and then that's it. Like Zahn realized Cabaoth needed a plot

        I am probably not reading them again regardless. Too many depressing leftist books to read.
