John and Matt have re-read the 1995 Star Wars Expanded Universe (Now “Legends”) novel “Darksaber,” and have a fresh review on the work through the lens of hindsight and fan nostalgia. They ask:
– Would this hold up for adaptation in the modern era, like Thrawn?
– Were creators too obsessed with “Death Star Tech” back then, too?
– Are we too nostalgic about the old EU?
– Would there be anything here for non-Star Wars fans to enjoy?Let these Jedi Masters show how works like Darksaber pointed the way to a successful future for Star Wars publishing…and whether that guidance is needed again.
