We're in the business of extending man's senses.
SCDS-related autophony differs greatly in quality and range from the more common form which results from an open, or patulous Eustachian tube through which sufferers of this disorder hear the sound of their own voice and breathing. In contrast, patients with SCDS-related autophony report hearing their own voice as a disturbingly loud and distorted "kazoo-like" sound deep inside the head as if relayed through "a cracked loudspeaker." Additionally they may hear the creaking and cracking of joints, the sound of their footsteps when walking or running, their heartbeat and the sound of chewing and other digestive noises. Some sufferers of this condition experience such a high level of conductive hyperacusis that a tuning fork placed on the ankle will be heard in the affected ear. The bizarre phenomenon of being able to hear the sound of the eyeballs moving in their sockets (e.g. when reading in a quiet room) "like sandpaper on wood" is one of the more distinctive features of this condition and is almost exclusively associated with SCDS.

Personal life

When Rees was a young man, he and three of his friends recorded over 2,000 songs as members of a "secret band." Rees attempted to coerce one of his friends to ask for a bass guitar for a Christmas a gift; his friend ended up asking for a regular guitar instead and it upset Rees.[17]

In 2010, Rees worked as a civil servant for the United States Census Bureau, a position that engendered his interest in pencils. Rees lives in Beacon, New York.[20]

A murderer who carves a K into his victims is imprisoned in Jabba's palace, when the story begins. A prisoner tricks Zak into believing that he is innocent, and Zak lets him escape. This is presumed to be the same murderer. Later, Zak thinks he sees Tash kill someone and carve the same K. This is explained when a brain spider spells out "IM TASH" in sand, suggesting that the murderer's brain was placed in Tash's body and that Tash's brain was placed in a spider.

Tash tries to develop her sense of the force at the Sarlacc pit.

Trivia
Zak was not responsible for the swarm, as a pile of dead shreevs was discovered at the end of the story.
Grand Admiral Thrawn appears in the story. Zak, Tash and Hoole wisely decide not to board his Star Destroyer when given the chance.

Why? Patrick Stewart is playing an old pervert with an ego problem. It's funny because in real life he's actually been an extremely active champion of women's rights (specifically working against domestic abuse) for decades
