 Since it's already a trashy sub-genre and I doubt the stigma of tie-ins matter, I'll go ahead and say I fuckin' love the X-Wing series. It's just straight-up space adventure, without the pointless, endless continuity and fanservice of the main series of Star Wars books, just blastin' the poo poo out of TIE fighters for 400 pages at a time.

General consensus is that while the Stackpole stuff isn't bad, when Aaron Allston takes over in the later books it takes a turn for the :iamafag:
