Tales from the New Republic: Star Wars Legends (Star… by Peter Schweighofer
I didn't love this, at all. I rarely drop a 2-star anymore but this just wasn't an engaging read. I really liked the Certain Point of View offerings and thought this might have been inspiration (It was released pre-Disney, transitions to Legends). It wasn't. The stories just weren't interesting. We didn't get tangential characters we knew about, we got stories about characters we don't know, places we don't know, with very little stakes.

Tales from the New Republic by Peter Schweighofer
Maybe I just left this in the TBR pile too long (20 years, good grief) but I found most of the stories unreadable. I liked a couple, but barely skimmed the rest.
