It's a mediocre plot for maybe six books at most(in terms of enjoyability), except expanded into nineteen books with the use of 'fluff', namely subplots that arc through the first few books but mean nothing now in the final books, not to mention the actual fluff in each book just to lengthen it. The 'Force Heretic' trilogy was useless. It could have been one book, but instead the entire first book is about a trivial battle involving the Remnant. The Final Prophecy was ridiculous, some Yuuzhan Vong went to Zonama Sekot, discovered something, the reader doesn't know what it is, that character dies, and the entire adventure was meaningless. Ok, so now some people moved from location A to location B, and Nom Anor isn't the prophet any longer, and the shaper and priest are dead. That's progress, but you realize that the author was given 'plot points', or events that must occur in the book, and told to write a story around those events. It's like that for every NJO. I'm not even sure if the authors knew how the whole series would turn out, except for their own book that they were writing. It would certainly explain the mass amounts of exposition Anakin Solo was receiving before dying. The author thought, this character does important event #12(sensing the Yuuzhan Vong through the Force with the lambent), he must be important for the rest of the series, so might as well build him up. The first few books danced around Vergere quite a bit, they could have gotten her in contact with the Jedi as early as Luceno's books, but they needed to prolong the series for maximized profits.
