Based on some of the stuff I've read, you may be right. The thing is, I have enjoyed NJO, but, I just ignore the shit and enjoy the good stuff.
And yeah, there is some good stuff. Most of the books have significantly interesting moments.
But still, some of the writers have no clue.
It could be that there have been too many books written recently, and too many different writers have been used to tell this story.
Hopefully, things will start to ta change in Feb. when Zahn's next book is released.
