RIP Ann C. Crispin (September 6, 2013)

Business & Heritage Clarksville

Saw this on another forum. She died at the age of 63, losing a fight against cancer.

Sad news. Her Han Solo Trilogy was one of the better entries in the Bantam era of the EU, giving some fun backstory to Han Solo and being an enjoyable read. I especially liked her creating the Bria Tharen character, who was an interesting look at the early days of the Rebellion and was one of the few early instances of the Rebels being less than the squeaky clean good guys pretty much all of the EU would portray them as. For that alone she gets plenty of kudos from me on her writing skills.
