Tatooine Ghost

You don't really have to have read anything beforehand. Knowing the potential significance of the Chimeara and the stormtrooper commander would be handy, but not vital. That, and it's a damn fine book, and it can add quite a bit to EP1 and EP2 (as in, what went on between the films with Anakin's mom).

The only good series, IMO, are the HTTE and Rouge Squadron. Though I disliked the Xwing books after the bacta war.

I thought that Rogue Squadron sucked. He should read HttE and SbS.

Timothy Zahn - Thrawn trilogy. The first SW books I have read were those - and they really sucked me into the SW universe.
