Well he basically has no idea of plotting or characterizations.

He has morons on both sides calling the shots and has the Solo children pull things that would make Yoda bow.

He literally made up things so that instead of a compententence the Empire was basically a bunch of morons who got luckier then the Rebllion did, on a great many things.

I could go on...but since my knowledge gets rusty I'll let someone else rip into this overrated hack they call KJA.

Although to my best knowledge I've never read anything that KJA has written for SW, after being deftly warned by several friends I made an oathe to my mental stability never to touch a single piece of it.

Crix Nadine is a Canon Star Wars character, from Return of the Jedi.

And KJA just kills him, with Durga the Hutt shooting him.

Loose the attitude problem.

Shudder KJA makes my writing look very very good. And I've been writing for oh... 2 months.

The Human male that Ackbar introduces. He's the one that reports the portion of the plot that uses the Tyderium.

And he killed him for no freaking reason. It wasn't even NECESSARY.

Damn straight. It was even worse than the method he chose to destroy the Dark Saber.

Darksaber. Ugh. Death Star superlaser destroyed by asteroids. Was that lame, or what?

Dumb as hell. Not to mention how an SSD in orbit around a moon when it loses engines suddenly gets pulled awy towards the planet. :roll:

What the fuck is the point of having a Death Star weapon if it's not even going to be used?

Jesus, that fucking pissed me off. I almost threw the book down in frustration when I read that.

What pissed me off was the the thing was TOTALLY unarmed. No guns? BULLSHIT! What self-respecting Hutt lord would build an unarmed superlaser? Bullshit.

Hutts had access to second-rate starfighters and small cap ships. They also had access to second-rate turbolasers.

Darksabre was pure bullshit.

And the way Knight Hammer was killed off sucked too. Destroyed by a lone woman, without the Force. Right.

Wouldn't the Empire had hazmat crews for dealing with damaged fighters w/ radiation leaks? Aren't fucking stormtroopers acquitely protected for that purpose?

Out of all the tihngd he did, what do you thikn was the worst? I'd go with the inconsistency and dumb plot devices.

The "Jedi Academy" Trilogy was his first foray IIRC. He also wrote Darksaber. That's all I know. That's all I WANT to know.
