Well, inaddition to the post NJO books already mentioned (a Trilogy by Denning, I believe, and a book(s) by Zahn) The Lucasfilm lady told us at a Q&A that there will be a 9 book post NJO series (10-15 yrs after) with the Solo children and Ben Skywalker as the primary charecters. Aaron Allston will be writing three of the books.
Incidently, Pablo is an a-hole.
More updates later.

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

Can you explain why Pablo is an asshole? We all know he is, but why, exactly?

I'll take a wild stab and he probably got the In Person version of Pablo going "I don't give a damn what those techies think...I'm right!!!!".

Paraphrasing here, but the way he said it seemed to me to be refering to that thread on SW.com awhile back....

Seriously he got hissy fits when that stuff happened so meeting him for real and hearing him spout had to be kinda offsetting.
Gotta love when people's egos are that huge.

Pablo seems to delight in insulting fans who disagree with him. It's apparently how he chooses to use his position. What could be easier than simply accusing anyone who disagrees with him of being "narrow-minded"? Never mind the fact that he is just as firm about his view of the SW universe as any "techie" is; apparently it's only "narrow-minded" when the trench is not running in a Pablo-approved direction

Also, at the Author Q&A (which Pablo was...Moderating?) Every fricking male up there had a Vandyke/goatee. The DarkHorse editor looks like Tom Green.
