Once one person started blowing up planets, it just didn't seem worth it to prosecute every misguided youth who blew up a planet. 4000 years of Republic history and no planets explode, then the Emperor and Tarkin come along and there's a new Death Star or sun crusher every few months.

Up Circle posted:corran horn hosed an otter I've been assuming that's just an artifact of different EU authors not knowing which of the eighty different alien species are humans with forehead bumps, weird bugs, or furries. But I would love to find out that Corran Horn hosed an otter in the same book (or the same author) that the otters were described.

The much-loathed Karen Travis wrote a bunch of books about them in the late-Bush/early Obama time. Only thing I remember is that she wanted them to be warrior-poets like the ancient Picts

It's a freighter. The cockpit is off to the side so it can see around whatever gigantic cargo is clamped into its jaws
