There are parts of the novels today that Zahn would probably re-write considerably, but they have coherent vision and are a natural extension of the OT. Unlike the sequels that went 'lol soft reset'.

Also, the characters in the novels are actually smart. And there is only one time characters infiltrate a Star Destroyer, unlike 3(+) times in the sequels.

If you go back and re-read the original Thrawn trilogy, the actual prose is loving godawful. The characters don't have conversations with each other, they just deliver monologues.

And every other sentence, someone responds with "Point."

Point point point point point.
