Re: Star Wars Episode VII
I have similar concerns. A sizable chunk of the old EU was terrible so I'm hoping there is much tighter quality control, as Edwardowan suggests.
I still don't get why people are extolling the virtues of this new EU. There was a lot of crap in the original EU, with a few gems in there. Now all the crap is canon as well. At least before the good authors (Zahn, Stackpole, Allston, Traviss, etc.) could write around the stuff the fans thought was stupid. Now they can't avoid the stupid.
