Gatekeepers of the Holocron Episode 1 - Agents of Chaos Book 1 w/ OG Starwars, SW Skran & JohnGets

For the 1st Episode of Gatekeepers of The Holocron, we have joining us ​ ⁨@OGStarwars⁩, @Star-Wars-Skran & @johnGetsGaming on to deep dive & discuss the Star Wars Expanded Universe. We conclude our discussion of Agents of Chaos: Hero's Trial (Book 1 of the Duology) by James Luceno; the FOURTH book of the EPIC 19 book story arc of THE NEW JEDI ORDER.
Tonight we will be covering Chapters 17-29 of the book. If you missed Books 1-3 of the New Jedi Order, stay tuned we will be get out archived PURIST livestreams that covered those books OR will be releasing videos for Book Summaries.
This was a massive undertaking by Del Rey publishing & Lucas Licensing. The fine details to this massive story, honoring George Lucas & his use of Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey. After the controversial & polarizing first book Vector Prime; the baton was passed to a Star Wars Expanded Universe veteran from the Bantam Era, Michael Stackpole. James Luceno originally only the architect of the outline and main story arcs ended up writing the Agent of Chaos Duology. We get more Yuuzhan Vong lore expansion in this book as we are introduced to the Priest Caste, Eminence Harrar & their Castes ways. This first book of the duology is very Han Solo-centric, yet still expands the Vong lore & moves the main plot forward nicely. This was the first of many books to come from James Luceno, one of the greatest Expanded Universe Authors in my opinion. We start the story with the Yuuzhan Vong decimating the Library World of Obroa-Skai.

The New Jedi Order Series was originally planned as a massive 29 book series, which ended up being settled on as a 19 book series. It broke the norm for the Star Wars Expanded Universe of Standard isolated stories & trilogies. NJO also made the Star Wars Universe a lot more mature & It also rose the stakes significantly. Nobody was safe in the readers eyes; especially after the release of it's first book Vector Prime.

Some time in the near future Disney Star Wars will release their Rey Palpatine New Jedi Order movie or trilogy. Which as all Disney Wars won't live up the the greatness & timelessness of the Star Wars Expanded Universe. As TRUE Gatekeepers do - Here on GATEKEEPERS of the HOLOCRON we will pre-empt Faux Disney Wars & provide the SUPERIOR EU Alternative!

Join us and help me preserve the lore, canon & continuity of original Marvel & Star Wars as created and intended by Stan Lee & George Lucas.
