If you really want me to destroy Star Wars for you, look up the Star Wars christmas special.

Here it is:

Don't spoil it for me, but does it involve well-known characters?
No. It tells the story of a couple of different normal people that work on board it.

The conversation was about the contract workers who helped build the Death Star.

read a lot of the books and I thought they were awesome.

Best one so far are the Darth bane books by Drew Karpyshyn. Very well written and a lot of up tempo story line.

The best books for me were the old Timothy Zahn trilogy. They came out in the mid 90s I beleive. Read them when I was back in school.
Rouge Squadron series books that I've read are ok.
Labryinth of Evil and Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader were good ones. (Luceno authored both)

W/o spoiling anything from the book, what's the scoop on Darth Bane? I'm somewhat familiar w/ the character, but not much. Isn't he original Sith?

No, he's the guy who started the rule of two. Before that the Sith were an organization just like the Jedi.
