At Legacy Expo we had the unbelievable opportunity to talk with one of the early architects of the Expanded Universe—Barbara Hambly! We reflected on her experiences writing Children of the Jedi, Planet of Twilight, as well as short stories in Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina and Tales from Jabba’s Palace. She took us on a thrilling adventure down memory lane, recounting some of the behind-the-scenes action that resulted in the creation of these epic tales we all know and love.
