Heir to the Empire is the first book in a trilogy of novels known as '' The Thrawn Trilogy '', all written by renowned ''Star Wars'' author, Timothy Zahn . PLOT The book is set in 9 '', in a time where the New Republic is young, and a new threat has arisen. From the Imperial Remnant section of the Galaxy, comes Grand Admiral Thrawn , a new military leader of the Empire hoping to overthrow the New Republic and restore control of the galaxy to the Empire. RECEPTION ''Heir'' was extremely well-received, making it onto the New York Times best seller list, and has long been a fan-favorite. Its influence on the ''Star Wars'' Expanded Universe was considerable; the EU had previously been primarily elaborated in RPG games, comic strips and other unpopular media. ''Heir'' revitalized and opened large portions of the post-Empire EU (such as the very name of the former capital of the Empire, " Coruscant "), and also introduced two of the most beloved EU characters- Mara Jade and Talon Karrde .
