Interview with Timothy Zahn!

[@jonathankoan]

I would like to apologize again for the audio problems in the video. They were entirely my fault. But I hope you enjoy listening to my interview here. This truly was a dream come true!

[@jeremycamp0206]

Great job and a great interview (I didn’t think the audio was bad)

[@hugosalcedo691]

I thought the audio was gonna be horrendous; but no! Definitely worth hearing!!!

[@jerlg]

It was totally listenable. Really. I admit I know Zhahn only from SW. But I’m excited to go back and dig into some of his other creations.

[@Spiderweb444]

TIMOTHY ZAHN?! CONGRATS!!

[@BB-zd3jr]

Yay Jonathan! What a treat! Timothy Zahn is one of my favorite writers. Thank you for this, I'm totally fangirling over your interview!

[@that_one_guy_named_rami]

Timothy Zahn, you're such a legend and well respected in the Star Wars universe. Thank you, Jonathan, for this wonderful interview!

[@knoober3756]

Just finished the heir to the empire trilogy when I saw this interview, instantly clicked on the interview because of how well the trilogy was written. Zahn’s one of my favorite SW authors now!

[@unlikelyally5325]

You not only got interview a LEGEND, it was set up by one of his publishers! Congratulations, Jonathan! I’m so glad your channel has taken off! Fantastic interview. Btw the utter JOY you were feeling was palpable 😅

[@SpectacularWebHead]

Audio is fine. Didn’t have any issues hearing the interview. You’re actually really good at giving interviews. Can’t wait to see the rest! Zahn is a legend and my favorite science fiction author!

[@adamfisher3381]

Very cool to hear Zahn talk about his work. Also very very excited that he has many Icarus books coming. The interview was very well done! As many have said the audio wasn’t really a bother at all. Great job!

[@JigglyPKMN]

If Mr. Zahn reads the comment section, a world with 12 Quadrail novels would be a very wonderful world.

[@victorsosa5172]

thanks for the great interview! As for the audio, I was so immerse in the conversation that I didn't even notice.

[@montserratugh4194]

[@ToddsBookTube91]

I'm glad you got to interview one of your heroes

[@JohanHerrenberg]

No problems with the audio. Great interview!

[@strangementalitypaperYT]

I read/vlogged Heir to the Empire for May 4th. OMG! I was so shocked by how much I liked it. Mara Jade is my girl!

[@Blastanker]

Holy crap!!! Congratulations for this interview!

[@torranthemando7529]

The Legend himself! 😱

[@robschwartz787]

Great video and seems like a great guy! Yes please bring it on more Thrawn.

[@AuthorJohnADouglas]

Very cool interview and great to see regardless of the audio.

[@Maximus0623]

Great interview! Congrats on meeting and interviewing such a big name in Sci-Fi. That must have been fun!

[@bluearcher1559]

Im so happy for you Jonathan! This was awesome!

[@michaelmartinez3893]

Fantastic guest! Wonderful interview

[@lisadw499]

Great interview! And no worries on the audio, it was fine.

[@davidvissersbooks]

This interview was awesome! Thank you for sharing this with us. As a lifelong Thrawn fan, I hope to meet Timothy Zahn some day. I'm excited to check out his other work, I currently only have his Star Wars titles.

[@johnlennartsson4816]

Great interview!

[@danieltachon3219]

The audio issues are negligible to the point of nonexistent. Great interview!

[@SixStringSamur4i]

Very cool interview, and the audio is absolutely okay!

[@memirsultan1227]

Nice interview congrats !

[@GreatBooksGuy]

Thanks Jonathan! The sound quality is not too bad either, didn't need to turn up the volume on my end. Cheers-

[@jonathankoan]

Good to know, because I was so frustrated that it didn’t record properly. Thank you for watching!

[@Kyber_Star]

Timothy Zahn is a master of split perspectives. I have not yet read many of his regular novels, I am still waiting for an Icarus Hunt audiobook lol, but I have read all of his Star Wars books. Every time I love how he manages to make you love and hate certain characters, hate yet respect and understand villains, and show you so many sides of the story to make this overall, larger galactic tale, while resolving individual story arcs and leaving possibility for more but not frustrating cliffhangers. I almost always feel a sense of resolution when I finish one of your series, Timothy Zahn, you are my favorite author! I don't read your books because I love star wars anymore, I read them because they are jaw-dropping amazing! They make me feel so satisfied, and good inside!

[@jonathankoan]

I believe they released an audiobook for The Icarus Hunt narrated by Marc Thompson in 2022.

[@adamtoth5887]

Please give us another Thrawn trilogy, I love the Thrawn books so so much. I also hope that Thrawn is not going to be just a one dimensional evil villain in the Ahsoka series, I'd much prefer the canon version of Thrawn, where he is often actually a very nice guy, helping others, reducing the number of casulties etc.

[@James-cf2mr]

So I finally watched your interview, Jonathan. Congratulations on this great achievement!! You are one of the reasons I read the Heir to the Empire trilogy! I do have one request, can you make a playlist on your channel of all your interviews? That way they are all easy to find and those who want to watch them don't miss them. Thank you!!

[@jonathankoan]

That’s a good idea, I’ll see if I can make that.

[@James-cf2mr]

Thank you!! :) So glad you replied! Happy new year soon!!

[@TinieMassive]

Timothy Zahn is a legend

[@jonathankoan]

Yes. I just wish I could get more readers interested in his original novels as well as his Star Wars ones.

[@BaenBooksShow]

Is this a good time to tell everyone that the first book in his Cobra series is free on our website? Also, that mere hours after speaking with Johnathan, The Icarus Plot won the Dragon Award for Best Science Fiction Novel?

[@shortedave]

I ended up here because I just finished the 9th Cobra book. And the way it ended, I have to ask, when's the next one coming? It's been 6 years....

[@mrgreatbigmoose]

What a great interview! It turned into a conversation which is so enjoyable to watch, not just question-answer! You also know your subject here so it appears so much more genuine and authentic! This kind of talk produces the little juicy bits of trivia i love!

[@jonathankoan]

Thank you so much!

[@autruche6669]

That's cool !

[@johnhenrygrzyb7970]

This was cool

[@Kyber_Star]

Sequels, a pocket full of plot holes lol

[@nunyabizness6595]

No surprise since Cameron cribs from everyone. Love the guy but he is definately influenced by others.😮😮😮

[@gaozhi2007]

I'm still flumoxed as to why Harlan Ellison got a screen credit for The Terminator (because of legal) when it's very obvious that Cameron was inspired by the short story Second Variety by PKD ( which was incidentally made into the 90s film Screamers).
