I figure all these main authors have to somewhat work together since it is all canon to come up with their storylines/plot etc. I'm not sure if Stover worked on this one in a production capacity but it was a pretty excellent listen. Anything that talks more about Palpatine is legit to me. The Palpatine + Plageuis book was hella solid.

oh shit didn't see alan dean foster. he wrote splinter of the mind's eye which is a damn good book that takes place i think between a new hope and empire. it's cool they got him on board to write the big opening to the new series, i might actually read that....

i just remember liking stover's style way back when. his mace windu book is great and the novelization of revenge is good too. then a few others.

yea palpatine is sick. they definitely group discuss this stuff. if they're shooting the gaps in the last trilogy and setting up the next three episodes, there will be some cool background info.
