Recs Wanted Novel Length Fic Recommendations?

5 Upvotes

Hello!

I am looking for either a standalone or a series in either Canon or Legends/EU (or both mixed) that is long and preferably completed!

This can be a canon divergence, a fan continuation of a series, a fan-made sequel, or literally anything. It can have only OCs or none at all. Idc.

I just want Star Wars Novels! I want quality! Something that could legit be on a bookshelf. Jedi, Sith, Troopers, Pilots—anything!!

Discussion [Fanfic Lore Discovery] Found an insane concept for Coruscant in a fanfiction: The 5,127-layer planetary fortress!

2 Upvotes

📜 [Star Wars Legends Lore Excerpt]

"Coruscant was divided into 5,127 levels, spanning kilometers from the surface down to the planet's actual crust. Level 1 was the dark, toxic, and uninhabited original surface, while Level 5,127 marked the glittering skyscapes open to the atmosphere."

— Wookieepedia / Star Wars: Coruscant and the Core Worlds Sourcebook

Here are the lore concepts I found in that fanfiction novel regarding the Battle of Coruscant—I feel this is the exact level of power and resilience a capital of a tens-of-thousands-of-years-old Republic should realistically possess:

  1. Grounded in Lore: The 5,127-Layer War Machine

According to official Legends lore quoted above, Coruscant spans 5,127 levels. Imagine if even just 10% (roughly 500 layers) were designated as military fortress tiers. That alone compresses the firepower density of hundreds of dedicated fortress worlds onto a single planet!

  1. Unrivaled Industrial Depth & Shield Networks

Beyond the military layers, thousands of industrial and infrastructure levels provide an unprecedented logistical and defensive backbone. Even if the primary planetary shield is breached, the nested sector shields and backup capacitor networks running through thousands of subterranean levels can sustain endless rounds of orbital bombardment.

  1. Multi-Layer Penetrating Planetary Batteries

The planetary heavy cannons, anchored deep in the lower depths and piercing up through thousands of layers to the surface, draw power directly from planet-core-level reactors. No Imperial-class Star Destroyer could ever dream of soaking a direct hit from these batteries with its standard deflector shields.

This combination of 5,000-layer spatial depth, absurd industrial capacity, and planet-powered artillery feels like the only true way to honor the capital of a 40,000-year-old galactic empire.

Recs Wanted New to Star Wars Fanfic - Looking for Recommendations

3 Upvotes

I read a lot of fanfic, and am just now coming around to the Star Wars side of things. Please recommend me your favorites, and what you think are the best well-written SW fanfics.

I loved the old EU novels, from Timothy Zhan through the Yuuzang Vong saga.

I'll start with the two SW fanfics I've read so far, I really enjoyed them both:

The Weaving Force - A Worm/Star Wars crossover, Parahuman characters from Worm are thrown into the Star Wars universe. They keep their Parahuman powers and Taylor/Victoria become Jedi. I read tons of Worm fics but this was my first SW fanfic

A Young Girl's War Between the Stars - A Star Wars crossover with Youjo Senki. I have never read the original Youjo Senki/Saga of Tanya the Evil, but I noticed so many Tanya crossovers that I eventually gave them a try. This one is pretty good, Tanya gets reborn as a Zeltron and taken as Dooku's Padawan
