My favourite writer is Timothy Zahn, the creator of such great characters as Thrawn, Mara Jade and Talon Karrde.

Timothy Zahn for his outstanding contribution to the Expanded Star Wars Universe, but my highest praise goes to George Lucas for creating that universe in the first place :D

Zahn. He created Thrawn and really started the whole SW novel thing.
