Неужели Зан, наконец, услышал мои мысли и совершил великое дело: написал-таки книгу, где события показаны от лица и через восприятие Трона!
Этого так не хватало во всех его предыдущих произведениях, и я всегда сокрушалась по этому поводу! Теперь мой интерес к новой книге резко повысился.

StarWars.com: Going back to the character of Thrawn, you write frequently in Thrawn’s thought patterns — seeing through his eyes, how he views the galaxy and is looking at the details of design, artwork, culture, and language, and then using that to predict future behavior. How did that come about? How do you even put that together?

Timothy Zahn: [Laughs] To be perfectly honest, I’ve resisted that idea from the very beginning, because of the very thought: How do you show this alien thought pattern or this alien observation without being distracting to the reader? They persuaded me that I needed some of this from Thrawn’s point of view, but we went through two or three different variants of how to do that until we came up with what we’ve got. So I’ll ask you: Did it feel alien without being distracting?
