Stackpole, James Luceno , Kathy Tyers, Troy Denning , Greg Keyes , Elaine Cunningham, Aaron Allston , Matthew Stover , Walter Jon Williams, Shane Dix , and Sean Williams .

Character Deaths
Many characters die within the New Jedi Order, setting it distinctly apart from typical Star Wars stories. In most New Jedi Order books a character dies, and several of those who die are of key importance to the series. It should also be noted that this is the one of the few Star Wars series in which characters not introduced in that series are killed off. This is only a partial list.
