Alright, you guys seem to know your Star Wars book knowledge. If I wanted to start reading some of the books, where would be a good place to start? Sci/fi is my favorite movie and book genre so any and all help would be appreciated.

Also, I would prefer them to be decently intelligent reads. I'd like to avoid anything kid oriented

"Shadows of the Empire" by Steve Perry (not the Journey guy)
It takes place between Empire and Jedi, so there is familiartiy with the characters -- as well as a few new interesting characters. It also does a good job of explaining how they devise the plan to rescue Han from Jabba and it also gives a more detailed background in the struggles Vader has with the dark side. Good, fast, entertaining read.

After that you can move to some of the Timothy Zahn books. Those are pretty good as well.
