Ben Skywalker/New Jedi Order question

[Alli, Fleet Commander]

This is just a few random questions, because honestly back when I knew very little about the EU I still managed to go out and get the novel in which Ben is born(haven't read it however). However I haven't read the series yet, so I honestly don't know the age difference between him and his cousins. I'm estimating 11-13 years? without looking at wookiepedia.

I'm just wondering how old is Ben by the end of NJO? And also what is the time span of NJO? because I'm curious. >>

Another random question: when does Mara and Luke's wedding happen? I know it happens in the comic Union, however where does that fall in the scheme of everything?

Ben is born during the NJO so he is about 1-2 years old by the end. Jaina/Jacen were about 17-18 or so by that point. Anakin was two years younger than the twins. I think the entire NJO took about 2-3 years worth of time overall.

The comic book Union falls after the Hand of Thrawn duology by Timothy Zahn which takes place before the NJO starts.

If you are interested in the overall continuity, the Essential Reader's Companion is awesome in putting everything in order including short stories and significant comic titles.

The ERC is already under the Christmas tree, I just can't have it until the 25th (or at least the weekend before). D:

See I should have probably looked up when the Dark Nest trilogy started. I figured it was right after NJO and that's why I was confused because Ben is more than 2-3 years older than Allana.

I'll figure it all out eventually when I finally sit down and read them all. Thank you!
