To clear up some confusion, Anakin was supposed to be the major character in The New Jedi Order series, and he would eventually succeed Luke as the Jedi Order's leader. George Lucas, however, rejected the idea, believing that Anakin's path too closely mirrored the storyline of his namesake in the prequel trilogy and so led to confusion. Consequently, Anakin and Jacen's responsibilities were switched, including the death that was later planned for The New Jedi Order: Star by Star.
So, George Lucas did not order Anakin Solo's death. He just opposed the idea of Anakin Solo being the major character of the New Jedi Order.

Thanks bro

Remember, George Lucas did not assist in the EU at all. He ignored it all. 🤓

[@Hesen31]

@@RyanTheDark I mean if he doesn't care about EU why he didn't allow Vader's returning and recommended Palpatine's returning?
Why he wrote the prologue of legends book Shatterpoint?
Why he provided some lore to TPM novelisations?
Why he didn't allow Luke's death in NJO and suggested Chewbacca?
Why he continued Timothy's lore and made Coruscant the capital?
And legends lore is rich, some contradicts maybe happened but anyway, legends was beta canon, so it was normal.

The Yuuzhan Vong war was particularly traumatic for the Solo family. Families throughout the galaxy were destroyed by invaders, but the Solo family is the most notorious due to their fame.
