I haven't read the RotS novelization yet, but while he's grammatically inconsistent and sometimes doesn't carry SW canon very strongly, he does a good job with plot and OCs. I'm very impressed by that.
*nods* Tell only what you absolutely need about the OC. If you wonder if you should cut the info because you can live without it, then cut it. Minimalization is good with OCs, at least at the beginning. Once the people warm up to them, then you can dish out a little more info as you go and as you need.
