BALLANTINE
https://www.amazon.com/Thrawn-Star-Wars-Timothy-Zahn/dp/0345511271 gonna go out on a limb and say it's even better than the original trilogy. Same author though - but now its cannon!
Below are my recommendations (in no specific order)
If I had to recommend one book over any other, it would be Guardians of the Whills. It's amazing, I've read it twice this week.
Yup. Timothy Zahn has a book out in the new Disney canon, and I believe he is (or will be?) in Rebels. I've not caught up on that series (yes, yes, bad me), so I'm not sure on that part.
Edit for book link: https://www.amazon.ca/Thrawn-Star-Wars-Timothy-Zahn/dp/0345511271
In case you're not in the loop, I'm talking about this book: https://www.amazon.com/Thrawn-Star-Wars-Timothy-Zahn/dp/0345511271/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1504637556&sr=8-1&keywords=Thrawn.
If you are arguing that this book isn't canon, I don't know what to tell you man.
In addition to Rebels Season 3, Timothy Zahn is writing a new Thrawn book https://www.amazon.com/Thrawn-Star-Wars-Timothy-Zahn/dp/0345511271/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473423312&sr=8-1&keywords=thrawn
Ooh, I didn't know there were gonna be even more Thrawn books coming out, this is great news!
Anyway, the first book in the new trilogy is just called 'Thrawn'
followed by 'Thrawn: Alliances'
and concludes with 'Thrawn: Treason'
Helps that Timothy Zahn (the original author that created Thrawn) is advising them for the character, and wrote a book to go with the new canon.
Well it will depend on your definition of 'Affordable'.

Funko Pop's! A good choice for <12$. And there's a wide variety of characters to choose from.
Thrawn is a good re-introduction to one of the most memorable Star Wars villains.
Battlefront II: Inferno Squad serves as a companion piece to the new game coming out next week.

Battlefront II Might be a good choice if your kids are into gaming. I've played the beta, and loved it despite some flaws. But be forewarned, this game has been getting slammed online for it's loot-box/progression system. Also available on Playstation 4 & PC

Thrawn, is an anti-hero in the Star Wars universe. His standalone book is really just set in the universe, only really contains the Emperor and Tarkin as characters you might know.
The original Thrawn Trilogy is why your description made me think of him, but he is the antagonist, so you mostly follow the protagonists. It is much more of a Star Wars book, reading Luke/Leias stories as they fight him, but he is always one step ahead. Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising, and The Last Command.
You don't have to be a star wars fan to enjoy Thrawn, but the trilogy might take some admiration (but is still a good read).
HOLY CRAP HOW DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS
There is also a new canon book called Thrawn by the same author, Timothy Zahn.
It's just called "Thrawn"
