	One of the best recent additions to the fold, sadly I know next to nothing about him or his non-SW books other than that he was close to Brian Daley and they co-authored some books... -----signature----- Mastadge

	I still consider Hero's Trial my favorite of the NJO. And I'm not even a big Han Solo fan. Still, I love his attention to detail and the cloak and dagger storyline Hero's Trial gave us. -----signature----- "How many of you does it take to kill someone you call coward?" [Jacen] taunted.

	James gets my vote for writing the Episode III adaptation when the time comes. So much policial and action and suspense will be there, it would be a perfect fit for him! -----signature----- She loves me. I love her. MEP + KRD

	He wasn't the worst SW author I've seen, but he wasn't bad. The thing I disliked most was that he was constantly bringing in old characters just to bring them in, without any specific objective in mind, like when he mentioned Akanah, Callista and Gariel. -----signature----- Fanfic Padawan of NYCitygurl Legacy of the Force: Endgame http://boards.theforce.net/beyond_the_saga/b10477/28169084/p1/?1

	Cloak of Deception was one of the best Star Wars books ever written. I seemed to capture the personalities and characteristics of the movies better than any other Star Wars book. -----signature----- “It’s Right to Rule,” Pellaeon said.

	Agents of Chaos were some of my favorite NJO books--definitely my favorite non-hardcover stories--but I had mixed feelings for Cloak of Deception. I thought the political intrigue/detective mystery aspect of the story was great (everything The Phantom Menace should have been), but the action scenes to me felt kind of weak. This makes me a little hesitant about the New Jedi Order hardcover #5, which by nature should be an epic, sweeping battle. On the otherhand, I did like his action scenes in Agents of Chaos (particularly the Battle of Ord Mantell), so I suppose it could be good. Well, I'll be optimistic and hope that it turns out great. -----signature----- DECEASED
