Just bumping up this useful resource thread - it says on page 1 the last update was done in 2006 - is this right?


This thread HAS been extremely useful for me. It's the resource I used everytime I need to go pick up the next book from the library.

Anyone know where the comic Shadow Stalker should fall? The Wook says it's in 1 aby, but is there any indication of perhaps what other stories may be around it?

Plenty, actually. Vader mentions his defeat on Aridus, from Classic Star Wars: The Return of Ben Kenobi, as having occured "months ago" at the beginning of the comic. The human replica droids Luke will encounter and see perish in Classic Star Wars: Ice World also appear, meaning that it must take place before that story. I'd place it in the fifth month after Yavin.

I see that the untitled Darth Plageuis novel is still on the list.

Hm. Glove of Darth Vader still on the list? What will it take to convince people that those stories DID NOT HAPPEN in SW continuity?

Slimy!

The de-canonization of all the source that say they did? confused

Er. Anyway...

Is there any official word on the placement of Chewbacca and "Emissary of the Void" in the NJO series? I've seen Chewbacca both after VP and after DT, and "Emissary" before, between, and after the EoV books. Any confirmation within those sources or out of them regarding where exactly they belong?

Also: is there a reason for putting Survivor's Quest between Junior Jedi Knights 2 and 3? Something about their internal timelines that suggests this, maybe? I haven't read them in forever, so I don't know.

Off the top of my head, i can't recall- I probably based that placement on another timeline's listing. I can only speculate that the passage of time in the series is implied to overlap with the presumed start date of SQ.

Has there been any discussion as to where in the timeline the film/novel "The Clone Wars" takes place?

Uh... wow. Geez, the things you miss when you get wrapped up in real life for a few weeks.

I guess it was too much to ask for a timeline at the start of the book. I've heard some people say that it takes place 22 BBY... so maybe I'll put it on the bookshelf after Shatterpoint? But then that raises the whole question of the validity of Jedi Trial and then...

Hmmm... maybe I should click that link and try to catch up?

At this point, since the solution they seem to be eventually aiming for once the series finishes is that there will be some timeline compression- so the material with Anakin as a padawan/becoming a Knight, will he condensed down to the first year of the war, after which the series/this new novel occurs.

Though we're not sure how that'll affect things focusing on other characters, like Medstar.

For now, it seems the best place to locate the new book would be after Jedi trial & Yoda: Dark Rendezvous, but before LOE.

TheForce.Net places The Clone Wars between Jedi Trial and Republic Commando - Triple Zero, so it'll be just under 2 years into the Clone Wars.
