Tee hee.

This news, if it's true, reinforces my belief that Death Star and the Feb. 2008 hardcover are switching places.

So is Force Unleashed actually the Feb 2008 or is a seperate contract like the Republic Commando Novels. I'm sorry if i'm coming off as dense, I just want to be clear?.

The Force Unleashed novel is probably just going to be the novelization of the video game (I hope it doesn't suck sad ) and it's being released in September of this year. The Feb 2008 novel is something completely different.

That and comic books, plus something from Palace Press. Who the heck are those guys (Palace)?
Got this from a link in another thread:
RebelScum.com posted:
Palace Press and Insight editions, the publishers of the Dressing and Sculpting A Galaxy books, will have a large softcover book call The Force Unleashed: Art of the Game, by Hayden Blackman and Brett Rector. This 224 page book will feature tons of pre-production art, much like the image above.

I think (admittedly pure speculation) that the Force Unleashed novel (and the comic, as well) will be to the video game what the Shadows of the Empire novel was to its video game -- shared story aspects, but somewhat different takes on the overall story.

Does anyone know when Sue returns from her vacation, or if she still plans on giving us some info about the book?

Sue returned today (with a vengeance!), and here's what she had to say about our books:

Eeusu Estornii posted:
The FORCE UNLEASHED novel is coming out in hardcover. Paperback generally follows 9 months to a year later. This is an additional book.... a separate contract.

What else... I haven't checked sw.com yet to know if the Feb. 08 book has been announced, but if it had, someone would have said something, right?!?



Eeusu Estornii posted:
The Force Unleashed releases have moved the Feb 2008 announcement back. But it is coming soon.... and no, it's not the same book as the Feb. hardcover.

Well that's good, I figured that the FORCE UNLEASHED would be a seperate book. Still, having the news pushed back (and now no set date as to when we'll get the news) is a little disappointing...
