Darth Ruin's story is actually the one real link in the overall Sith story which really hasn't been explored (apart from the very beginning, of course) ; to all appearances, the Jedi Order and Republic had beaten the Sith and stabilised the known galaxy, but then Ruin comes out of nowhere to royally mess up the works, creating a new Sith tradition that Darth Vader will eventually directly inherit and causing a war and darkness that rages for 1,000 years before ending bloodily at Ruusan. That makes him one of the more successful Sith around, worthy of the name Ruin.

Unless, of course i've gotten confused with my Sith names raised_brow I'd also really like to see Darth Millennial and how he got the Prophets (the real ones) started and i'd like to finally see them in action, and learn how the deuce Millennial managed to get away with it (perhaps a big smackdown between Prophets and the Sith Master/Apprentice happy )

I've also got a mental blank - i should know who Darth Anddendu is (and how to properly spell him) but i can't for the life of me remember confused

How about a Mike Stackpole novel about the Millennium Falcon's early days during the Clone Wars perhaps being flown by Corran Horn's grandfather or maybe one set between the trilogies by Stackpole about the Horn family during the purge?

I'm really hoping for a novel covering Jacen's journey between The Unifying Force and The Joiner King. By Stover, of course.

Or maybe a Darth Ruin novel could be cool.

A Darth Ruin book about the foundings of the new Sith Empire, its formation...That, something on the mysterious Andeddu, the battle of Corbos and end of the Schism, the war with Xendor...those'd be rocking

It won't be. Those books are on a separate contract.

Just remember that Andeddu is an anagram for undead, with an extra d.



And I predict a Dark Times novel.

I very much doubt that. We already got Dark Lord and the upcoming Coruscant Nights trilogy, and I don't think DR wants to step on the toes of the upcoming TV show too much. It's possible though, but not likely.

But when the wind blows, my temper implodes,
High above a pit, filled with sharkticons,
Down will come hardcover addicts, beaming no more. ©

Of course they won't, and I'm glad for it. So what if they're more expensive? I like em.
