Author	Topic: Fate of the Jedi (9 Hardcover Series) General Discussion Thread

	I just found out on www.starwarstimeline.com or Star Wars chronology that Aaron Allston has a new Star Wars hardcover novel in the works and it's from Del Rey and it's called Fate of the Jedi Book I. It's a hardcover that is 256 pages long. There is a link to it at amazon.ca. I wonder if this will be a Post-LOTF hardcover dealing with the fate of Luke's Jedi Order(since they will almost be extinct as of the Legacy Comics) or a Post-ROTS novel dealing with the fate of the old Jedi Order. Title change to reflect now-known nature of book as part of a series.

	Sounds ...slightly appealing. Its definitely a wait until PPB; and its ridiculous for that - 256 pages for a Hardcover? 27.99$ for 256 pages of what will most likely amount to (if it's post-ROTS which is the most likely - read 99.9% - candidate) a story of just more survivors of the purge being killed; which has already been done to ad-nauseum and we only have had a few stories set post-ROTS. -----signature----- Come visit my MiniCity: <a href=http://rypcordia.myminicity.com/> Rypcordia</a>

	Yeah. I posted this in upcoming releases but no one noticed. 256 pages. It's at regular hardcover price though. It looks like another series. Notice it's Fate of the Jedi 1? http://www.amazon.ca/SW-Fate-Jedi-Aaron-Allston/dp/0345509064/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215016318&sr=1 Edit: I see Eddie saw it.

	Sounds more like a Dark Times novel to me than Post-LOTF... though if it is Post-LOTF it sounds like the effects of the 2nd GCW may be lasting.

	Its definitely Dark Times setting. The only reason it might not be is because its a Part 1 and a hardcover; so it might be the kick-off to a new series (god I hope not). -----signature----- Come visit my MiniCity: <a href=http://rypcordia.myminicity.com/> Rypcordia</a>

	It can't be after ROTS... didn't ROTS pretty much give us the fate of the Jedi? The release date being after Millenium Falcon, plus the fact they moved up Falcon's release date, indicates to me that this book might be set after Falcon. Maybe Luke is finally handing over the reigns of the Jedi. Hope we get more details soon. Interesting they got Allston to kick off the first book again. -----signature----- Obama '08 Vergere is NOT a Sith. Krayt and Lumiya are lying.

	Top 3 Problems: 1) Hardcover (thus 27$) 2) Only 256 pages; for said price is ridiculous 3) Allston kicking off another series Other problems that can't be established as true problems until we get more information: 1) If its set post-ROTS/Dark Times and is about more Jedi purge survivors -----signature----- Come visit my MiniCity: <a href=http://rypcordia.myminicity.com/> Rypcordia</a>

	Page numbers change all the time. I can't see it being a hardcover with 256 pages at $27. They might have meant 356 pages. Who knows. It's not on any other site but Amazon.ca right now. -----signature----- "Head of State, a Sith is just a Jedi who's gone off his meds."-Natasi Daala

	256 pages? Lets hope thats a typo. Inferno felt rushed at 299, and I doubt they are going to make the print a different size. it's like Delrey is putting out less effort all the time....... -----signature----- I am forever seeking the damutek of Hooley Krekk Oh, woe!

	Amazon.com and Amazon.ca are both stating 256. Invincible was a HC and it was 299. Inferno was a PPB and it was 292. -----signature----- Come visit my MiniCity: <a href=http://rypcordia.myminicity.com/> Rypcordia</a>

	Hmmm... I believe there was a hint somewhere from Rostini that there'd be another series coming out soon. I don't know that Allston's ever done the non-post-RotJ eras before, which makes me wonder... -----signature----- "Victory without risk is like a pizza without pepperoni."
