Yeah, that was in one of the LOTF novels I'm pretty sure. As for the SS puppy thing being an urban legend, well it doesn't surprise me at all tongue

There's Underlord Pehri in Jedi Twilight. Being head of Black Sun's a neat tribute to a friend, if you ask me. tongue


Actually, he was introduced in Shadow Hunter, at which point he was a low-ranking member.
But he is based on the real Dal Perry, so you could say that making him Underlord in Jedi Twilight was a nice gesture.


doh! Haven't read Shadow Hunter in a long time, didn't remember that at all. But yeah, you're right, it's still nice of Reaves.

Been reading Invincible today - noticed a funny little James Bond nod:
"What will it be my friend?"
"A Sapphire Fogblaster - spun not mixed"

I like the idea of Ben being a force using secret agent tongue
