Sorry if this is old, but it appears Amazon is taking pre-orders for a new paperback version of the complete Thrawn Trilogy, being released on the 26th February next year. shock
It's a bit expensive though, considering you could buy them separately second hand for less than 10 pounds...


Amazon US link (no price yet, though)

They're saying it's only like 200 pages. Wasn't each of the three Thrawn Trilogy books well over 3-400?

I think this might be the comics. The publisher is Titan Books Ltd and they publish the Dark Horse editions here in the UK.

The US version of the omnibus is hardcover and comes out this December, and it's 420 pages. I doubt they'd be able to squeeze 18 issues worth of comics into 200 pages. The novels together have an even longer page count, so either the page count on this thing is completely inaccurate or this is some kind of truncated version.

The art varied since there were different artists for each adaptation. The art in HTTE was alright, and TLC was better. But the art by Terry Dodson in DFR was great. It gave us some really nice New Republic character profiles:

Talon Karrde:


Garm Bel Iblis:

It's also famous for giving the first ever sighting of Padme Amidala, though it's canonicity is moot.



And say what you will about Jacen later, but he's cute as a bub.

i hope they fix the continuity errors. like replace sebastian shaw with hayden christensen after the twins are born. and katana i agree with you about jacen he was cute as a baby. it's hard to understand why he became a evil insane madman. we will find out in fotj. i personally blame vestara khai.

The art may not be incredibly notable but it might be worth picking up the trade for this image alone.
