I've missed something obviously. Traci, why is there a Vader "You got served" banner up in Lit? tongue

I mean, not that I'm complaining...

And the hot chick is really the sister of the good guy, but they don't know it, and they kiss.
Which is kind of messed up.
I mean, what if they had done it instead of just kissed?

I have no idea why that banner is up in Lit. raised_brow (I like it, though - except for the dark gray style sheet.) You want it here? mischief


More Del Rey. Goody. Looking forward to it.

I broke down tonight and bought the first Coruscant Nights book, Jedi Twilight. I haven't started reading it yet, but the excerpt from the second Coruscant Nights book, Street of Shadows, caught my attention.

Spoilers......

The excerpt is from Captain Typho's POV. Apparently, he was secretly in love with Padme and had accepted the fact that they couldn't be together. (The excerpt makes it clear that he has no idea that Padme and Anakin were married.) He's now racked with guilt over Padme's death since he wasn't there to protect her. He knows that she went to Mustafar to meet Anakin and that she died due to strangulation (Yay. Here we go again... rolling_eyes ). With no outward signs of strangulation, he has guessed that she was killed by a Force user, but he doesn't necessarily believe Anakin did it. He's headed to Coruscant to find Anakin to learn the identity of Padme's killer and avenge her death.

I just got Jedi Twilight too. I just noticed the excerpt from the back today as well... Oh, well, it's just a story right?! LOL!
But the good news is the book as a whole isn't too bad. happy So hopefully you won't feel like you wasted your money and time reading it! tongue

I don't read all that much.

I have read all the star wars movie novels.
I have a timeline list of the novels.
I do get into the books and at times do get to read some of them.

What I do is figure out which series of books I will read and find them all and then read them.

I just read "The Clone Wars" junior novel 2 days ago.
I will get the Clone Wars novel and the force unleashed novels this week and then read those.

I recently read "The Bounty Hunter Wars" series.
I finished after that
The Truce At Bakura
The Courtship of Princess Leia
Tatooine Ghost

I really liked thoughs.

I just got through with the new Clone Wars novelization. I enjoyed it quite a bit!!! Karen rocks at writing Anakin, that's for sure.

I started reading Jedi Twilight. It's good! I really like the narrative style.


Hey Rhonda & Nicki- At the Con in Little Rock, one of the comic sellers cut me a deal on some tpb's of the Marvel SW series and I came across a really good issue last night. It's very Luke/Vader/Anakin-centric and has a rather poignant conversation between ghostie Anakin (circa Sebastian Shaw) and Luke.

Oh! And there's a great scene between Luke & Leia when they're talking about Vader. Leia says:

"But Luke, even if most people choose to forget it, he turned back to good at the end, and helped topple the Emperor...for you! You don't need to be ashamed of him."


WORD. cool


Even back then, Marvel got it when the novels never have.

Amen, babe!!

I need to read Jedi Twilight. I love Michael Reeves' style. The man is an incredible writer. (And I love it when he and Steve Perry team up.)

And I've decided not even to bother reading the last LotF book. I've had enough mental anguish this year. I don't need any more. I'm pretty much done with post-ROTJ SW novels, especially anything that's a duology, trilogy, or arc. I hear arc and I think Ark, as in Ark of the Covenant, as in Lost Ark, as in "I wish Del Rey's story arc of nine books would be lost before they were published". (I'm glad you followed me on that one.)

I need to pick up the comics again. I've read one TPB each of KOTOR and Legacy. I need to reread them and get up to speed, mainly so I can know just what the hell Traci and Nicki are talking about. tongue

shock Shame on you! shame_on_you

Don't make me destroy you. /Vader

I enjoyed Jedi Twilight. I'm not sure if Michael Reeves naturally understands Vader, or if he has picked it up over the years collaborating with Steve Perry.

How sad is it when we are all shocked that we enjoyed a SW novel? raised_brow

Now to read The Clone Wars novelization....

Yes, you definitely need some background information before you can join us in discussing the size of Zayne's Talisman.
