    Hmmmm how about Darksaber into: Yet Another KJA Superweapon Book?

    Gotta agree with Barns about COTJ as well.

    There was a book called 'Mission to Mount Yoda'? Sounds like a porno. Did they ever wind up getting on top of the little green guy? Poor little muppet. Wow. That's a really unfortunate title.

    More recently, I thought that 'Edge of Victory' was a bit of a misnomer. How about 'Everything that Happened in the Last Six Books All Over Again' or to use that famous Star Wars quote 'I Have A Bad Feeling About This'.

    I'm not a big fan of the title or word 'Darksaber'. I suppose they could have called it 'The Not So Bright One' but everyone would have thought they were referring to Skywalker himself.




    And now for the Jedi mind trick:
    This is humor. I don't feel like stamping every snide remark as such, but trust me, it is not a serious judgement of anything I have or have not read. None of the stuff we're talking about is real. Taking it personally won't do you any good, so take a deep breath and move along. Yes, we know it is really Mission From Mount Yoda, but it was not referred to as such in the post above where it is first mentioned in this thread. Yes, NJO has some good points but some people might sympathize with comments about it's repetitiveness. No, I haven't read Darksaber and yes, I know some people think Skywalker is rather smart. That's not the point. If you find yourself unamused, take a deep breath and find a girlfriend.

    Since it will involve the fall of Anakin & the Jedi, and the rise of Vader & the Empire, change whatever the Episode III title will be to...

    "Star Wars, Episode III: Sith Happens"

    Balance Point= Little Woman:The Jedi who's not a Jedi because he ...ahem I mean she is to afraid to use the Force and thinks he is the balance point of of the Force but isn't because his brother is.
    Dang that title will take up 3/4 of the cover.And then you could have a little picture of Jacen crying to fill up that little space.

    "Sith Happens"-that is art, RaptorRage.

    And Protege-of-Thrawn: excellent, that is really good. Man, you guys are all good...

    How about, "Callista? What the h-e-double-hockey-sticks happened to Mara?" for Children of the Jedi?

    First thing that came to my mind when I saw this post: Children of the Jedi change to "Crap".

    First post on this board: Children of the Jedi change to "Crap"

    Title of all the Katarn books (and any other peice of crap that involves the Sith, including he Crystal Star) change to "Why Won't the Sith GO AWAY!!"

    Darksaber change to "KJA Shoulda Stopped Writing SW novels after the release of "Jedi Search""

    Title to the last few NJO books "When is Zahn gonna pull this series outa the dumper"

    that's all I got for now

    Jag_Fel - OMG, I'm laughing so so hard! I, Sex Machine! So Corran! I love it!

    Vong_Killer - You're totally right. When IS Zahn gonna come fix it all? After he fixed all the old crap with Specter and Vision, they just go and mess it up again!

    As for what I would change? Not to cut on the book that's cut on more then anything else, but I'd change "Children of the Jedi" to "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." Did anyone else think the part where Callista and Cray switched places was a BIT lame?
    (My apologies if I've offended any fans of Barbra Hambly)
