    if we go the "Detours"-route I'd think Terry Pratchett could be hilarious :D

    I have read precisely one thing by Gaiman -- it was a story about how Octavian was buttraped by Julius Caesar, or something.


    I am not entirely confident I like his work.

    Always thought Michael Crichton would be able to write an excellent SW book; ashame he has passed away. Also really enjoy Tom Clancy novels and think he would do an exciting SW story; especially something with the X-Wing series.

    Whats wrong with Stephen King? I think he could probably write a pretty cool one. Roland walks through one of his "doors" and strait into the Mos Eisley Cantina and a pimp-ass firefight ensues...

    Maybe Jeff Somers too?

    Nothing's wrong with either of them, but Stephen King doesn't need to write every kind of book. I have the same reaction when people talk about Ostrander writing a novel, or Stover writing a movie--as if they work in their respective areas for want of other options.

    Was the DOTJ short story bad? If John Jackson Miller could do it.. I think Stover did write a script for a tv pilot..
