A&A The Official Steve Perry Discussion Thread

In case you haven't heard. Perry is co-writing a clone wars duology with Micheal Reeves-of Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter. It is called the Medstar duology and will focus on Barris Offee and a team of Republic healers. The two books are titles "Battle Surgeons" and "Healer" and will be released in July and August of 2004.

 

Within a month of each other, are you sure?

 

that's what they're saying. I asume they will write both at once and send them in simultaniously

 

There's a Literature thread on the duology that has different release dates. July and October, I believe. Del Rey has always released duologies 3 months apart.

 

My Bad. Just looked at the news article at the OS and it is July and October.

 

That's more like it.

 

Bump.

 

I really liked what he did with Shadows of the Empire.

 

Nice to have a CW book in cheaper paperback, one of the few there is. Look how many are hardcover: twice the price, and a long year of waiting for me!

 

TUCWS has a new interview with Steve Perry regarding the Medstar Duology. Check it out by clicking this link.

 

By the way, there is a quote at the beginning of Shadows: "Face it, if crime did not pay there would be very few criminals." It's by a guy named Laughton Lewis Burdock. Does anyone know who this person is? I looked him up on Google, in encyclopedias, everywhere I could think of -- nothing. Is he a friend of the writer or something? If anyone knows, please tell me. This has been nagging me ever since I first read Shadows.

 

If you like Shadows of the Empire, you can't loose the new FAN FILM - Shadows of the Empire in Action Figures - Full History with 100 minutes of duration and all characters created by Steve Perry:

Very much applauded in the last JEDICON that took place in São Paulo/Brazil in Setember 25th, the fans loved it!
Now, i want to show it in the USA too! And i need your help to make it happen.
Any ideas ? Atomfilms, Celebration in 2005 ?
We would like George Lucas and Steve Perry to watch it as soon as possible.
Thank you for your support and for your trust.

i dont think he really exists...

 

He's mentioned in Medstar as an in-universe personality.

 

I love SOTE! Is his new SW book good?

 

Yes, the MedStar books are nothing short of excellent.

 

I'm surprised that more people haven't posted in this thread....

IMAO, SHADOWS OF THE EMPIRE is one of the best written EU books, and it definitely tops my list, (followed closely by Karen Traviss' REPUBLIC COMMANDO:HARD CONTACT). The originality in the book was just....great.
After the Zahn books in the early 90's, SotE really made me love SW and the EU all over again. I particularily enjoyed Mr. Perry's portrayal of Darth Vader, but I also liked the character of Dash Rendar. Xizor, (prenounced SHEE-ZOR), was also a favourite.
His MedStar duology with Michael Reaves was also a very good read, and on my list of favourite EU books, they would be a close-tie for second, pushed only to third by RC:HC.

 

Finished reading "Shadows.." again it's briiliant.

 

I loved the Medstar books. I especially loved my hardcover from SFBC. I also loved Mr. Perry's song "Oh, Sherry" and all of his work with Journey. Except for "Lights". That song sounded like it was going to rock but it never did.

 

I thought my joke was bloody brilliant but I guess nobody else did. Anyways. I will Hold on, hold on for someone else to post.
