    Plus, books can smell great too. And flipping the pages just isn't the same on the iPad. But I'm glad to have the capability to get books that I can't get physically anymore. Like some of the Stargate novels that have gone out of print, but are still available through iBooks.

    Dust!! Thats the thing I hate the most about them! LOL! I must admit my iPad was wonderful today, I'm still reading Mercy Kill, slow reader due to RL issues, but I sat in one doctors office and wrote fiction on it for 45 mins and then in the next office I read a chapter of Mercy Kill....versatile. ;)

    Hehe yeah that's the advantage of a tablet, though I'd probably use it to watch videos.

    If this was solely a Mercy Kill Fan Club, I would agree, but its not.

    Mercy Kill is the first X-wing book we have gotten in 13 years. I think it deserves the honor.

    It's also (IMO) a nice 'what the heck is this all about' teaser - at least for the time being!

    Sounds like fun! I almost bought Mercy Kill for kindle, but got the audiobook and the hardcover instead.

    Wow, double post.

    Are the X-Wing comics available online in any legal format?

    What's not right is that there are 2 incidents in chapter 24 that may have made you cry.

    You are referring to the very end of the chapter, right? The good news is that you will laugh again...keep reading.

    I like to read anytime, but my best reading time is just before dinner on the exercise bike. No lie, I took a vacation day on August 8 to read Mercy Kill. Dropped my kid off at school and had a "me" day.

    Be careful. I've dreamed of being in the middle of dogfights and touring star destroyers. I thought they were awesome dreams, but a little nerve racking. I pretty much only read SW, reading Revan at the moment. My husband says I can't possibly understand it since I have never played the game. However, I'm enjoying it.

    I dream that nearly every night mate! I just read the 'cameo' appearance out to my son (who is home sick today) and he was duly impressed.....




    Daddy,....seriously? :p
