Over in the Authors & Artists board, Matthew Woodring Stover has confirmed that he will be doing a book tour for the Revenge of the Sith novelization.

However, he doesn't yet know where he will go and it isn't his decision anyway.

Luceno and Zahn both came to MN in their recent tours, so there's at least some chance MWS will be sent here as well.

I'm posting this so that whoever in the MNForce is in charge of these things will see it and go bug whoever in Del Rey Marketing is in charge of these things so that MWS will come here. wink

We'll have to talk to the folks at the Roseville B&N too.

I would advise asking about the costuming thing though if he does come. From what I heard he wasn't too keen on the folks in costume at the Chicago event for Shatterpoint.

Update:

I *will* be in Roseville. That's the one stop on the tour that's already been confirmed. They are one of the best Star Wars event-stores in the entire country. (And they were very nice to me indeed when I went up there for SHATTERPOINT.) Not to mention that the greater Twin Cities area is just lousy with cranky, hyper-intellectual Caine fans. I'm hoping to squeeze in a store-signing at Uncle Hugo's while I'm there, too.

happy

Curious. Well, it's of no consequence to me personally, since I don't own a costume. The most I'll wear is my ROTS T-shirt and NJO ballcap. wink But I wonder if that double-whammy of geekness might be overkill wink ... probably I'll just wear the ballcap since I'll try to have him sign it (already signed by James Luceno).

Slight change:

Wednesday, April 13 @ 6:00 PM
TALK & SIGNING
Barnes & Noble
Mall of America
118 E. Broadway
Bloomington, MN 55425
Information and contact info (scroll down a bit)

Compared to the Roseville B&N, this is a pretty crappy venue (huge echoey atrium versus inside a self-contained store) but it's closer to where I live. It takes longer to find a parking spot and find a store than it does to drive there.

The 501st provided the troops and MN Force and RL were there too! - Mr Stover was kept under...I mean escorted into the MOA by the dedicated members of the Minnesota squad of the 501st as they worked to apprehend any Jedi that might make an apperance!
And a good time was had by all!
