2008 Books/Dates/Special Notes

January 19th - Darth Bane: Rule of Two by Drew Karpyshyn

February 16th - Star Wars: Outbound Flight by Timothy Zahn

March 15th - Allegiance by Timothy Zahn - to be held at StellarCon featuring Timothy Zahn 

April 19th - Heir to the Empire by Timothy Zahn

May 17th - Dark Force Rising by Timothy Zahn

June 21st - The Last Command by Timothy Zahn

July 19th - Specter of the Past by Timothy Zahn

August 16th - Vision of the Future by Timothy Zahn

September 20th - Survivor's Quest

October 18th - TBA*

November 15th - TBA*

December 13th - Annual Holiday Party


For our *TBAs here are my suggestions:

Tales from the Empire - despite the customer reviews I read several of the stories in here. There is a Boba Fett one that rocks and a really good "bridge" story about Mara Jade.

Death Star - A book about the badest weapon (outside of the Sun Crusher  ) . . . what's not to love?

Mara Jade: By the Emperor's Hand - this would be something that everyone would have to buy and it is a graphic novel/comic. I've heard good things about it.

We could start the Legacy of the Force series which was our alternative to this year's series.

Or we could start a 2 year adventure with The New Jedi Order series.

OK, sound off.

I just finished Death Star about 3 weeks ago and it was honestly one of the worst books I've ever read. It was grueling and pointless and in all actuallity, the second half was pretty much just reciting A New Hope with some added characters who don't really matter at all. Don't bother. I'd recommend Jedi Trial if you haven't already covered it. Its a great read to say the least.
