Feb. 22nd, 2007 12:44 amSo, we have a new SW book coming out set shortly after RotJ. It has the Rogues (the main cast too, but ROGUES)! Even Hobbie, who we haven't heard from since Union! Though this is set WAY before that, so we still don't know what he's been up to for the past, oh, TWENTY YEARS. :p It looks like a return to Warlord of the Week.
And you know what? I couldn't be happier with this development. People like to deride it, but after eight years of NJO and the like? I've realized how GOOD we used to have it. Warlord of the Week means that things actually get RESOLVED in a reasonable amount of time. None of this dragging one conflict out for FIVE YEARS stuff. A trilogy is a nice length. Nineteen books? WAY too long.
So yeah, even if the title is a bit lame (Luke Skywalker and the SHadows of Mindor... okay, REALLY lame :p) I am most pleased with this development. :p
AND? It's a STOVER book. :D
Warlord of the Week! Warlord of the Week! Warlord of the Week! *does the Warlord of the Week dance*
