What revenge? I have to say that I'm starting to fear that Boba will be killed in the last book. Something that he tries to kill some jedi and gets himself killed. But I hope they don't kill him. he is the last top five SW characters of mine that is alive.

who are your top five?
my guess for you is: (in no order)
thrawn
pellaeon
tsavong lah
boba fett
chewbacca (?)

For killing his daughter, Fett wants Jaina to kill Jacen. But, in the sneak-peek, it says Boba doesn't care if Jacen or Jaina dies. I said what the fuck.

This plot is so stupid!

They are taking forever to do minor things! They could have made five (maximum) books and be done with it! Instead it dragging on and on.

The main problem is that the opinions of the characters change every time they change authors. It's not that bad between Allston and Traviss, but once Denning joins in, it becomes really screwy!

Isamu · « **Reply #106 on:** March 05, 2008, 10:06:42 PM »

it has dragged on and there is another one coming out

GrndAdmrlPellaeon · « **Reply #107 on:** March 05, 2008, 11:59:41 PM »

See! I don't see the point of Revelation. They could have added four chapters to the beginning of the next one and not have had to make that one. Anyways what Revelation was in the book? Why call it that?

Isamu · « **Reply #108 on:** March 06, 2008, 12:24:55 AM »

nothing so far im not very far in the book yet

The revelation in Revelation was that Jacen revealed that he was a Sith, and that his new Sith name is Darth Caedus.

Im not too bothered about the length of the series, im more concerned about how it concentrates so much on a few characters in each book, with only vague references to the others - What has Luke and the other Jedi been doing during Revelation, same for Han and Leia, what happened to Wedge, Syal, Tycho etc?

I read a Interview with the Three authors and if you guys have noticed each Author has (Or Had. Bye bye Alema

) there own personal character to write about
Karren Traviss Had Boba Fett
Troy Denning had Alema Rar
And Arron Allasting(Or whatever it is) had Wedge
But i guess thats going to be excluded in the last books and there going to rap up with all the characters
Thats a minor reason why the books were long. Another reason is that each book was at least 350-400 pages long. You want them to write four 1,000 page books? Not only does it cost more money, they'd probably make alot more just selling the books seperatly

that explains a lot im sitting there reading and thinking who the fuck is darth caedus.

I think the Revelation is Ben/Luke/Leia/Jaina/Han finding out Jacen killed Mara... And if you'd been paying attention to the series at all you'd know Darth Caedus is Jacen's Sith name...

Isamu · « **Reply #113 on:** March 06, 2008, 07:12:05 PM »

yea i thought caedus was his second in command or something

GrndAdmrlPellaeon · « **Reply #114 on:** March 06, 2008, 08:16:24 PM »

What Im saying is that they are dragging on. Im not saying the books are too short. They are taking too long to explain what happens. They should have co-authored all of the books, so they can have more continuity and not so long.

Dane Kiet · « **Reply #115 on:** March 06, 2008, 08:24:09 PM »

They should have replace Denning with Zahn!

Slornie · « **Reply #116 on:** March 06, 2008, 09:09:28 PM »

I dont think the series is too long, really. I mean, if you compare it to the Prequel trilogy/Clone Wars (with which it has some very obvious similarities), that was three films/books, plus however many books/series they can slot into the three year war. So to be honest, keeping it to nine books is pretty good going.

Isamu · « **Reply #117 on:** March 06, 2008, 11:11:53 PM »

or if you compare it to the yv wars. in that case this could be a very long series

Are you people serious!? They are still expanding and finishing the Star Wars universe!? MY GOD! I havent even heard of these sets of books, sorry to be off topic, but I was REALLY surprised by the fact that they are still continuing with the Star Wars story-I thought it was finished. I really dont know anything about post Galactic Civil War, so could people enlighten me perhaps? Or just point me in the right direction? Thanks anyways.

Isamu · « **Reply #119 on:** March 11, 2008, 01:37:57 AM »

the galactic civil war is the rebellion fighting the empire. they just dont refer to it like that in the movies.
