Yeah, I hope that Boba Fett: A Practical Man will be included in a novel. And I can't see any novel better for it than LotF #5: Sacrifice. Unless Rep. Com. #3: True Colors or +Rep. Com #4+? Anyway, the decision's not mine...

And, sorry if you've already read these questions but couldn't/didn't want to answer, but:
  • I'd like to know if you have an idea of a date when things about the new contract with Del Rey will be fixed and announced?

  • A question about Sacrifice: Will we see an interview of Karen Traviss about it?

  • Then another, about DarthWho (I'm not sure I have to write his exact title): Do the five names among which fans had to choose correspond to what you (and the authors) imagined? And if not, does the elected name, at least, correspond to what you imagined?

*" The one with Boba Fett right before the Vector Prime
novel, where he meets Nom Anor"*

Will there be more to 'The mystery of Vergere' or did Lumiya cover everything in Betrayal?

Always more, there is.

Sue, any idea when the short e-book story that Traviss did will be included in one of these novels?

Which short story? She's written a few.

Sue, I am curious about the tie in between the Republic Commando series and the LoF series.

It was Karen's idea, with our approval.

Hey Sue . . . loved Sacrifice.

Will there be more to 'The mystery of Vergere' or did Lumiya cover everything in +Betrayal+?

Tasty- I'm going to ask you the million dollar question. Is their any chance that we may see the complete Ewok and Droids cartoon series ever released in dvd? This is really the last piece of star wars stuff that is kind of hard to get.

I'm hoping Jaina is on the cover of Invincible. I thought a certain character might get a cover, but after reading Sacrifice I don't think that'll be happening.

+ And will we see a definite leader in the Confederation? The Corellian prime ministers don't seem to wield much authority on Bothawui... are they ever gonna unify?+

Someone did emerge as the military leader of the Confederation at the end of Exile. I don't want to spoil it for anyone who is behind on their reading, but you can read more about them here! This character was eerily absent from any mention in Sacrifice, though.

The final cover for Revelation is going through the rounds right now, so we might be able to post that one in the next couple of weeks.

so any idea who's on it?

Sue, I am curious about the tie in between the Republic Commando series and the LoF series. Is this something that Traviss inserted on her own or is this something that Lucas Books/Del Ray wants done to tie the SW universe together?

I think its a pretty neat touch for fans that have read other books, it adds another layer to the story.

Ah, that makes sense, so is it safe to assume that for any future picture of him in a brighter setting his freckles would be more prominent and his hair would be redder then?

I would hope so!

So Ben's lightsaber is blue? I was kinda hoping for a unique color... nobody's been able to fill Anakin's shoes since his purple blade was silenced in Star by Star.

So Sue, we gonna see more of Lando soon? It wouldn't be a war without him. And will we see a definite leader in the Confederation? The Corellian prime ministers don't seem to wield much authority on Bothawui... are they ever gonna unify?

I was wondering Sue, who created the titles for Inferno and Invincible? Was is Troy Denning again?

The authors generally submit a dozen or so possible titles, we kick them around here until we find one we like. Invincible was everyone's favorite.

And will we be seeing the Mandalorians in some LOTF books besides the ones written by Karen Traviss?

Cannot predict now.

Also, Sue, you have been on fiyah with posting lately! You might even say... you've been an Inferno.

I feel the heat. B-)

*His freckles aren't prominent enough to be seen in this darkish cover. *

Sue, a while back in one of your blogs you said that "Something so major and incendiary will occur during the Legacy of the Force series that we cannot even mention what it is.". Has this event happened in Sacrifice or is it still to come?

PS: Sorry for being so vague but I'm trying to avoid spoiling Sacrifice for those who haven't read it or are still reading it.
