Double Blind happens towards the middle or end of the "6th month".

Sacrifice takes place a little over a month after Geonosis (the reference to Raxus Prime, whose battle happened 1 month ABG). So it would be after Ellusion Illusion

Mace Windu hasn't been moved.

For more info, check out my "Attack of the Clones & The Clone Wars Timeline: Summaries & Exact Dating", as it is the most detailed timeline available for that era at the moment- events are broken down to the day.

http ://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=9386719&start=12449184

Though it current lacks details on LOTJ, as I haven't read it yet (just got it though), it has pretty much all the other answers you could want anbout the timeline.

I've got some 'timeliny' questions as well.
We know that "Republic: Double Blind", the finale of "Shatterpoint" and "Legacy of the Jedi" all take place in month 6 ABOG, DB in week 26, to be exact. What is the other titles' placement in a timeline on a weekly basis (or, let me say this differently, does LotJ take place before or after SP/DB)?
On the same ground, which story does take place earlier, "Republic: Sacrifice" or "Elusion Illusion" (EI is firmly set for seven days ABOG, while it's only said of "Sacrifice" that it takes place shortly after Geonosis, and since Aayla's in both...)? Also, has "Jedi: Mace Windu" now been officially pushed back to before "Republic: The New Face of War" or is it still at 3 months ABOG?
I hope you can forgive me all those questions, but I'm working on a timeline (well, who isn't, these days ;))...

Please stop the "Is not" "Is too" thing, it's bloody annoying (and I'm not British, so using that word shows just how it's unnerving me).

Hi I have a quick question.I thought Id read in here a while ago that some of the NJO authors got together to discuss long range plot ideas.Can someone confirm or deny this for me?

Oh and if the Darkhorse people are still around....awesome job guys,except for delaying the second half of Biggs story.

The third part of Legacy of the Jedi is firmly set after Jedi Apprentice #8 and before #11, when Obi-Wan is aged 13. Pages 145-6 are set in 32 BBY on the trip to Naboo.

It says the OWK/AS section is 23 years after the QGJ/OWK section; the four main parts of Legacy of the Jedi work out to 89, 76, 44, and 21 BBY (though the Clone Wars timeline puts it 6 months after Geonosis i.e. late 22 BBY).

but that puts a 20 year difference in between! Qui-Gon said Obi is almost a Knight so that is 2 or so years b4 TPM. That is only 12 years in between.

(Unfortunate to have Dooku become a Padawan aged 13 whereas if you asked George he'd probably say it was about 8, though.)

It draws some nice parallels, though. Dooku and Obi-Wan both enter single Master/Apprentice pairings at 13 while Qui-Gon and Anakin enter their single Master/Apprentice pairing at younger ages (8 and 9 respectively, I believe).

Fett was in one of the Young Jedi Knights books. I'm not sure which one...

He was actually in several. The first one he appeared in was Shards of Alderaan, which began the Diversity Alliance saga of the Young Jedi Knights series. He was in nearly every book of that five book span, concluding with The Emperor's Plague.

Great to see these glimpses of the pre-Episode I Republic, by the way. (Unfortunate to have Dooku become a Padawan aged 13 whereas if you asked George he'd probably say it was about 8, though.)

All the talk recently about wether Boba Fett is in the cover of one of the upcoming NJO books has me wondering. When exactly was Fett's last official appearance in a novel or comic?

Question about Legacy of the Jedi:

Are the years off? Cause at one point I believe it says 30 something years after the Jedi Apprentice Series. That would put the Clone Wars Section after III.

No, it isn't. That is why some people have a problem. It was supposed to be in the DW paperback, but wasn't put in on acident. I all ready have it in eBook form, so I don't really care.

Sremmuy, sorry for the late post, but I would also like to say that I concentrate on the jedi of the NJO mostly because they are the shatterpoint of the NJO. If they aren't written well, than the quality of the whole series suffers greatly. If they are written well, than any minor details that aren't written well don't affect the quality. As it is, personally, I think it might be leaning more towards the former.

half of us want Ylesia in the TUF hardcover, and half want it in the paperback.

And all of y'all need to remember that the cover for The Unifying Force has already been set, without the notice that Ylesia will be in it.

It's already too late for it to be in TUF hardcover. I wouldn't mind seeing it in a printable format; it's still paper.

Okay, everybody, I think the VIP's probably get the point - half of us want Ylesia in the TUF hardcover, and half want it in the paperback.
