Just out of curiosity Sue, is this US reprint technically a second edition a
I honestly don't know. It's not my project, and I doubt that the new front matter/copyright information is in yet.

Sue-
Is there a reason the Nomi Sunrider novel keeps getting pushed back? Is it like Apocalypse? Because originally it was set for November 2010, then May 2011, then I think May 2012, then December 2011, and now September 2012? I hope it's really good. And long.
Also, is the first of the duology one of the duo by Paul S. Kemp? Also, any chance you could say when the Wraith Squadron novel, Jeff Grubb novel, or Paul Kemp's duology is set? Any chance any of them are after Fate of the Jedi?
Thanks.

Ok, but I call a moratorium on further delays on the Nomi Sunrider novel unless it really needs extra time for finishing.
That poor thing's been pushed back by almost two years from it's original release date.

This is probably a dumb question, but will the anniversary edition of Heir to the Empire be released in paperback, or is the hardback the only way to get the new material?

Yes, it's the same one. There was a problem with pages sticking together in the first edition, so Random House pulled a bunch back and have done another printing.
Just out of curiosity Sue, is this US reprint technically a second edition as I believe that some US editions did make their way to customers when it was first released - IIRC Eddie of StarWarsTimeline.com got a copy imported from Amazon.com? |

I am actually all for the longer break in between releases. Sometimes I feel a bit rushed trying to keep up with the novels. Also I didn't know there was a new Wraith Squadron book coming out. Thats Great  , I love that series. And thanks again for all of the "keeping us in the loop" information. |

Thanks again for the answer, Sue. It's interesting that Drew hasn't announced the novel himself - I don't think he realizes that Del Rey announced it either.

Sue, can you give any reason why Apocalypse keep getting pushed back?
Editorially, it's been too stressful to have them any closer together. The time crunches to make production deadlines have been unwieldy. It's better for us to have a little more room between them.

I was wondering about the Jedi Dawn novel that was slated for November 2012...
Right now, that one is in August 2013.

I wonder if the novel in October is Drew Karpyshyn's The Old Republic novel that was announced during Celebration V...
Yes, that's the one. I don't edit the Video game related books, so wasn't on top of what's been announced and what hasn't.

The Complete Vader isn't a reprint for the United States, because it was never published here. A printing error caused the book to be postponed, though it did release in the UK and Canada.

Hi,
Thanks for the updated schedule.
Is the Complete Vader that's mentioned a reprint of the one that was published in 2009 (this one) ?
Also, the 4th Coruscant Nights book was scheduled for November of 2012. Is its omission intentional?
thanks, |

Fate of the Jedi got pushed back again???? That is disappointing. I'm very curious about the unannounced book for later this year.

Random House has made a change for the release date of Riptide - they now say it will be released on September 27.
Yes, this is correct.
Here's the 2011 calendar as it now stands, beginning with KNIGHT ERRANT that just came out.
January 15 - KNIGHT ERRANT (John Jackson Miller)
February 22 - BACKLASH reprint (Aaron Allston)
March 22 - DECEIVED (Paul Kemp)
March 29 - SW Craft book (Bonnie Burton)
April 26 - ALLIES reprint (Christie Golden)
May 24 - CONVICTION (Aaron Allston)
May 24 FATAL ALLIANCE reprint (Sean Williams)
June 21 - HEIR TO THE EMPIRE ANNIVERSARY EDITION (Timothy Zahn)
July 19 - CHOICES OF ONE (Timothy Zahn)
August 16 ASCENSION (Christie Golden)
August 30 - THE FORCE UNLEASHED II reprint (Sean Williams)
September 27 - RIPTIDE (Paul Kemp)
October 18 - Something that hasn't been announced yet, I don't think.
October 18 - THE COMPLETE VADER (Ryder Windham and Pete Vilmur)
November 29 - SHADOW GAMES (Michael Reaves and Maya Bohnhoff)
For 2012, I have titles in months, without actual on sale dates... and I'll list only the new fiction releases that are somewhat set for the moment, but only for the moment...
January - DARTH PLAGUEIS (working title) (James Luceno)
April - APOCALYPSE (Troy Denning)
May - Untitled (Jeff Grubb)
July - Untitled Wraith Squadron (Aaron Allston)
August - Lost Tribe of the Sith anthology (John Jackson Miller)
September - Untitled Nomi Sunrider (Alex Irvine)
November - Book 1 of a duology.
I hope I got the dates right.....
