I'd say I have around that many, maybe a bit more, plus the books in the attic... so maybe 300? 350? I have the SW Jedi Apprentice with Obi and Qui-Gon. A couple Galaxy of Fear too, but other than that, no. _________________

Or, you could read the Darth Bane novels, there's two of them, shortly a third is coming up - well, by shortly I mean December - and they're what I'd define as the perfect Star Wars novel. _________________ Time to start again.

Xander Vos Sith Emperor Joined: 08 Jan 2006 Posts: 19752 Location: The Sith Temple Oh awesome!! Finally!! Looks good. I hate with a fiery passion that they chaned the format of the books though. I have three RC books with the Republic Commando: [Title] format on the side, with the little Republic Crest or whatever it is, and then Order 66 comes along and screws it all up, much like I'm sure this one will. _________________ Time to start again.

Ever since I played Republic Commando on the Xbox, I was curious to see how the books were. Oh, and do any of the books involve any of the guys from the game? _________________

Xander Vos Sith Emperor Joined: 08 Jan 2006 Posts: 19752 Location: The Sith Temple Republic Commando: Hard Contact [Introduces Darman and the rest of Omega Squad on a mission on Qiilura. Also introduces Jedi Etain and Jusik.] Republic Commando: Triple Zeo [Links the game with Hard Contact by having Delta (The squad from the game) and Omega go on a terrorist-hunting mission on Coruscant.] Republic Commando: True Colours [Can't remember this very well even though it was the last one I've read, as I didn't really like it. Links in with the LOTF series, and sets up a lot of what happens in Order 66] Republic Commando: Order 66 [As the title suggests, Palpatine orders the Jedi killed, and Omega squad flees the Republic to Mandalore, leaving Delta behind (I'm guessing, haven't actually got to Order 66 - happens 350 pages in! For a book called Order 66, Order 66 occurs rather late on! ] Imperial Commando: 501st [Delta Squad deals with things in the new Empire, and presumably Omega Squad gets up to no good on Mandalore. Though I'm not sure who leaves the Empire and who stays so who knows.] _________________ Time to start again.

I mean, I know they're clones that have to take orders and everything, but they were my favorites. T.T At least Sev wouldn't have to see it. _________________

Xander Vos Sith Emperor Joined: 08 Jan 2006 Posts: 19752 Location: The Sith Temple Order 66 is great because it covers that mission to Kashyyyk, which is the bit I'm up to now incidentally. Interesting that when she's writing something very rigidly not hers that she has to stick to, it actually gets GOOD, and has no Mando in it. But yes, they were soldiers very strict to the rules, unlike Omega, so it's logical they stayed. _________________ Time to start again.
