Well by the time you get to it it won't be, or if you go to Australia or England it already is cos we're special.

I have to read the books. Seriously.

*Squeals*

I walked into Galaxy Bookstore (a Sci-Fi only bookstore in the city) and saw that Deathtroopers and 501st were on sale! 501st is in paperback so I'll definately buying it in a week or two.

I'm glad that the advertising for Deathtroopers has been very tongue-in-cheek even if, I assume, the story itself isn't. They're aware that it's ridiculous Razz

Looks like a fairly good book, albeit very different to anything else SW has produced.

My brother bought and read Deathtroopers already. As ridiculous as it is, I'd still read it.

I don't think the plot is too ridiculous, just, like I said, not really a generic SW concept, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Well, I mean, there's A LOT of ridiculous things in the Star Wars expanded universe. It's just that most of them are tied into energy/mysticism - not biology. I'd be much more prepared to accept an army of "undead" being controlled by a dark Force energy than literal zombies (which I believe this is?)

Of course, who am I to talk? My main little foray into the Star Wars universe involves a goop that eats matter and spits it back out as a perfect replica with extra properties.

It's an entire Galaxy though, surely there's some biological strain of SOMETHING that brings things back to life. I believe there's even something similar on Earth... someone was talking about it the other week and I only half-heard, something about a fungus or something that could make the limbs of a dead creature spasm.
