The Eighth book in this awesome series – Star Wars Legacy of the Force : Revelation is set for a Feb 26, 2008 release.
Unfortunately it’s written by Karen Travis, the author that wrote the worst book in the series Sacrifice and killed Mara Jade Skywalker.
Who is on the cover? Looks like Jacen.
What’s the Revelation? That the Sith suck?? that He killed Mara?? we’ll find out…
Show Me SciFi 
Maybe Darth Vongus.
” But it would be nice if Caedus would kill Han in front of leia and luke. I’m demented sometimes. Hope that denning gives tahiri a darth title. That would be cool.”
I would also like to see Han get killed, but i dont care how just want it to happen.
On the subject of Luke’s death Jedi are supposed to be able to use the force to manipulate the proceses inside their bodies. If this holds true I do not forsee Luke dying of old age. This would also be out of line with the “Live by the Sword, Die by the Sword” concept that is pretty much universal. Luke will die one of three ways: He will die like Anakin Solo did in NJO fighting unbeatable odds. OR He will kill himself in shame for his failures. OR he will choose to seperate himself from life early using the force to be close to Mara in the way that Yoda gave up definitley ascending to a higher plane of existence where he will remain an active player for the rest of time. Remember that he talks to his grandchild as a force ghost. This is something that we have never seen before as Obi Wan went away after a number of years. In the Words of Obi Wan “If you kill me now I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.”
Don’t know how or when they will kill Luke off, but one thing i know for sure is that he will not kill himself. Whether its depression or shame, no suicide. Luke will probably die in combat, like anakin did in NJO, or will will die facing a very dangerous foe. Anikan solo’s death was probably the best death in the whole EU book series. Facing all those enemies at once. A heroic stand. Another great death was with Ganner in traitor. Taking on all those vong to give jacen time. “None shall pass!” i’m hoping that there are deaths in Invincible. Hope it is a dark book all around. Caedus wins, many jedi die, and “dark times” begin again just like ROTS.
I second that! I’m very curious as to what role the Koraban Sith will play. I got the impression that they didn’t like Caedus waging a war in there name. They had some plan to have the Sith Empire regain there former glory, though, by making the same mistakes as the Dark Brotherhood. Too much much power spread thin amongst the ranks. The basic way of the Sith makes that almost impossible and very unstable..” to be united in hate is a fragile aliance at best”, Kreia said, and, I feel that is true. So what role will they play. Maybe Caedus will find an apprentice or maybe perhaps ( I’m hopeing for this ) Tahiri will prove herself by proving that she is the stronger apprentice. Caedus and Tahiri, to me, make a perfect team as, they were both changed by the Vong and have benifited and become stronger for it. So far the Empires deal to join the GA is pretty ambiguous. It didn’t seem solid enough. Will Daala work with Caedus? She has the Mando’s on here side! And Jaina is pretty much one of them now. Are the Mandos going to favor the Jedi? Some of this doesn’t look good for Lord Caedus. More reading and interperatation maybe will help turn up these questions. Always a pleasure to read your comments mliscky, a TRUE passion for the dark side is always admired.
Maloch, did you hear of the legacy comics that have been out the last couple of years? They take place like almost 80-100 years after LOTF. There are many sith, like the brotherhood from darth bane’s time, and they take control over the galaxy and rule it. I don’t read the comics, so i can’t tell you exactly what happens. But i read people talking on line that these sith on Korriban in LOTF are the ones that take over in the comics. Why would the authors write them in? I don”t know. If the sith on Korriban don’t do something in the last book, their whole write in would be a waste of time. But in the comics, nobody knows about the sith, not even the jedi, so they can’t be discovered at all in LOTF
I beleive that tahiri will be caedus’s “one” true apprentice. She is the only person who is on Caedus’s side. No other jedi are. And i think they do make a good master-apprentice because they both have been “transformed” by the vong. People are saying that tahiri is just pretending to side with Caedus to maybe bring him down. Don’t agree with that at all. She killed somebody in cold blood. That’s not pretending. once you start down that path of evil, you cannot stop. One thing will always lead to another.
I think the sith conspiracy mentioned in fury is not so much of revival of the rule of two as a use of Jacen to kill off all the jedi. Once Jacen kills off all of the jedi including Ben, Luke will finally realize, too late, that he is the only one who stands a chance of taking him down. He and jacen will fight and kill each other. The Jedi Order will be demolished forever unable to rise again because no one will be left to teach. The Sith that have been hiding in fear of Luke will rise and bring peace back to the galaxy. It makes sense because the GAG government has more in common with the Sith Order than the Jedi Order.
I never really thought of that. That would be clever of the sith on korriban to let Caedus Kill off as much jedi as he can. like you said admiral wilhelm, the more caedus can kill off, the easier it will be for them to rule. Especially if caedus could kill off luke.
That is exactly why the Sith on Koriban MUST be destroyed. Only one may live but, only to answer questions and then…..there can only be two…
