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 
It is true that in all the books before the NJO series you could always count on the main characters/good guys surviving. Vector Prime changed all that when Chewbacca died followed by Anakin Solo. From that point on we could never count on anyone surviving a book or series. Of interest also is the part of Revelation where Admiral Daala is talking to Boba Fett about the possibility of putting all the force users in a large Beskar cage. I admit that this will be the end of all the stories involving jedi but seriously these poor people need a break from all the violence coming from the light and dark wars. The galaxy enjoyed eons of peace before the Clone Wars and hasn’t been fully at peace since simply because it is easier to write war novels than novels in a peaceful setting. Eventually the common people will have to get tired and then refuse to fight each other any more.
One last thing I think we should move our discussions to the Invincible page because this one is pretty full.
I put a comment in the Invincible discussions. The one that says will jaina kill Jacen? but i will check both to further discuss invincible, LOTF, and Darth Caedus. But that’s why it is time for Caedus to rule, have peace at last, and hunt down the jedi.
I’m good with going to the Invincible page. 44 or 43 more days!
Look at the jacket cover of invincible. Jaina’s pretty obvious and we all expect the fight with Jacen. Maybe i just dont want either to die (more jacen then jaina but whatever), but thats not Jacen. The hair, its grey…and why not show his face on the jacket? The traditional two blades crossed with grunting faces of one another…no we all expect it so thats what we all see…. Also look at the background. Its not a star destroyer. Its stone and blocky….not some random asteroid corridor either. My money is on Korriban. Jaina’s fighting white eyes on the jacket cover. That does not mean i dont think the book will not have the two of them fight, though i want the fight to be with Luke but even im not delusional enough to believe that will happen.
I have one last delusional hope which i know is a million to one in odds. Remember what inspired this whole transition of Jacen’s? The Sith Lord who just sat back while the universe remained stable? Sith Lords do not need to rule the galaxy if the galaxy is in order. What if Jacen is thrown out of power and as a result the galaxy goes back to its calm ways? He can go into exile, all main characters live, and i have a reason to keep reading….
One last thing. Jacen swore in “Bloodlines” that once he became Sith Lord he would flow walk back to the time when his granddad turned and seek console….i want to see that conversation before (if!) Jacen dies….
I never understood the flow walking thing. Can he influence events when he does that, or does he just watch stuff, then freak out?
