trackback
We’ve known since at least November that Jaina would be on the cover of the final book of the Legacy of the Force series.
Now the first images of the actual book cover are available and it looks to us that she’s going to have a showdown with her brother Jacen – Darth Caedus.
That is a confrontation that is – Inevitable – maybe that should’ve been the name of the book. Then again maybe Invincible refers to Jacen/Caedus….
Invincible’s release date is set for May 13, 2008. Amazon is already taking pre-orders on this the final installment of the Legacy of the Force – it’s a hardcover so it’s more dough than the paperbacks. Amazon currently has a neat offer though, they’re starting at 34% off list price and if you pre-order now they’ll give you an extra 5% discount. Sure beat paying full price the day it comes out..but i wonder if they’ll actually ship it to arrive on May 13th..
Show Me SciFi 
That’s my problem brad. The authors brought the comics into the EU books and I think that was a mistake. For we all know now that the one sith on korriban were the ones in the future comics. They take over and rule in those comics, so it will taint the future novels that come out because we know the way the galaxy will shape out. I always know that good will overcome evil, especially in books. But it is always nice when you have a evil person or a evil race, like the vong, that are powerful, unstopable, even murders’ and have the good overcome everything to beat them. NICE. Great reading.
Wilhelm, that’s the whole dilemma of star wars. You are right when you say the neither side can win. As we saw before, you only need one survivor of jedi or sith to keep the orders alive. And even if the Sith are defeated, you always have jedi that turn to the dark side for one reason or another, thus starting a war or the fighting again. Force users will always be around, therefore always jedi and sith. Might be considered the forces “balance.”
I hope Leia and Han’s parts are more involved. We haven’t heard really anything from then since they got Allana of the Anakin Solo. You would think that since it is their son who became a sith and trying to “take” over the galaxy, they would be involved in trying to take him out, however that might be. And I hope we see Caedus killing off some jedi or main characters. Propably won’t happen, but either Luke, Leia, or Han. Maybe Tenel Ka, Allana, Jaina, Zekk, or maybe Jedi masters. In this book we need to see his full power, his ruthlessness, and just being a evil ass sith lord.
I can’t remember if Daala ever found the person who killed her husband and gave her the patch on her eye. She said she was just waiting for the right moment for revenge on the person who did that. Or was it one of the Moffs? If it wasn’t a moff and someone in the GA, Maybe she might be the one to help Caedus with a surprising backstabbing. Then she will have her revenge in a sweet, sweet way.
mliscky you have a very sick and twisted mind. Han and Leia will never kill their own son even though he is now Darth Caedus. The most they would condone would be the freezing of Caedus in Carbonite and entombing in Mandolorian Iron (my personal favorite as it leaves the story line open for later development. As for the Comics and the EU you know that I am very opposed to the comics in general since like I said earlier all one has to do is draw a few pictures put in a little dialouge and look you have forever ruined the rest of the EU by killing Luke or revealing some other story. The Comics should restrain themselves and write only in between the books filling in little gaps in the story line like where Jacen went after the Vong were defeated.
wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
time to change your tampons comic haters.
Hey now folks. Doe anyone know what’s going on with the Darth Plegious book? I’ve been looking forward to that for days ( forever ).
The comics. Uhmm, I don’t really think that they have to be tied to the books. They, to me, are to separate entities. So, I don’t think just because there something going on some hundred years in the future in the comics doesn’t mean that it should dictate what happends in the novels. And I’m not harping on comics either, just saying that is could be just that easy to keep the novels and comics separate. LOL to me, and again I’m not taking anything away from the comic books, the books can be the real story and the comics can be the what if’s. Are they not like that now?
So anyway. Let’s be done with the book/comic war or whatever.
We’re here to celebrate and speculate what is to come of our new Dark Lord, Darth Caedus.
Oh, and yes, some congradulations are in order. I now am a Dark Lord. thank you.
How do we put a picture up on this deal???
hahaha. lol. Congratulations maloch…er i mean Lord Maloch. What was your final test to become a Sith Lord? I think I heard that James Luceno was going to write the book, but for some reason it was put on hold. But I heard that a while ago. And I think i read it on-line so that could have been totally wrong.
Getting Caedus caught in carbonite is a decent idea. He then could be freed in the next series by his apprentice tahiri or whoever that might be. But to trap him will be almost impossible unless he is knocked out or really badly injured. But if badly injured, can he still live locked in carbonite? I’m leaning toward in this final book that Caedus will either die or win and rule as a new emporer. And you know which way i’m leaning toward.
