So now we know what the successor to Legacy of the Force will be – it’s called Star Wars Fate of the Jedi which will first show up in April of 2009 and will span 9 books – all hardcover – ending in April 2011.
Lucasfilm’s Sue Rostoni has outlined the series – in rough – and here it is..
April 7, 2009 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 1: OUTCAST by Aaron Allston. Luke and Ben attempt to follow Jacen’s previous journey in the hopes of discovering what and how various Force-using groups influenced him to accept and use dark side powers.
July 7, 2009 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 2:OMEN by Christie Golden. Continues the FATE OF THE JEDI story….. major developments, new characters, lotsa stuff happens.
October 6, 2009 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 3 by Troy Denning. More hapans… er, happens. Sorry for the typo, it means nothing.
February 2010 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 4 by Aaron Allston.
May 2010 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 5 by Christie Golden.
August 2010 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 6 by Troy Denning.
November 2010 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 7 by Aaron Allston.
January 2011 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 8 by Christie Golden.
April 2011 – Hardcover: FATE OF THE JEDI 9 by Troy Denning. Wraps up the series….
We can hardly wait…will this series hook up and connect to Dark Horse’s Star Wars Legacy?? Not likely but is sure will bring us at least 9 steps closer.
Denning’s involved? Count me out, even if I was inclined to give Del Rey more money.
lol, I wasn’t even paying attention all hardcover? Why don’t you just pick up readers by their ankles and shake the change out of their pockets Del Rey…
…the next great series. Please. If you read the bit that is going to be available in the Falcon book due out, you’ll read that this series is going to suck! Big time! First, it starts off two years after the death of Lord Caedus. Next Daala is now going to disban the Jedi council cause the galaxy doen’t trust them. Isn’t that what was gong on in the begining of the Lagacy Series. Isn’t that why they voted in Cal O? Like I said, ” lame.” I wish Del Ray no luck at all in regards to sales of there ” first ever all hard back series ” F them. I can’t wait until some idiot reads one of these books and puts the plots online, so I, and many others can happily not buy these books. Hey if it’s good we’ll probably consider but, with the line up of book and the fact that Denning is one of them.. oooohh geeezz. In out of this one.
