Is there a reason Millennium Falcon was pushed ahead, and Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor pushed back?
Matt is late with his manuscript, and Jim is early -- just made sense to swap them to give us a bit more time.
Sue,
Thanks for the clarification on the change in pub dates. Can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor! I love the cover art and am anxious to read this since this is the timeframe I'd love more novels to expand upon.

Though not a word, I'm thirding that "OMG" squee-fest about the apparent Allston book. That man is my hero. Awaiting more news with great anticipation.
Hope you had a Happy Fourth, everyone, and that all your digits are intact.

lol I'd fourth that "OMG" but I was the one seconding Jaina's news so I can't...Ah well. I'm very happy to see Allston back in business here and with it being called Fate of the Jedi, the possibilities are endless.
I think Sue said somewhere else recently she can't confirm anything about the novel until they have the official announcement (press release) ready.
If I had one complaint about it...it's the page count...
256 pages for a $27 hardback?
But Amazon has known to be wrong about page counts before and this is so early before it goes into presses. That'll change.
Anyway...GREAT job LF, DR and Aaron on teaming up again!

Is there going be a subtitle (unofficial, even) to Karen Traviss' Clone Wars novelization?
"The Clone Wars Book 1" is so generic as to be almost meaningless.

They can't count the pages of a book that hasn't been written yet.

No subtitle -- it's the novelization of the movie -- Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
That's it.

Sue is there going to be a book presentation at San Diego Comic Con of upcoming SW novels like Millennium Falcon and Fate of the Jedi Book 1,Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor and the new contract?
Also I hope Fate of the Jedi by Aaron Allston will be a Post-LOTF novel series set after MF since Millennium Falcon will be Han,Leia and Allana's story. Will Fate of the Jedi be Luke and Ben Skywalker and the New Jedi Order's story or will it be set after Revenge of the Sith?

Hey Sue, there's a ps3 game novel coming out in January by William Dietz. Is this a future star wars book or something totally unrelated. Here's the link link

Allrighty. Can I at least assume that the subsequent ones will use episode titles as subtitles?

That should quiet the fears from here, TheForce.net boards and elsewhere.
We knew that Amazon was a bit crazy here on the pages since Fate of the Jedi is so early into the planning stages and they can be a bit...deceiving on page counts...but it helps with you confirming that those fears are unwarranted.
Thanks Sue!

There will be a panel dedicated to The Clone Wars program, but not one on general fiction. Frank Parisi (LFL editor) and Carol Roeder (LFL director of publishing) will be on the panel along with Leland Chee and Henry Gilroy (writer of Dark Horse Clone Wars comics) and others. Pablo will moderate. I won't be there this year.

Can you reveal when 'The Clone Wars' is set?
PS - You must be having a bit of a busy time of it at the moment, what with Clone Wars, Force Unleashed, Coruscant Nights and a couple of stand-alone novels all due out over the next few months!

Whoa, no Star Wars EU panel this year at SDCC? What a huge disappointment. I thought it'd be such a fantastic opportunity to discuss the recently finished LotF series and the upcoming MF book.
