(by the way when can we get the Hyperspace Insider articles back, I am paying for that as well).

I don't understand why half of the articles disappeared. But for that matter, I don't understand why the site had to be made over when it had just be redone shortly before (and beautifully). This new incarnation is difficult to even navigate through.

But to lose all those old links, articles and short fiction! I've never heard of a website retooling that's done that. The worst part is that subscribers paid money for that content, and for no reason all that material is simply gone.

That's why I didn't resubscribe. I'm UK so I didn't even get the magazine anyway, I signed up for all that archive content.

So long as Titan is doing the Insider I will not renew.

Yeah I've actually committed myself to this as well- Viva Revolution!

Agreed. I dropped my subscription as well. What happened to the original articles and fiction?

The cost is obviously cheaper to run recycled stuff, but it's certainly not entertaining, and seeing "Top Ten" lists that I could see on anyone's blog rather than exclusive interviews, diagrams, fiction, etc, doesn't exactly suck me in. Also, I might be mental but it seems to have more ads as well, which I would forgive if they were paying for new material.

Still no official word on the rumors about Blood Oath's cancellation?

Either still on vacation or swamped with work accumulated over vacation, I'd assume.

Just swamped with work....

Blood Oath -- we're all doing our best to keep it in the line-up and, if the manuscript comes in soon, the book will be moved again, maybe to April 2010. If there's no manuscript, then it'll have to be dropped. Events beyond the author's control, or wishes, have caused the delays. I know, that really doesn't tell you much, but it's not my story to tell, ya know?

I'm now reading Karen Miller's Clone Wars novel, Stealth, and have been working on many Dark Horse scripts and the other usual stuff.

The Backlash cover is slightly different than the first three, but not so different as to not fit in with the overall design. We're now considering maybe two characters on an upcoming FotJ cover... but haven't seen the layout yet.

Vacation was super. Everybody needs a break now and then.

Thanks for the info, Sue. Maybe the cancellation rumors will die down now. Somewhat.

Indeed.

Interesting to hear about the possible two-character cover.

POSSIBLE SPOILER

Sue, I had a question about the FotJ sereis- was it ever decided to NOT have Jacen in the story arc in flashbacks? I just got Omen and am about to start it but had thought about that. Would I see a flashback to points in the 5 year journey with Jacen, the way some series kill characters but keep them alive through flashback scenes.

Anyway that made we wonder it it was FIRMLY decided or not. Like it was firmly decided no Sith during NJO when it came out.

Thanks! Oh and BO- I never doubted! Hope things get sorted! COME ON ZEKK!!

Ditto on the Blood Oath info, Sue, thanks. It's amazing how fast rumor became suspicion became panic became fact. I'm glad that it hasn't been canceled.

Perhaps this is out of place, but would it be beyond the realm of possibility to pass the novel on to another author if circumstances prevented Ms Cunningham from completing it? I know it's a story that many of us were very interested in reading about, as evidenced by the panic surrounding it's possible cancellation.
