EP III - Novelization [SPOILERS!!!!]

[Eosin the Red]

I have finished (and slept since this morning). Overall, it looks to be well done but there are a few .....ahemmm, quirks. They aren't avoidable by the novel, so I can gracefully ignore them.

Ugly stuff....Yoda versus Darth Sidious, Mace versus DS, Anakin vs Dooku.

I'm not going to read the book until I've seen the movie.

Same here, Morrus! I don't want to be spoiled more than the photos that were posted up here awhile back. That was enough until I see the movie.

He is sorta up and coming. So far everybook of his has been superb IMO. He has 4 books outside of SW - the best two being Heroes Die and Iron Dawn. He also has 3 SW novels out - SW NJO: Traitor, SW: Shatterpoint (Mace Windu), and EP III. I believe that these will be the end of his SW run for the time being. I can't decide if Heroes Die or the SW novel Shatterpoint is his best.

EP I was fair - great for the insight into QGJ never been much of a Brooks fan. I didn't read EP II, really not an RAS fan. Acually, I read very few SW books (basically the Zhan stuff) and had not read anything since EP I until I saw Stover's name on Traitor. It was very much a dark mind screwing but I was somewhat lost in the setting. Shatterpoint on the otherhand took SW to a field where all the bets are off.

I couldn't get through Traitor. It was difficult to try to read and I put it down and never picked it back up. I've not bought any of his subsequent works as a result and am a bit iffy on getting this one although I most likely will to complete the threesome in hardcover. The previous two are autographed by their respective authors but I dunno if this one will get autographed as well...

Its not out until May 3rd...but its leaked. Have a look around and you should be able to find it, though its probably best that I don't link you to it. Sorry. But this is definitely a great soundtrack. Very good music, very powerful stuff.


And BS...

I'll most likely pick it up as well.... I've got the other two. And love listening to them.

Must be one hell of a leak for Wal-Mart to have it on the shelves already.

Its on the shelves now, too? Hmm...haven't heard that yet, but the figures did leak a couple weeks early, too...though they rang up as "Do Not Sell"

Okay Eosin (or whoever else has read it), I need a big fat spoiler for a project I'm working on. Basically, I need to know whether

Spoiler

Anakin knows his kids survived childbirth and are out there somewhere. I assume he knows during the story that Padme's pregnant, but I guess I could be wrong on that.

Anyone who helps me on this will get something special. And no, I can't wait until the movie comes out to find out; I gotta know now!

From what I know from spoiler reports:[sblock]Anakin DOES know that she is pregnant, however he assumes she's dead before giving birth. As to why he assumes she's dead...well, I'll leave that much out of it.[/sblock]

Again, though, that's just from reports and could be wrong.

What AMG said ---

Spoiler

DV believes that she dies while he is healing from getting his hind quarters handed to him by Obi-One but.... I think he does know on a gut level due to some other force stuff (dreams and visions).

 

[Tarrasque Wrangler]

So does it come right out and say that

Spoiler

he believes the kids died too

or at least hint as much? That's the tidbit I've really got to know.
