Peter Ferguson
Never Heard of this book ? Is it an old one ? can you tell me more ?
>A - Ewoks animated series -- unknown
>A - Droids animated series -- unknown
I always believed these to be before ANH... Though there is no proof for
either time period... Well then again in Droids they never mention Luke or
anyone else, and why would our favorite droids be with others and not with
Luke et all... Also there was one episode where they mentioned someone was
part of the rebellion (not the New Republic)...
As for the Ewoks they never mentioned Humans, Stormtroopers, or the whole
Deathstar thing.. So I believe this too would be earlier, also Wicket seemed
younger, though this could've been because of the person drawing it...
>M - Star Wars Holiday Special (TV) -- unknown
Never saw this, but from what I heard it should belong after ANH
Wow, never knew that many books were coming out.. Sheesh... And WHAT!!!!! is
with Kevin (I think I'm a Star Wars god, but I'm not) Anderson... He's
writting about a million books it seems... His first 3 SUCKED... Sigh.. The
first book right there.. Heirs of the Force... Gee I wonder where he got that
title from.. Umm.. "Heir to the Empire" maybe ???
I wish he had an E-mail address...
Simon H. Lee
Stackpole? Hmm. Actually, I like that idea. His writing has improved a
lot over the years, IMHO.
