    I am also a big fan of Start Wars.
    I saw tho movies many times, and read 3 extra books.
    11 years to the next one? omg, that's to much...
    I am looking forward to see Mara Jade, as i remember from the books she is a red hair.

    must check the interview.

    Very interesting interview with George lucas.
    the sons of Luke/Mara and solo/Leia they appear in some books, that's nothing new. But i never thought that the empire was extincted after ROTJ. After that, Dark Jedis appear in books, so the battle between good and evil light and dark didn't end, but it's not by a big organization as the Empire. It's more like separate groups... dark Jedis... there's no more a dark emperor, so the remaining dark Jedis are they independent from each other?

    Sith and Dark Jedi both make appearances in the books, and always will because the dark side is always tempting the Jedi's to turn.

    After the Emperor was killed in ROTJ, the Empire split into factions ruled by warloads, and the Rebels disbanded with the formation of the New Republic, eventually establishing the central command on Corusant. After the Warloads were eventually beaten the Empire continued in its own part of the galaxy, know as the Imperial remnant, ruled by the Grand Moffs, and still remains as such in the New Jedi Order era, which is around the same time Episode VII is set.

    After reading some of the later books in the New Jedi Order era I've now started reading the novels that begin at the point after ROTJ, and working my way through the timeline in sequence. They are a great series of books and I highly recommend them. The first to begin with is "The Truce at Bakura" which starts the day after RPTJ ended. After this "The courtship of Princess Leia" and then "Tatooine Ghost". I found all three of these novels very good and well worth reading.

    After that there are some trilogies that continue the timeline, starting with The Thrawn Triliogy, the The Jedi Academy Trilogy, and the Callista Trilogy... and then loads more. 100's of novels have been released to date and ever growing. I already have about 80 of them.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    That is something I was also wondering myself. He is 66 now, so in 2021 that will make him 77! Not sure he will be up to it even if he is still alive.

    As i said above, he really should make it now, then he can use some of the original cast. Although I'm not sure many of them would be up to it. Although I would hate if if they picked new actors to cast in the same roles and ruined it.

    Yes here in Portugal we like "START" wars.... i guess we will start a new one this year... the goverment is destroying our country.
    In 1494 we "divided" the world in two with the spanish, in the Treaty of Tordesillas, we would have half of it to discover and they, the other half,
    we were a big nation, but since 1800 we start do go down and down, and in the last 3 years.... it's like titanic... i dont' know how long will the people handle with this situation...
    So yes, "START" wars ...!! :-)
