Those bastards!

Ok, so many of you know I was hooked Big Time on the New Jedi Order saga of Star Wars novels, right?

Well, those bastards have begun a new saga, set after the NJO. The following is badly-written publisher's copy, and should not be taken as indication of quality. Allston writes well, and I have faith the book is better than this sounds:

Allston follows the Jedi Knights' ethical dilemmas and intricate battle maneuvers as they set out to diffuse a developing conflict between the Galactic Alliance (GA) and Correllia, Han's home planetary system. When Ben infiltrates the Correllian Centerpoint Station, a mega-Death Star with the power to move and destroy planets, he must confront an AI that believes it is Anakin Solo (Jacen and Jaina's late brother). Jacen also faces a grave, shocking choice about his future as a Jedi when he encounters a Sith. Although Han, Leia, Luke and Mara haven't lost their mystique in middle-age, Ben and Jacen steal the show in this new installment that should please Star Wars fans eager for an update.

Ben is, of course, the child of Luke and Mara. Fortunately, this series will be only 9 books, and not the 18 or so of the NJO.

I can't help it. Say what you will about the prequels, these novels are, on the whole, quite good. And I'm a big ol' fanboy at heart.
