Book Club Voting and Comments Thread: May/June '09

Let the voting begin for the book you would like to see the SW Book Club cover in July.

Only vote per person.

Potential books must be out in paperback format by the time you vote. Graphic novels are also fair game. Some Essential guides may qualify. (Vote for what you want, and we'll let you know if it doesn't qualify and why.)

Also use this thread to post comments, suggestion, questions, and/or gripes about the book club. As always, we are continually working out kinks and making it better, more fun (or so I hope).

I like the idea of covering a complete series, so I'm going to suggest we return to the Republic Commando series (the first book we covered was Republic Commando: Hard Contact: http://tinyurl.com/BOTM-HC ).

So my vote is for the second book in the series:

Republic Commando: Triple Zero

I'm really torn. I'd love to continue with the RC series, but wasn't all that fond of Triple Zero when I read it the first time. While a reread may be just what I need (it brought new things to light in I, Jedi, for sure), I think I'll go with a new(er) one.

Coruscant Nights I: Jedi Twilight by Michael Reaves

Can't think of a book? Check out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Star_Wars_books . It has a list of the Star Wars books but please note the following:

1) Some books listed are in hardbound only. So PLEASE check to see if there are paperbacks as ONLY paperbacks are allowed for the Book Club.

2) Comics/graphic novels are also up for grabs, but aren't listed at this link.

3) Other books (The Art of, the Making of) are also listed, but I believe at this time, they are not available for voting. HOWEVER, the Essential Guides might be *Looks to Stymie for clarification*

Republic Commando: Triple Zero: 1 vote

Interesting choice. I felt I was the only person on the planet who read and liked CN series.

But I have to say, currently reading 000, and I'm really liking it.

I vote for Heir to the Empire!

I would be very interested to see how the CN series shapes up. Though I am a bit afraid...you liked Death Star, which I hated... JOKING! LOL
