It’s a big one, folks! Sunny and Alan join Zach, Leo, and Evan to quickly go over the last week’s news and then tackle the recently released Old Republic novel Revan by Drew Karpyshyn, author of the Darth Bane Trilogy. Included is the final recap of the original Knights of the Old Republic video game, your MERQ’s, and reading responses to the novel. Also, the winner of the give-away of the digital version of Revan is announced!

I love the name for today's episode. XD

One itsy bitsy, tiny problem... how can I listen to the episode (which last time, you said would be spoiler filled) to find out who won the Revan give away? XD

All spoilers are saved until the end of the episode. We announced the winner before we moved on to the Revan novel.

Can't wait to listen!! Such a great book!

Ironically, the Revan review today coincided with several other fansites giving away Revan novels today.

Cross of Glory I believe it is called.

I think there was some back and forth with editors, Lucas Licensing, and the author about using very Earth concepts in Star Wars novels. Timothy Zahn has a few annotations about it in the 20th Anniversary edition of Heir to the Empire.

Orb left by the thought bomb on Ruusan also had the trapped souls that basically drove whoever contemplated it too much mad.

My carefully constructed mysticism about Lord Scourge has been ruined...

That said, Jedi Knight story is pretty much part two of the Revan novel.
