Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader Roundtable - Ep 189
Q: Is this for you, thinking about the fact that Vader is not in the first third of the book, is this more of a Vader origin story on the one hand or a Jedi extinction story on the other?
It feels more like a Jedi extinction story since it highlights their struggles against the Empire's suppression.
Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader Roundtable - Ep 189
Q: Do you view these three in your mind as an authentic trilogy or as a marketing tactic?
I think they have common themes and there is some connection, but I wouldn't call it a true trilogy since they are independent stories.
Dark Lord: The Rise of Darth Vader Roundtable - Ep 189
Q: So what do you say? Let's go down the statsheet and get into the details.
The book was released as a hardcover in November of 2005, tying in with Revenge of the Sith.
The Biggest Plot Twist in Star Wars History? (KOTOR Finale) - Ep 187
Q: What do you think the reveal of Darth Revan means for the player in terms of character agency?
The revelation enhances player agency by forcing players to reckon with their past choices and the implications of their character's true identity as Darth Revan.
Barbara Hambly Interview (Legacy Expo)
Q: Was the Calista trilogy planned or intentional?
No, it was affected by another author's desire to use Calista, leading to an ambiguous ending in 'Children of the Jedi'.
