It seems to me the Star Wars paperbacks are taking forever to come out so i've been reading the Game Of Thrones books. I am waiting for Darth Plageus in paperback though. A good Star Wars jumps ahead of the rest.

I hope to get that same book on paperback too. Might just break down and get the hardback version.

I do have a few Zombie books coming Z.A. Recht and a couple new authors. I also have another Star Carrier book coming in from Ian Douglas. If like military Sci Fi this guy is a good author too.

My favorite sci fi author was John Ringo and his Posleen War Series, but now he is caught up in other things and to be honest seems pretty arogant when fans ask about more Posleen War Series books so I may have to get a new favorite author.

There are a couple of Star Wars books that I'm waiting to come out on paperback, like Darth Plageus, and another new one by Timothy Zahn which looked real good.

On a complete different note, I recently finished "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter."  I have to say, it was quite good!  As a history buff, I know a lot of Lincoln's actual history, and the fact that they took real events and meshed them very carefully with vampires came to be a great read.  I cannot WAIT for the movie to hit now!

I just seen the trailer to Abe Lincoln at the Prometheus midnight showing. It looks better than it sounds. I just started reading Red Harvest. I still think Star Wars and Zombies shouldn't mix. My appreciation of zombie stuff has gone up since I started watching The Walking Dead, but there's too much cool stuff left in Star Wars that the zombies should be kept to a minimum.

You know Mike I had the same impression when I first read the synopsis of Death Troopers, but after reading Death Troopers and Red Harvest I have to say they fit pretty well. To each his own though and the SW Verse is so vast and varied who knows what else we will see. Its probably only a matter of time till we see Lycans and Vampires.

I liked Death Troopers too, and i'm about halfway through Red Harvest and love it so far. With the whole Clone Wars zombie stuff (Zombie Geonosians) , the Old Republic's Rakghouls, and now books it's just a bit much.
To each their own. Personally, I cannot get enough of Jedi, Sith, and Stormtroopers!

I am recovering from sinus surgery, and as I had to get a skin graph my doctor has said no outside stuff and minimal inside movement and no heavy lifting so I am reading. I finished up the Game of Thrones Series to date and am now reading Darth Plaeguis even though I don't know how to spell it. It is pretty cool seeing the background of Palps. I also found out who I had been called Darth Plaeguis is actually Darth Tenebrous (the Bith). There is a ton of alien stuff in this book so I bought (at Ollies) a compendium of SW Tech, Droids, and Aliens for ten bucks. It was a steal as the book is huge! Plaeguis is a Munn by the way. I though he was a Bith. Duh. I learn something new every day.

Read the entire catalogue of zombie graphic novels from FUBAR Press over the weekend! Great read for those that like that kind of story. I will be putting up a full review either tonight or tomorrow night.
