NJOE spotted a new title for Joe Schreiber’s next Star Wars novel over at Random House: Red Harvest.
The novel’s previous title, Black Orchid, was nixed somewhere along the line for sounding “like a romance novel.” I don’t see how yet another riff on the already-tired Blue Harvest thing is an improvement, so here’s hoping this turns out to be a placeholder. (via)

Black Orchard sounds like a romance title? Huh?

It would help if I got the original title right… It was Black Orchid.
Flowers = girls = romance? Who knows.

Blue Harvest is actually a riff on Red Harvest (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Harvest), which makes this a copycat title.

I’m a little bummed that they changed the name, NGL.

So they are harvesting black orchids, and then they all get hay fever and start to run amok, thereby reddening said harvest? That’s gonna be a real page-turner, mesa thinks. *lol*

Red Harvest? sounds like a sequel to Red Dawn or Crimson Tide or The Scarlet Letter.
but yeah – better than Black Orchid.
