“This book will blow your mind”

Or at least, that’s what I was told. But seriously, you’ve got to see it to believe it. Lucasfilm has got a real powerhouse on this one…

JADED CONQUEST

Well ladies, all of you who complain there’s not enough sex mush in Star Wars… I’m afraid you’re going to get it. With a vengeance.

  1. OMG. Where is this one in the timeline?? I have a feeling it is going to be HOT.

    THANK YOU LFL. AT LAST!!!

  2. I wish they could have gotten Stephenie Meyer instead, but I guess she’s too big for Star Wars.

  3. Wow. This is going to be….ehm….interesting. In so many ways. Hopefully she goes for the same style she took up for the first few books of her series (i.e., Anita still saving herself), instead of the later ones which are basically just porn with a little story thrown in.

  4. I am soo excited. It’s just too cool. FINALLY a Star Wars book for us GIRLS! Ladies, get in line now because it’s gonna be hot and I can’t wait.

    And if we all buy this book, maybe they WILL be able to get Stephanie next! I want Jedi Vampires!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    So excited!!!!!

  5. OOOOOH!!!!! If they get SM for the next one, maybe the Jedi can SPARKLE!!!!111!!!

  6. OOOO!!! When SM writes the next one it can be a cross over and Reneesme can fall in love with Ben Skywalker and Jacob and Ben will fight over their OTL! TEAM JEDI!

  7. Hrm…hope this is more like the early books. I -um-heard things about her later ones.

    Still it’s more Mara. I may have to read it anyway. Ooo, maybe there’ll actually be some pre-engagement romantic tension between Luke and Mara. That would so rock.

  8. I loved Luke when I was younger, but now I know better.

    Mara — Leave the stupid Jedi and find yourself a vampire, girl!

  9. Laurell K. Hamilton? Are you guys NUTS? This is just more proof that Del Rey DOESN’T GET IT. First they kill Mara, and now they’re going to let LKH turn her into a raging slut? I AM DONE.

    Well, except for Republic Commando: Tipoca Thunder. But after that, Del Rey is getting no more of my money!

  10. given Hamilton’s Blake series tend to use titles that are also key place names in the book.. what type of establishment is “Jaded Conquest” ;)

  11. Yikes, they are letting LKH have a go at Mara? Scary thought. I used to love LKH before she turned into a pornster, sigh.

  12. “That’s not a light-saber in my pocket, I’m just happy to see you…”

  13. Guys, I’m pretty sure this is an April Fool’s joke. Like when a few years back they claimed that Willow was going to be a part of the SW universe.

  14. I was actually looking forward to reading a new book about Mara until I remembered that this is April Fools Day.

  15. I’m sorry that you think a SW novel geared towards female fans is a joke. :(

  16. Nice April Fools joke…

    I wouldn’t have approved anyway. Star Wars is not about sex…there’s plenty of that out there.

  17. When i first saw this novel announced.. i was like no way, this is an April Fools joke

  18. UM . . . does any one other than me smell April Fool’s written all over this?

  19. These comments are hilarious. I think a Judy Blume novel about Jaina would have been better.
    I have to admit that the tinkering with the NJO timeline joke was a lot more surprising.

  20. Is this real or an April fools joke cuz i can’t find any other info about it!!!!

    I loved Luke when I was younger, but now I know better.

    Mara — Leave the stupid Jedi and find yourself a vampire, girl!
    SHE IS A VAMPIRE!!! HOW ELSE CAN SHE BE 68 OR WHATEVER AND STILL LOOKS LIKE SHE IS ON HIGH SCHOOL? THAT’S HER M.O., SHE STICK HERSELF WITH THE MOST POWERFUL MAN SHE CAN FIND AND SUCKS THE LIFE OUT OF THEM. I BET SHE DATED A LOT OF GUYS BETWEEN THE EMPEROR AND LUKE THAT COULD SUPPLY HER WITH ENERGY……………………….

  22. Is this an April Fool’s joke? If it is, it isn’t fair. Mara’s the best of the Star Wars Characters!

  23. Good thing this is april fool’s… I think I would throw up if there was a star wars romance. I also think I would kill myself before I read anything Stephenie Meyer writes
