| New Timothy Zahn Novel | |
 The Official Star Wars
Site has announced that bestselling author and fan-favorite Timothy Zahn
will return to the Expanded Universe of Star Wars novels with a new
full-length story to be published by Del Rey Books in 2011. The new tale of
intrigue and action is set in the time of classic Star Wars trilogy, not
long after the events of his previous novel, Allegiance. The legendary
heroes return -- Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia and Chewbacca -- along
with some of Zahn's most popular creations: Thrawn, Mara Jade and the Hand of
Judgment stormtroopers.
The book is as yet untitled, but is slated to debut in fall of 2011, the year that marks the 20th anniversary of his first Star Wars novel, Heir to the Empire, the blockbuster book that launched the modern era of Star Wars publishing. This is great news! | |

| Star Wars Fads | |
The Official Star Wars Site has a great article about Star Wars Fads! While most of us tend to think of the Star Wars saga as timeless, classic, and unyielding to the frivolous whims of pop culture, there have actually been a few notable infractions made on the merchandising front in years past: Remember the van craze of the '70s? How about those latch-hook rugs from the '80s? And the '90s pogs? Be sure to go see all 16 pages of these fad items like Star Wars Vans!
