Appreciate it Veneficus.

Holy crap, I didn't even realize Ascension came out today, and it's 410 pages making it one of the longest sw books in the EU. I hope this one doesn't suck.

**** this gay earth.

I hope Neb is alright. 🙁

Rioters burn down your life and leave you destitute?

On an unrelated note, LucasArts decision to release EU books as Ebooks has made them much easier to get off the interwebs.

Actually looking for one now, although I've noticed it takes a few days before someone gets around to removing the DRM and converting it to a pdf.

I have read the Revan excerpt from Star Wars Insider 127.

Revan and Canderous are on some frozen Hothlike planet where they meet up with some Clan Ordo leftovers. Revan is hiding the fact that he's a Jedi as to avoid angering the Mandalorians. The canon version of Revan apparenly took Two Weapon Fighting, since Revan uses dual blaster pistols. The two of them are trying to find Mandalore's Mask.

They meet the leader of this Ordo camp where Revan trades insults with her in Mandalorian. That's it.

The writing is... well it's Drew. Revan comes off as being... well IDK, there wasn't a lot to work with. He kind of reminded me of one of Luke's Jedi or Luke himself.

His dialogue is probably less refined and more casual than what I had in mind, that's for sure. It's not terrible. It's clear that Revan has a sense of humor, even from things in-game like "meatbag", but without a voice and a face to form the words on paper, the dialogue can come off as unusually non-serious. Must try to think of Revan having a Coruscanti accent, I suppose.

Much appreciated the link, thanks boss

I believe he's talking about the areas around Moscow. He's probably in one of the many summer homes (Dacha.)

Precisely. A dacha outside Moscow. One day these godless savages will start implementing air conditioning.

Well, it is the former Soviet Union. Godless savages takes a bit to wear off.

I spent the last week traveling Scandinavian countries and I am lucky as hell to live in the US. I Americanized this part of the world as best as I could, it's time to return stateside.

Yeah, this place will be great until the zombies get here.

Yea but who ISN'T prepared for thr zombie apocalypse?

Apparantly people are worried you guys will be infected by our riots soon. Maybe you should stay where you are Beefy.

If a riot like that happens here, there will be dead people in the streets.
