Lost Tribe Changes

Author John Jackson Miller made some interesting comments today on his blog. Lost Tribe of the Sith: The Collected Stories hits stores today, and the anthology of eBooks apparently has a few changes I missed when I read the collection.

If you have the eight e-books, you’ll notice that there are a number of minor changes in this edition. As the stories were written over the course of several years, I took the opportunity to make some additional corrections and to address some minor continuity issues, most involving integration with the maps in this edition. The collected edition thus becomes the operative version of these stories, for continuity purposes. (And the individual e-books are digital collector’s items at this point anyway. With the publication of this edition, the e-books are no longer available as single free downloads — the promotion they were part of, for the Fate of the Jedi novels, having concluded.)

So if you’ve read the eBooks already, you’ll want to read them again, especially if you’re a stickler for continuity. Not only is the The Collected Stories an anthology, but it’s now the definitive version of the stories.

A Look at ‘Hard Targets #2’

Artist Stephane Roux has posted the cover for Agent of the Empire: Hard Targets #2 on his blog (which we got a first look at in May). He shares some details about the characters and their design with some nice early drafts of the cover.

Here is a glimpse at the upcoming one. The Pirate girl had to have a UK TV series ” the Avengers’ Emma Peel ”  look. And the bearded guy and ” Alan Rickman in Prince of Thieves ” kinda look. I think he’s related, in the story, to the Count Dooku Lineage. So I tried to inject a little bit of that too. Yet, some people think I drew myself in the picture. Go figure.
