January 2013 Preview
Happy New Year!
Lex again, here to kick off 2013 for the blog. Today is January 1st, and it’s also the release date for Timothy Zahn’s heist caper novel Scoundrels. Be sure not to miss Kay’s review, which also goes up today.
The Clone Wars and more – Season Five resumes with the last two episodes of the D-Squad arc, followed by the long-anticipated return to the Darth Maul storyline – and Megan’s reviews will be back, too. Also look for the conclusion of the Fel Roundtable from Mary, Kay, and Tricia.
Interviews – This month brings the second half of Mary’s interview from Celebration VI with Troy Denning. Priya also shares an interview with Leigh Butler of TOR.com, who wrote a lengthy recap and commentary on Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series leading up to the release of Brandon Sanderson’s final novel in the series this month.
