Suddenly passersby and visitors turned out to be Cafe Orchestra - and played apparently to the surprise of everyone there a very familiar tune. Enjoy!

New Star Wars Books Coming

At the New York Comic-Con, it was announce that there are a couple of great new Star Wars books coming our way!
  • A new Han Solo novel - The book will be written by James S. A. Correy and will be part of the new "Rebels" series of books that are set in the Classic Trilogy era.
  • Tentatively titled Kenobi - The book will be written by John Jackson Miller an is set after the events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith and is scheduled for late 2013. John Jackson Miller wrote: "Kenobi is a sweeping story that’s part epic western, part high-stakes drama, part romance — but it’s all Star Wars, taking place in the early days of Obi-Wan’s exile to Tatooine. I shouldn’t expand too much beyond what Random House said on its panel and Facebook page, but I can say this. I’ve been working on this concept for years — I’ll talk more about that process later on — and the basics are pretty simple. The greatest hero in the galaxy faces his toughest challenge yet: He must stop being Obi-Wan — and learn to live as Ben."
