User blog:Brandon Rhea/ANNOUNCEMENT: New Alternative Saga Novel

The members of the Alternative Star Wars Saga are pleased to announce that were adding a new novel and a new author to our continuity. The author is Brent Krajewski, a relatively obscure user on Star Wars Fanon going by the name Brent K. However, he has a much higher profile on TheStarWarsRP.Com, where he is the administrator named Nexus (currently under the name “The Great Gatsby”). Brent is a great writer, and he was one of the first people I came to for a “novel deal” as we’ll call it in the interest of professionalism. After an approval from the other authors in the Alternative Saga, particularly Wayne Lipman III and Solus, I’m announcing Brent’s entry into the Alternative Saga here.

So what is he writing? Good question! I actually offered him two choices, one of which he rejected and the other he accepted. The one he accepted is tentatively titled Disciple. Set around 40 BBY, it’s about how Jedi Master Jard Dooku and then-Jedi Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi, both central characters in my novel Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One, come together as master and apprentice. Other characters involved will be Xanatos, a former apprentice of Dooku’s who has turned to the dark side of the Force, and Jedi Padawan Bruck Chun. A release date for the novel has not yet been set, although it has been discussed that it will either be released all at once or in parts upon its completion. The basics of the storyline can be found, for now, in the first two chapters of The Chosen One.

So we’re very excited about this and I’m looking forward to what Brent’s going to provide us, which I know will be great. It will eventually be released onto Star Wars Fanon and TheStarWarsRP.Com into the .PDF eBook format. Stay tuned for more updates and potential spoilers!
