Forum:Alternative Saga - Episode I



Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace is fan novel by Brandon Rhea and is the first episode of a re-imagining of George Lucas’ Star Wars Saga called the Alternative Star Wars Saga. The novel takes place in the same year as George Lucas’ Episode I – The Phantom Menace and deals with the emergence of Annikin Skywalker as the possible Chosen One and the start of the Clone War. The novel also serves as the beginning of a relationship between Annikin and Padmé Naberrie, a Jedi Padawan serving at the Jedi Temple on the city-world of Coruscant.

The author devotes much of the novel to the beginning of the end of the Galactic Republic and the mystery surrounding a supposed Clone Army and the mystery of the Mandalorian Clans, led by Jango Fett. The rest of the novel is devoted to the rise of Annikin Skywalker and how he feels about a less-than-welcoming Jedi Order and Padmé Naberrie, who also disagrees with the principles of the Jedi Code regarding love. Another major theme is deception, most notably with the ruthless slavers of the Trade Federation such as Viceroy Nute Gunray and his assistant, Rune Haako.

So far, I'm enjoying writing this and I've got a great story ready for those who are reading it. This novel launches the Skywalker Saga of the Alternative Star Wars Saga. It's going to be one hell of a ride, so make sure your seat backs and tray tables are in their upright and locked position. Kids, don't try this at home: without further adieu, here is Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace chapter by chapter:


 * Prologue - The Tragedy

Alternate Titles
If you guys have any suggestions for titles that are still in the style of The Phantom Menace (basically, "The *adjective* *noun*" or "A *adjective* *noun*" like "The Phantom Menace" or "A New Hope"). If "Balance of the Force" is the best you've got (I can't tell you how many times people have suggested that as a title for anyone's Episode I), I'd suggest not suggesting anything at all. - President Brandon Rhea  (Pressroom)   (Accomplishments)  08:22, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
